Tired, had a hard day with some odd nausea, so I wore Five o’ Clock Au Gingembre as my #sotd to cut the ick. Ginger has a great anti-emetic effect - even the smell makes me feel better. The scent is sweet, fresh, and light.

So they sent this pic to me! Looks like the bottle from 1988!!

#scentoftheday Fleurs d’ Oranger by Serge Lutens. Green, fresh, a honeysuckle accord? And a BO cumin note. Surprising.

#scentoftheday was Tauer L’Air du Desert Marocain. Stuffy spice carried on a cool wind. Green bitterness underneath. And the smell of sweat. Potent, a bit sweet, and beautiful. It reminds me in an off kilter way of one of the skanky fougeres for hairy chested men in the 70s-80s, but more refined.

I love #CastlevaniaNocturne. Not least because of the Haitian Revolution references. Since next season we will see much more of the Haitian Revolution, let me recommend this book.
The Black Jacobins:
A history of the revolution in Haiti

GAS. Nothing but gas. Have you ever seen a background with this much detail in an animated show before?? (I mean if so I want to watch that show)

SPOILER for Castlevania -
My favorite cuntress is bank on #CastlevaniaNocturne.
It happens in the first ep of the new season so I’m not ruining much for you. But she’s back and she’s badder than ever in a brand new form 😭😭😭

#scentoftheday is Lolita Lempicka. A sweet licorice gourmand treat. Somehow cold, reminds me of chilled aniseed liquor (if it was sweet and I liked it.) someone described this as “whimsigoth.”

#scentoftheday is Feminité du Bois by Serge Lutens - The 2024 version is a beautiful woody cinnamon plum with a hint of floral. Mixed with 401 Bon Parfumeur, which is a more resinous, woodier cinnamon plum with more strength. Both remind me of plum jam, very winter appropriate. #fragrancesky

#scentoftheday is Ching Shih by Marissa Zappas. A mystical myrrh, osmanthus and gunpowder scent that somehow straddles winter and summer. It’s named after the most successful pirate in history. And definitely smells dangerous, sexy and smoky.

Vintage (ish) scent of the day is Gardenia by Elizabeth Taylor.
Sweet white floral with green elements. Naturally sweet though like flowers - not like a sugar bomb. Fresh, powdery and soft like petals. Three sprays equal arms length sillage and longevity of 3 hours

Cat under da bush. Like if you agree

Finally a great cheapie: Stash by SJP. With notes of grapefruit, sage, frankincense, cedar and Massoia wood, it’s a comforting citrusy woody fragrance without the “lemon Pledge” vibe. It’s given some brightness by the grapefruit, and sweetness from lily, and is totally unisex.

Orange Blossom by Lush is an addictive soapy-sunny treat. The orange blossom is grounded with neroli, making it more bitter aromatic citrus than sweet bubblegum. Beeswax, rosewood and animalics make this a heavier, deeper more “rough” perfume than a classic French orange blossom you might expect.

This is a new one for me. Ambre Sultan by Serge Lutens is a bay leaf & resins concoction with something animalic. It’s strong, spicy, sexual, and dangerous. It’s only safe to wear in public after the first hour or you may choke. After the first 2 hours it becomes likeable vanilla with weird cumin.

I really enjoy:
Ching Shih by Marissa Zappas. I get peachy osmanthus and smoky and metallic incense/gunpowder. There’s orris too. This is exactly what a pirate would smell like. The incense grounds and fortifies the osmanthus, making the whole concoction stronger.
