#SOTD : Ambrosia from Venus Invictus. This starts off as a sticky, decadent spiced honey fig, and dries into a musky, comforting, woody sweetness. I love a gourmand with grounding notes- and this has just enough cedar and incense and fern to balance out the indulgence.

Working at @immortalperfumes.bsky.social is fun because some days you're capping and labeling thousands of sample vials and some days you're just having a chill smell sesh

#SotD: Boneyard from Amorphous Perfumes (formerly Black Baccara). Earthy, dark, woody, spiced with clove and cardamom. Very grounding, slightly spooky.

SOTD: Tache de Café from Le Monde Gourmand (gifted). Peppery, papery, light. A lot of this brand's offerings run too sweet/generically mass-appealing for me, but when they hit, they really hit.

SOTD: Match Made in Heaven from Sorce. There's not much matcha to my nose, but who cares bc it's maybe the best vanilla/almond gourmand in my collection. After this, other vanillas are just too cloying or heavy or synthetic- nothing lives up to this pure waffle cone goodness

new notebook time! Couldn't find a single Leuchtturm hardcover A5 dotted in black in the entire greater Seattle area except for the 120gsm version- reserving judgement. Starting this off with my Moonman M100, inked with Diamine Oxblood.
