You are one of the few who find their way to this page! I do include my photos on some posts occasionally.

I saw a bunch of wordpress symbols running along the bottom of your page…. thought it was a design typo…. then realized they all lead to hidden pages that have nothing to do with fragrance B)

Hmm, not sure why the icons appear like that. I started this blog back in 2015 before I became obsessed with fragrance (similar to your story, I guess), but soon ran out of things to write about—that is, until perfume revitalized it!

now i’m afraid I will run out of fragrances to write about! But I just ordered 11 more Aftelier samples. Weird how she keeps coming up today!
I think I found your fantastic blog while trying to see if anyone else was doing fragrance poetry or if I was the first. I think I wasn’t the first, but at the same time we are not really doing it in the same way B)

I try not to do too many straight-up fragrance reviews unless something drives me about a particular perfume, as I’m more interested in the personal aspect of these blogs.
You are the only one I know who writes poetry based on specific perfumes, so I think you own the space!

Honestly sometimes I look at what I’m doing and think it’s kind of silly, but then a lot of people seem to like it so I press on 😂
I especially liked your A-Z series but I think that can be hard to keep writing about. And now that I’ve found your art, I really like that, too.
Do you do a lot of interaction on here? Use tags when you post?

It’s a fresh way to think about perfumes—definitely keep doing it! 🙂
I’m glad you liked the Perfumed Alphabet series. It is hard to keep up because while the first few were more led by free association, I got pulled into wanting to describe the ingredients, which becomes more dry.
So far I’ve only used a few tags, because I don’t want to end up with a huge word cloud of random tags and lose track, but maybe I should use more.

I only use a handful of basic tags (perfume, poetry, writing, love etc). But I use them on every post. Because, as you probably know, if you don’t have some basic tags on your post, most likely no one will find them.

Also you inspired me to look up what TEMET NOSCE means. Also, other than the translation, the next most popular result is The Matrix. So I can only wonder how big of a Matrix fan you are 😉

I didn’t even know about that association! But yes, I greatly enjoyed The Matrix—especially ogling Keanu Reeves in that coat. And the Merovingians.
Are you a Matrix fan?

Yes but apparently not as big as you are! I had to google Merovingians and actually googling it didn’t help. But I had a feeling you were in the sleek black dress. Very Matrix-ish. VERY Trinity-esque.

Oh I see some now. I usually try to refrain from posting my picture. Too many women may start stalking me. Or maybe none will and my ego will take a hit.
