Long time, no write.

I originally revisited the site looking for one of my favorite discontinued, "Black Pearl". It seems to be long gone, alas.

Times have changed. "Scent free" workplaces have made me far less likely to purchase perfume for years. Adding on a return in force of my allergies (I was taken to an emergency room as an infant for the diagnosis) and I'm half scared to try out anything scented. This is frustrating, because I loved trying new scents, learning new notes, and studying out the perfumes morphed on me. However, nowadays I'm not even sure that a scent locket would be a good idea on a non-work day.

I do miss "Black Pearl", though.

While tidying up, I realized it'd been a while since I put any oils in my infuser, and started going through them. I found the resurrected "Three Witches" and, being a bit of a masochist, decided to give it a whiff. The paper-mill / Aroma of Tacoma scent is blessedly gone, though the meatiness of the mysterious "canned ham" is still an underlying note. Now that it's calmer, I'm considering trying the "leave the bottle open near a window" advice again.

I hope that all is well with you!
