Goodbye Piccadilly by 4160 Tuesdays is a Amber Floral fragrance for women and men. Goodbye Piccadilly was launched in 2014. The nose behind this fragrance is Sarah McCartney.

'Goodbye Piccadilly is a perfume inspired by the women who took over men’s jobs during WW1. “I first made this perfume for London Transport Museum’s Friday Late event, Goodbye Piccadilly, in May 2014. It was for a talk about the kind of perfumes that would have been worn at the start of World War 1, so I researched the materials, then couldn’t resist creating small batch of perfume in honour of my Great Aunt Hilda who had worked on the Middlesbrough trams while Uncle Percy was in a prisoner of war camp. The odd thing was that the result smelled exactly like my Aunt's living room when I was a child. It went down so well, I decided to make more., explains perfumer Sarah McCartney.

Violets and vanilla were quite new in perfumery at the start of the 20th Century, and as they were synthetic (ionones and vanillin) they were available much more widely, and affordable for working women. We also used lavender and patchouli, more traditional materials, and iso butyl quinoline, which was used with patchouli to create the first Russian leather fragrances.' -Info from the 4160 Tuesdays website.

So I’m the only one who thought this smelled like burnt hair OR maybe I’m in the middle of a mini stroke?
Hard pass, either way. Scrubber.

Oh, this one I love and may need to buy a bottle of. I feel this is Anne of Green Gables in a bottle. Anyone who knows me knows just how much of a praise that is. It's sensible, but expresses wonderment and imagination. Starts off as a musk candy but then goes for the vanilla, violets and iris creating a strange but beautiful nostalgic fragrance that eventually goes down the vanilla/ leather route. The leather in this is soft and fluffy - like velvet. To see that Sarah has likened this to a living room makes all the sense in the world. The beauty is in the top, middle and base. Amazing all the way through. Almost impossible to find anything to dislike about it (will get back to you when I find something)

I feel more like a Victorian noble lady than a working gal suffragette wearing this. To me it’s a sweet candied violet with a vanilla dry down. But I really don’t mind, it’s gorgeus and I want to bathe in I ( which I just did).

One of my all-time favourites from my entire collection - I only discovered it in 2018 but it quickly became one of my most worn fragrances. I love it to bits, it is a mesmerizing perfume. Fluffy and friendly lavender conjuring up associations with lavender ice cream or lavender pastries. Cooling and sweet, inviting at the same time. It has excellent longevity and projection on my skin, one of the most potent perfumes I own and this is rare as my skin devours most perfumes quite quickly.

Colour: dark purple
Texture: velvet
Mood: pensive but hopeful

Did I mention I love it? ❤
