SapphicPerfumes

Je suis peu ici du coup je n'ai pas encore beaucoup parlé politique, mais en vrai le fait de faire partie d'une organisation, de pouvoir gérer ça collectivement avec mes camarades, aide beaucoup à gérer l'effarement et l'angoisse.

A man carries a coffin with a skull on the front and spray painted on the side "we're here we're queer we hate the fucking president"

ACT UP, 1990

Sending thoughts and prayers, still haven't recovered from Fleur du mal

As for The Mariner's Rhyme, it smells like everything that lives under the sea and will carry forever the memory of the sea (it's both a threat and a promise)

L'Heure de Proust is a beautiful tea and madeleine scent, very light, a more balanced and elegant version of One Umbrella for Two (which for me lacks nuance)

Bonjour ! This morning I'm wearing 1900 L'heure de Proust, by Les Bains Guerbois.
I also sprayed on my wrist a risky one: Francesca Bianchi kindly sent me a discovery sent so I'm trying The Mariner's Rhyme (pretty sure it's the only one that doesnt include cinnamal)

Tea & Rock n Roll actually works with the remaining smoke from AdP Leather, would have to find a non fruity leather to wear underneath. Maybe TF Ombre?

Bonjour ! Today I used a bottle of AdP Leather I bought on vinted ages ago and kind of abandoned on suspicion of being a fake (raspberry and rough leather), only to remember why I thought it was a fake. Washed it off and used Voyages imaginaires Tea & Rock n Roll - photorealistic earl grey tea

Il a même eu droit à un "oh wow" de mon camarade Lo. Mon camarade Lo sachez-le n'aime pas le parfum c'est donc une review utile et pertinente.

Hier pour la Wet je portais Thé noir de Le Labo et il a eu : du succès

Great now im gay on main

I'm talking about Immaginazione by Italian brand Fornasetti (480 euros, mind you), inspired by XIXth century soprano Lina Cavalieri, and the scent is just as beautiful as her eyes

Je vais pleurer c'est si beau

Dans les parfums dits propres il y a vraiment deux échelles, ceux qui sentent le 📢 propre 📢 (Acne Studio je pense à toi) et ceux qui murmurent, délicats et complexes et aussi doux que se cacher sous la couette un jour de brouillard

Extremely ashamed to tell you that I, once again, bought a sample of a perfume too expensive for me, and fell in love

My favorite setting to test samples - a blanket, a good thriller (Yellowjackets!) and a weird scent on my wrist: this morning, Graphite by Mad et Len

I expected a lot from Mad et Len, from which I tried Black Musc (an ambery floral, very opulent, a bit too agressive for me) and Red Musc (sure, it's clean and soft and pretty, but it also smells like a bathroom cleaner)
Still have to try Graphite though, hopefully this one will be more interesting

Devastated to say the new samples I purchased from Nose yesterday are a flop, thankfully I also repurchased one of Parfumer h Charcoal - it was my Christmas perfume and it went so well with the cold winter mornings at my parents' house in the country

Cette histoire de tiktok me déprime un peu, les Américains représentent un tiers de mon audience mais si Musk rachète l'app va devenir comme X avant elle un énième pôle de propagande de l'extrême droite. À mon échelle et même si je postais rarement j'y étais un peu attachée finalement

I strongly agree 😂

So when you're late for work and grab an unlabeled sample thinking what's the worst that could happen, it appears the worst indeed does happen. It's Parfumerie particulière Typewriter and you now smell like a goat wearing leather gear. Great perfume though

comparable to what one would smell when smelling the woods soaked with incense of an ancient church

at the bottom of the pyramid to increase longevity)
It results in something dark and mysterious - one of the first images that came to me when smelling it was the sinister one of the Natural History Museum -,

[ENG] Today Mirabilis, from L'Artisan parfumeur, an old favorite. With all my disenchantment with amber woods I find this one interesting in the aim of the nose Daphné Bugey to combine explicitly synthetic materials and materials which evoke the ancient and the sacred (instead of hiding them

comparable à ce qu'on sentirait en sentant les bois tout imbibés d'encens d'une église ancienne

(au lieu de les cacher au fond de la pyramide pour augmenter la longévité)
Ça aboutit à quelque chose de sombre et mystérieux - l'une des premières images qui m'était venue en le sentant était celle, sinistre, du muséum d'histoire naturelle -,

[FR] Aujourd'hui Mirabilis, de L'Artisan parfumeur, un très vieux coup de cœur. Avec tout mon désamour pour les bois ambrés je trouve celui-ci intéressant dans la volonté de la nez Daphné Bugey d'allier des matériaux explicitement synthétiques et des matériaux qui évoquent l'ancien et le sacré

Kind of happy to be able to go back to simple sample sniffing like I used to do on mastodon with 20 followers

Hi BlueSky, this is SapphicPerfumes from TikTok. I live in France, but a third of my followers are in the US, so we'll try this as well and see if it sticks!
Starting from scratch after sharing a sense of community with 16k people isn't easy but I'm excited to explore this format.
