#perfumesky and #fragrancesky peeps and anyone else who can recall their first fragrant experience:

Can you describe how each of you fell down the scent rabbit hole?
A #sotd fitting for the final part of the Twilight saga (ironically watched MST3K style). Dry and withering violets sitting on top of sun warmed stone. The Palo Santo became mesquite on my skin like an actively burning wood fire from the nearby crematorium. Headless burning vampire bodies.

Timely, no?
Perfection
Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

#sotd Vintage Tuesday:L'Heure Bleue. First #Guerlain that was noticeable to my nose. It ✨bloomed✨ with effervescent citrus bubbles rising from powdery florals to entertain my nose. More reflective than melancholy. Better than today #perfumesky; ambrox choked Architects Club. Time to try Eau Duelle!

One of my favorite songs from a beloved duo.
This clip got lost in what has been a truly gruesome week. But it deserves a home.

How Tears for Fears developed “Everybody Wants to Rule the World”. 🎸

Last for the the ink theme, I had to revisit my little sample of #sotd Courreges Le Messager. Less Ambroxan (not listed) than I noted before, but the scent bore a strong resemblance to Good Chemistry's Not That Vanilla that subs cocoa and smoky amber for dry ink. Same vibe✨😎

#sotd Solstice Scents The Mirror. Trace of sugared pine on top of a bed of soft cocooning musks of wood and passing hind. Unfortunately I find the cardamom C02 note too distracting from the story I feel the scent is trying to whisper to me.

#sotd Viktor and Rolf Magic Dirty Trick. The sharp cutting clary sage offers a sharp contrast to the traditionally powdery iris, violet, and as I'm learning through this exercise, ink. I see the magicians hat. Crisp black against the sleight of hand glove. A dirty trick indeed. #scentsky #perfumesky

A break from ink notes for a comforting #sotd Paraphrase Grasslands to accompany me for dental work (🚨root canal🙀). Soft gauzy grasses filtered through lavender and sweet tobacco, like a memory faded with time. A little too faint and devoid of my personality so 🙂‍↔️ #perfumesky #scentsky #fragrancesky

Continuing with the ink note, #sotd YSL Muse. Robust in its grace, like the feathered quill writing truths we hold evident. A light aromatic vanilla that could go powdery but decidedly stays put as the ink sets to dry.

#sotd La Curie Geist. Leather boots are warming by a stone hearth. The wet leaves tracked in squish with fresh inky dampness, turn to decay of dying foliage, and finally soften with the disintegration of ashy leaves with the wear. Wearable art but🙂‍↔️

#sotd Kylie Minogue Darling. (Hopefully!) On the tail end of a nasty cold and finally able to smell. A punchy passion fruit opening settles into waters scented with Lychee and Boronia. Drydown is a fresh Freesia hand cream. Beautiful bargain!

In addition to perfumes, I also enjoy music and dogs. Here's an excellent example of those last two: (sound on)
This is Georgie. He heard sirens outside his window. Thought he would show them how it's done. 14/10 excellent vibrato Georgie (TT: georgietheboxr)

#sotd @stoneandwit.bsky.social Her Skirt is Stars. Fiery opening evoking flying gods masquerading as streaking comets in the sky. Smoke from temple fires burning in the distance. But for the first time since sampling this house, I find it loses dimension in the drydown to a flat smoked vanilla.

#sotd teeny tiny drops of Naomi Goodsir Nuit de Bakélite in honor of the otherworldly vines crawling through the Upside Down. Texture is like the blacker than black mind water El walks through. If gasoline oil was made of crushed green leaves and stemmy heady florals #scentsky #strangerthings

Cheers to the last week of a very strange year outside of my ear buds. Along with the sanctuary of my marriage, these songs, stories, and insights helped to keep me sane. I'm so very grateful my husband introduced me to podcasts all those years ago and this year, I reintroduced myself to music 💜 🎶

#sotd L'interdit Rouge Ultime. The Ambroxan lends a fuzzy felted feeling to the heavy embellished white and cream jacquard of all four flowers woven in harmony. The cocoa adds a delicious depth like a truffle you just popped into your mouth when you thought no one was looking.

Sneaking a few last minute 2025 purchases before the buzzer. Used my reward $$ to try a few things I'm sure I'll love. Also low balled a few Mercari Sucrebeille oils...

...And ordered some samples...

...2026 will need to see some decluttering no doubt 🧐
