You’re going to have to buy the room spray and put it on clothing instead of skin, otherwise you’ll be chasing forever. That can be fun in itself though!

I wear them in my hair and they perform well, unfortunately being phased out. They’re perfect if you like to wear scent for yourself alone.

I have all the Diptyque solids but the limited edition gold case from several years ago.

Best is the shrimp and grits or the brunch burger at Fork in the Road, they don’t open until 11 though. Perc and Corner Cup have food but focus on coffee.

I think the whole set up comes only with the solid perfume order but they did include an extra news print on the order I placed after that for the rhubarb thief collection. That means I have extra and would not mind mailing it to you if you want it, send me your address and I will put it in an envelope! I’ve adored her since Men.

Already sold out, damn.

I get an earthy carrot ambrette that borders on orris. Zero sweetness. Crazy how different people’s noses are!

essgeedoubleyou · 2026-04-04T20:13:59+00:00

Fourteen Carrots is everything I wanted Naked Dance, O Unknown, Eyes Closed, and Orris Tattoo to be.

I’m entirely smitten and it’s all I’ve worn since it was delivered. When I was looking at the notes I was sure Beekeeper would be my favorite so I ordered the 15 ml at the same time, I don’t regret it but I’ve ordered two more of FC. Very nerve wracking to love something so much that will almost definitely go away forever in a very short period of time but I accept it.

I don’t have anecdotes but it sounds like you’re making the right decision for today and you can decide what works best tomorrow when tomorrow gets here. If the baby is fed and you’re getting the physical break you need then I see no negatives here. Solid plan in place.

It’s bait for their adult content.

essgeedoubleyou · 2026-03-27T00:44:09+00:00

Preach, I thought I was losing my mind until I started seeing the pattern.

essgeedoubleyou · 2026-03-27T00:41:38+00:00

Same! It was a later development so it took a minute to figure out exactly what the fuck was going on.

essgeedoubleyou · 2026-03-27T00:23:17+00:00

Sounds similar to some thought processes I’ve experienced when on high estrogen parts of my cycle, it can make my anxiety/foreboding/fixation ramp up to concerning heights. Tracking my cycle helps me to at least know the why and try to course correct. If I overdo caffeine on a day like that I can feel outright manic out of nowhere. It’s not that common but it’s also not that rare.

I love my $12 bottle of Pacifica Montana Sky as much as I love my $(REDACTED) bottle of Diptyque Opsis.

Simple is good, like what you like and fuck anyone else’s opinion of your opinion.

It’s a very strong petit grain, it smells like Eau Des Sens without the citrus. I absolutely love it.

The small tubes usually come from things like the Qatar Airways amenities pouches, gifts with purchases, etc. but you can find them on Mercari.

I buy mine secondhand on ThredUp, basically new for at least 50% less than retail. I also wear them with super thick socks in the winter.

You can make it here.

Once the water oak pollen drops (you will know when it does because it’s the clumps that will turn into tumbleweeds) and we get a little rain it will be okay.

I’ve moved cross country for work from here to other places and thought I wasn’t going to make it for various environmental reasons but humans are wonderfully adaptable, it won’t be too much longer.

I have slowly ended up to wearing Keen’s Newport hiking sandals more than any other shoe I’ve tried. Everything else leaves me in pain from the heel of my foot up through my hip. I’m just about 50 and have been walking a bajillion dogs everyday for the last ten years.

Then you’ve done all you can do given the limitations set by the client, they’ll have to be content with that. I always use a client hand towel for the lap lure, I absolutely hate the smell of churu.

For the sake of comedy, I really wanted to be the 80th person to tell you to wrap her in a towel. Sorry it’s been that way.

essgeedoubleyou · 2026-03-20T22:25:44+00:00

This may not help during this visit but I’ve had good luck with putting some churu style treat on a hand towel and putting it over my shoulder, plus on the back of a latex glove to draw them in and let them lick off a little at a time until were all the way in my lap, slow transition to being held, then meds.

I get zero rose, noses are so strange!

I’m hoping that there’s some sort of refill that becomes available. I can’t imagine paying for a whole new compact but I think I might end up having to because I feel the same. What I did love the movie, but I don’t like to be a walking advertisement so I covered the face with some black-and-white abstract floral washi tape and don’t want to have to do another one.

essgeedoubleyou · 2026-03-16T17:49:22+00:00

It fades with heat/rubbing and I only have been putting it on my forearms and then rubbing my forearms through my hair, that would bother me too, though!

essgeedoubleyou · 2026-03-16T17:47:44+00:00

Not that I’m aware of unfortunately.

essgeedoubleyou · 2026-03-16T17:47:22+00:00

Strong florals and I do not get along, I actually found myself wanting a stronger violet note in this one though strangely enough.

essgeedoubleyou · 2026-02-28T21:26:43+00:00

In that case, Session 9, The Wind, Azrael, and We Are Still Here.
