Today is cold. First snow of the season. Christmas Markets start to open this weekend. Vespers felt right paired with Asian Plum.
Cycle of Renewal and Rest
Winter has been symbolic of rest, reflection, and the quietude needed for regeneration. It’s a time to embrace stillness and allow for the decay of the old, paving the way for new growth.
Spring represents renewal, vitality, and hope. It embodies the promise that life, even after the darkest moments, can emerge new and flourish.
Embrace the periods of inactivity and hardship as necessary precursors to rejuvenation and progress.

I enjoy the interplay between the jasmine sambac and the leather notes in both Oro Valley and Tom Ford’s Ombré Leather. Stirling’s homage, which is the Buena Vista Wetshaving Social Club selection for today, is spot on to the original.

Honey sweetened florals and royal fragrances for today’s theme. While not quite gourmands, smelling these scents may be enough to give you diabetes.

Looks like we were thinking alike yesterday.
This scent manages to be green and lively without any of the sharp edges…Just happy, butter smooth, vernal green.
This is a spot on description!

The dark, woody lavender from Flowers in the Dark never fails to satisfy. Woodshop played on the wood notes and took it to another level.
