StickWitch

An amorphous mix of oppressive, piceous ritual incense, macerated kelp, sea salt, sticky dark ocean plants, and… mixed chocolates. I'm not sure if I got a terrible bottle, or if my ability to smell has mutated... but this smelled like a nursing home infested with sentient tootsie rolls. It was like death and rotten chocolate. I gagged when I smelled it, and then had to air out the room to get rid of the smell. I tried wearing it in the hopes that the scent might change. It did get slightly less awful, but I ended up just giving it away.

So I've lurked for a while here and just signed up so I could post on this thread. I recently got some money and want to buy perfumage, and thus want recommendations. =P My name's Rachael, I'm 19 and working at an engineering company as a grunt. Moved out of my parents house when I was 17, worked at a library for a while, moved north to go to school for virtual technology and design, dropped out because I couldn't afford it. I'm engaged. I've always been a huge reader and I collect books obsessively - I have a several hundred of them I lug around despite the fact I move often. I'm obsessed with fantasy worlds and imagination, and am in the process of finishing writing a novel. I also ballroom dance quite a bit. I am a Star Trek fan, obsessed with logic, a rather emotionless cynic. Some people have nicknamed me "Spock." I am a Myers-Briggs INTP. Things must be internally consistent. I am skilled with words, debate, I carry an extreme distrust for rhetoric. I cannot handle large crowds. I am good at real time strategy games. I am a very cheerful person, largely because being unhappy is uncomfortable, and I like comfort. I make the best out of every situation and tend to smile constantly. I was raised in an extremely religious protestant household, but left Christianity because I found it was internally inconsistent despite the fact my emotions were still involved. I was homeschooled and am still very naive and trusting. I tend to be very quiet and shy, preferring to watch from a corner and keep my thoughts to myself. Unless it's a strong issue on which people are stupid - like politics or religion. Might have just been my crappy upbringing of deprivation, but I'm a fan of the whole 'sex' thing and like it often, intense, and kinky. I have an affinity for horror and dark, dramatic writing. I am drawn to the goth, the creepy, the vampire (but am a little too cheerful to pull it off). I like rain and moss and dust and darkness and musk and longing and fantasy, but I don't like fruits or foods or blatant flowerishness. Physically I am tall, skinny and pale, with long black hair and green eyes. Anyway that's about it for me. I'd love to hear what scents you recommend!
