If it had been foretold that an avatar would rise and resurrect the formaldehyde-preserved corpse of the art that once was perfume, Christopher Brosius would have been that man. Because his website is entitled "I hate perfume," we felt comfortable splurging for his aromas, which are truly transformative. His latest project is featured here.
I wonder where we can find his perfume? I personally have fears of wearing perfume. I've tried many, they all end up being too pungent to my own nose, and I can't escape from it.
I've enjoyed the smell of some perfumes of other people's. That's because the smell is brief, so it tends to be fresh. But once I try it on myself, after 1 hour, I start getting sick. Therefore, Brosius's "Where We Are There Is No Here" might be the final perfect perfume for me. But "Snow" sounds intriguing too.

I use Rose 31 (spray) + Vetiver 46 (balm). Warning: you will be hooked ;)

N has just enriched our holdings with "in the library" and "the wild hunt." both are incredible, though one is quite a bit more pungent. additionally, the spruce and cedar tea are transporting. would love to try snow! wet wood, eh? i wonder why that should be? some sort of Christmas tree association?

No, not pine, so much as the soaked wood and leaves that lie under the snow. In the library sounds fantastic. That is an endangered scent! I think 'wet pavement' would be. No worms, though.
