Once readers have reported enough wear at this temperature, measurement replaces the editorial pick and is marked “Measured”, with the count.
معظم يوم العمل في المنامة (البحرين) في مكاتب ومولات مكيّفة، وخارجها تبلغ العظمى نحو ٣٧° من مايو إلى أكتوبر. في هواء بارد ومغلق يبقى العطر قريباً من الجلد، والروائح الصاخبة تملأ المكان على من حولك، فتناسب المسكية والبودرية والأخشاب الناعمة. هذه اختياراتنا للمكيّف، ونضيف إليها ما يقيسه القرّاء.
How we read the weather
Each city’s weather is today’s forecast — or, when that is unavailable, the ten-year average for the month, and we say which.
Each kind of weather has written-down families, and perfumes are ranked by what they share with them — “Editorial”. Once readers report enough wear at this temperature, “Measured” appears, with the count.
