Friday scent of the day 4/11 :: Now Smell This

Happy Toontown Friday! Our community project for today: scent a favorite cartoon character. Thanks go to Jalapeno for the idea.

What fragrance did you pick? As always, do chime in with your scent of the day even if you’re not participating in the community project.

I’m in more old school French: Dior Eau Sauvage for the Pink Panther, who I adored as a child, still adore now, and can hardly separate from the fantastic theme music by Henry Mancini. (The Sauvage name presumably fits for a panther, even if this one is more silly than wild, and the smell is just right for the “60s cool” theme music.)

Reminder: 4/18 is the World Heritage Day / International Day for Monuments and Sites. [This is sponsored by the International Council on Monuments and Sites, an NGO dedicated to the conservation, protection, use and enhancement of the world’s cultural heritage.] Pick a place you’ve visited, or would like to visit, that has “intangible cultural heritage”, tell us about it, and wear a fragrance you think fits for whatever reason.

And for those of you who like to plan ahead, see Scent of the day ~ Friday community projects 2025, where I’ll try (but usually fail) to have the next five or six weeks mapped out in advance.

Bonus watch: the Pink Panther in The Pink Pill, 1968. About 6 minutes although you might have to sit through an ad first.
