I fell in love with sphinx today. I wore it over a shadow. Much better performance!

I think it was Haviggi who gave us the heads up and Monsy posted swatches. After that, it was all over for me, lol
Did you see the swatch? Ugh, it's disgustingly gorgeous. I wants the precious.
No problem! I really wanted to get an idea of the time frame for stalking lol

I agree! It's not as nice to wear on its own like many of the other/older shades. The few times I did it, I also had fall out city on my cheeks, nose, everywhere. Much better luck over something.

Having a very TF day today! I used Platinum all over my lids, the Afternooner for face, and Le Mepris on my lip....loving the combo. The more I wear the palette, the more I like it.

OVER a shadow... now there's an idea. I hate that cream. Maybe I'll try it over a shadow and see if it works better for me. Thanks!

oh yeah, and it was a big nasty surprise because I used a primer and I don't even have that issue with TF's straight up glitters. But over another shadow, it behaved. It was kinda funny because on my lids it doesn't really pull that pretty shift, but the fall out glitters definitely did on my cheeks, lol.

Tom Ford announces the new women’s fragrance Orchid Soleil, to be out in July 2016. Orchid Soleil presents a summer version of the popular vamp perfume Black Orchid launched in 2006. In addition to the original, the editions of Velvet Orchid from 2014 and Black Orchid Eau de Toilette from 2015 are also available.
Orchid Soleil is a vibrant, radiant and sensual scent that is said to capture the magic of the most brilliant sunshine. The composition opens with spicy notes of pink pepper, bitter orange and cypress. Its vibrant heart blooms with red spider lily and tuberose, enveloped by the warm base of chestnut cream, vanilla, patchouli and orchid.
MUST HAVE THIS

I got the little rollerball of it. Will try it again because it faded quickly on me.
Can't wait for you to try it!
I have only tried four of his scents but I must say, they've all been quite distinctive, not generic at all.
I might get Grey Vetiver later on.

i find BO so obnoxious... and i can tolerate some super heavy scents. i love fragrances and collect them with a passion and i can see why some do love BO it is very different it is just not for me. every time i had to scrub it off my skin.
i do love soleil blanc, shanghai lily, noir pour femme, venetian bergamot and neroli portofino which i ordered yesterday and can't wait to get it

Nice collection!
Perfume and body chemistry is so peculiar.
I'm still looking for an everyday scent.
Have been using samples, Velvet Orchid and Narciso

Sadly, patchouli goes nuclear with my chemistry and usually overpowers everything and becomes unwearable. If it's not a major component I may be able to get away with it.

Love neroli portofino and soleil blanc but I think my favorite is tobacco vanille. Something weird about that scent that I like.

I saw it too today and got all excited!!! I have Black orchid and I really love Velvet even if I still don't have it in my collection it is on my wish list and even prefer velvet over Black Orchid.... I cant wait and smell it, what really made me curious is the tuberose in Orchid Soleil I love tuberose in perfume!!!
