I’ll try harder to be more smarter next time.

I had to just pull the trigger and buy one so I would stop wasting my day staring at them lol

I too got black (I was so overwhelmed by choice and some others I was really leaning towards were sold out) gold cord, with a blush portfolio and just my two lil initials. Going to add my own charms too! Ugh I’m excited 😆

I ordered one today 🤭

It was so vivid and so meaningless

My mom’s husbands coworker died at her desk, she’d been on leave for stress, she had a heart attack and died within the first week she returned.

I was working a horrifically stressful job at the time I was told this story and I quit 1 week after hearing it.

You did an amazing job!

Ohh pretty, I was eyeing black too, how long have you had yours?

You nailed it.

I trust you. I labored over customization all morning only to have no combination in which all the elements are in stock.

As an avid journaler I am late to the Louise Carmen game and cannot tell if it’s popular in a Stanley Cup kind of way or in a The Row kind of way…

Hoping to create some for you ✨

Aquamate found its way into the mix during another session, I love your description, it’s such a good aquatic material. I like to work around the watermeloness of trusty Calone when I’m working out ocean accords, but maybe you’ve inspired me to give Aquamate some more play.

I have a suggestion for you. In times of trouble and strife, there is therapeutic benefit in being among trees and in physical contact with them. So if you can, go hug a tree today, the bigger the better. This huge old chinkapin oak is known as The Great God Tree.

Siting here sniffing on two scent strips dipped in two wonderfully aquatic raw perfume materials that are conjuring up some mystical foggy vibes.

Can’t wait to play with them more.

Ah hello again 🫶 thanks for sharing!

Thanks! I’m not so good at engagement here yet, I don’t feel so good at posting content either. I don’t feel like I have a good understanding of the app entirely (notifications are kinda weird, I don’t get the tabs/hashtags). I’m still getting used to it!

In honor of A Complete Unknown being nominated for 8 Oscars this morning, here is the Bob Dylan lore around the name of my perfume brand Thin Wild Mercury.

I made a perfume for girls who fall asleep in their makeup after a few drink cigarettes that smells like lipstick, leather, and vintage fur coats and I named it Girl of the Year.

Shots fired 🤭

Isn’t it more fun if we all take guesses?

Today I purposefully wore a fragrance that repulses me.

😍😘

I was inspired to create a perfume celebrating all of the significant cultural movements and events that all happened to culminate within Central Park’s Sheep Meadow

Girl Math 🧮 perfume edition

I started my own business so I would never hate having to go to work and I made my business totally online so I would never actually have to “go” to work.

Alas, here I am really wanting to avoid being online on any social media platform feeling like I’m trapped at my work, hating being here.

We will never run out of perfumes to wear.

If Blood on the Tracks was any less painful, it would be dishonest. If it was any less hopeful, it would be pointless.
