I just catalogued a few of my favorite indie fragrance oils on my site. This was one of my maaany pandemic hobbies, and it made me so happy to get the mail.

Have any of my Fragrance Friends ordered Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab's 2024 Halloween perfumes, yet? What did you get?
I'm so excited about the Black Lipstick perfume, and All Hallow's Oud.
Also: the ENTIRE Camilla line?!

If I crowdfunded a fragrance line based on my fictional multiverse, would that be a thing anyone would even be interested in? I've been developing the scents for about two years now, and I have 8 perfected so far!
The one I'm wearing right now is CHAOS, which is a blend of raspberry, baby powder, chamomile, patchouli, honey, and coconut. It is *divine.* I wish I could let you all smell it with the press of a button.
@ninsiana0 Oh. My. G-D, Writer's Blood sounds AMAZING! also I Am Made Strange Again 🤩
I'm also interested in Autumn Wandering and Kitten and the Falling Leaves
@jewwhohasitall for one thing, I'm looking forward to all the #IndiePerfume houses putting out their #BigHolidays perfume collections!
obviously, apple-and-honey and lulav-and-etrog scents will abound, but I'm looking forward to seeing what each house will bring to their unique collections 🥰
(OOC: I'm low-key thinking about making perfumes for Jewish holidays, so if anyone has strong feelings about what scents go with what holidays, DM me)
#IndiePerfume today I'm wearing Alkemia's Prophet and the Wanderer, which I got very recently during a sale of discontinued perfumes
https://alkemiaperfumes.com/products/discontinued-vintage-perfumes-very-ltd-quantities
I got it bc I've been wanting a desert-y perfume, and I wore it today solely because it was new, and I've already worn the other perfume I got from this sale (Silvern, v aquatic)
it's warm and spicy and ... dusty in an outdoors way (as opposed to a dusty attic), with hints of plant life and wildness. it wears well, with the hints of plant life etc fading in after the oil's been on the skin for a bit
I wasn't sure about it at first; I'm having mental health shit and I thought this wasn't the scent for my mood today, but it's actually really comforting, grounding even
notes: dry sand, desert grasses, mitti attar, the ozone of a dry thunderstorm, rotundone, Byakudan, Incienso, cassia,
desert roses
The new site for Goblincrow's perfume line (Pierrot Perfumery) is up at last and I was able to place my order there! Ravenstag will soon be mine in 10ml form.
I've been away from Mastodon for a bit, mostly because when I'm depressed, reflecting on things is hard. so I'm trying to come back again, which I guess means I'm slightly less depressed???
I also miss doing my #LifeStuff posts. they were helpful, so ... today's plans:
✓ breakfast
✓ play Tears of the Kingdom
- finish washing dishes
- maybe take a nap
- work
today's #IndiePerfume is Alkemia's Club des Hashischins: a sharp, smoky, complex scent. I don't have the spoons for more of a review, but I really like this one
currently going to grab sodas for caffeine!
so far:
✓ breakfast
✓ get dressed
✓ put on #IndiePerfume
✓ take out trash
✓ take out recycling
✓ quick errand
#bodyDouble chores:
- call HR about ADA/FMLA so I can call out for migraines again
- living room
- desks
- maybe even dishes
- put things where they belong
- if they don't have a home, find a home
- we'll see how much I'm able to get done after that
#IndiePerfume TIW Alkemia's 2023 Viridescent Alchemy (March). "Our alchemies are experimental perfumes blended intuitively for the season and with no written recipe. We release a new one every month."
wet: smells GREEN 🌿🍃 and dewy
drydown: it's fresh spring greens, a soft green, with a hint of sweetness and morning dew
VERDICT: I love it so much. it smells like touching grass
notes: A woodland wandering of fresh spring leaves, new grasses, dandelion stems, and the first white violets.
