I don’t live in the U.S. but I’ll be there for three weeks in July with an accessible mailing address, so if I score a batshit patchouli sample, jubilation will ensue!
Wow! I think you have a burgeoning freelance career writing perfume descriptions should you decide to jump down that rabbit hole! Patchouli Intense sounds like the kind of drive-by I need for queering up my straightlaced & somewhat unimaginative colleagues at work.
Your descriptions of these are so compelling, I have never even wanted to buy perfume before and now I want them all. For me, it's the Universal Supreme - what you described is my favorite feeling in the whole world. That is what my gay heaven looks (smells) like.
My god, Krista, these scents that you find!! I feel like I’m LEARNING. I wish I’d been this adventurous when I was younger and femme. I think I had like…a pink Dior perfume with a little metal ribbon on it & maybe Body by Burberry? A friend had Mademoiselle by Chanel, I think? (I’m butchering the names here.) Anyway, she was absolutely loaded, so that scent became synonymous to money to me. I stole a spritz once. I think she noticed. Anyway, all of those were boring & basic & we needed better and gayer, so I’m healing my inner child when I read these missives. Your perfume recs are truly your 95 Theses posted to the church door!! (That reference should be sufficiently white Minnesotan enough, lmao.)
As for the giveaway… If I win, I trust you to pick one for me that’s the most gender fucked. I can’t tell from the descriptions, but I trust your taste.
Oh yeah and I’d sniff any of them but that patchouli is calling my name
I love everything about how you write about fragrance and I will keep eating it up THANK YOU
I’m obsessed with the way you describe perfumes! I’m picky about my perfumes but you make me want to buy them all, especially Universal Supreme.
If Universal Supreme can make me smell like a grown up cherry icee, I’m absolutely in
