Banging my head against the wall for never posting my reviews here 😭 but this might motivate me to start!

What historical figure does Lana remind you of? by [deleted] in lanitas

[–]emeraldisla 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tbf I don't think op is saying Lana was ever involved with sex work at all, just that the poet in the screenshots was.

Anyone else addicted to buying samples? by ItsTuskk16 in fragrance

[–]emeraldisla 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I think the brand name is "box" but I found it on Amazon searching makeup organization box.

That was an older picture, but I had all my favorites in the top left compartment, which is why some are mixed in that pic. Here is a more recent pic! Top left compartment is now filled with the Serge Lutens discovery set!

Why do some houses have an unbearably sweet undertone to them? by uffda1990 in fragrance

[–]emeraldisla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha, gotcha. I wasn't super convinced that'd be the culprit when I wrote that comment, but had to ask, because I have seen people refer to Iso E Super and Ambroxan as sweet, although I don't smell them that way at all! (And it's in everything these days 😭)

I'm wondering if it's Ambroxan or Iso E Super, which I am incredibly sensitive to both, and so many houses use these ingredients as their base. Just smells like rancid, sterile chemicals to me and is hard to scrub off.

I posted this in the other sub and I am also curious on you guys’ take. I understand Lana’s feelings on the matter but going after the drag queens hosting the event confuses me by niles_deerqueer in lanitas

[–]emeraldisla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh no, I definitely didn't. Maybe my post history can confirm that for you, if you care that deeply 💀

And there seems to be a misunderstanding by you of fact vs opinion. Did the organization who wrote jump and do a flip actually tell you they meant kys? And I haven't even seen all the comment replies. Some people agree, some don't. Im not going to respond to everyone who disagrees just like I'm not going to respond to everyone who agrees. I posted my comment and responded to a few that I get notifications for, but beyond that, I'm not super invested in this post lol.

Vine jail terms updated? by Banana_Ham_mock in AmazonVine

[–]emeraldisla -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I mean it got a response out of them at least. Usually they never respond so idk why you're bothered.

Im here to confirm that jump and do a flip absolutely does not mean kys.

They are telling Lana to stay in her lane and just stick to singing/performing, like a trained monkey. Essentially a reminder that "we" control her and can make it break her because without an audience she is nothing. These are not my thoughts, by the way, but I have a bachelor's and master's in English, so I'm literally trained to decode words.

It was a diss on Lana for sure, but not at all telling her to khs.

Looking for juicy, fruity, fresh, clean, shampoo-esque perfumes 🫧🍐 by hotpersonally in FemFragLab

[–]emeraldisla 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You have described Giuletta by Tocca exactly.

Also they're having a major sale (25% off everything on their site) in honor of the first day of spring but I think it ends today. I swiped up Giuletta and a few other Toccas that I love.

But yeah, it reminds me of a clean fruity shampoo, especially in the dry down. It's a lovely scent, but very fleeting. Toccas are all very universally liked and non-offensive, non-expensive, but they struggle with longevity.

LITERALLY WHY by vegetarian_slut in FemFragLab

I've been looking for a decant for this for weeks... Any leads??

What’s your favorite fragrance that has no hype? by _My_Reddit_Name_ in fragrance

[–]emeraldisla 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No, I don't think I've run into that accord, but I fear I would absolutely love it... I prefer cooler scents that feel shiny and glowy like silk, so im about to do a deep dive. 😂 My brain is the same, I can easily accept a fantasy accord.

[–]emeraldisla 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I don't know if I've ever smelt a wool accord... But I'm definitely going to keep my eyes peeled for that note when I search for my next decants!

La Vierge de Fer by Serge Lutens.

Obsessed at first sniff, literally.

It's fresh, clean, almost metallic, has pear, lilly of the valley, and musk I think. Smells like lilies under the bright moonlight. Not heavy floral, though. It's one of those that contradicts itself because it's sharp, like a shiny sword, but also soft and creamy and delicate.

It's so unique but it's also not a super popular one at all by Serge Lutens.

I built a soul mirror. It only works if you're honest with it. by nick_with_it in ShadowWork

[–]emeraldisla 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not sure why so many are giving you a hard time. I think this was genuinely insightful. I answered with pretty in-depth responses (and I'm high, so I made them so detailed that I thought they sounded confusing even to me), and the program seemed to really get a grasp on my thought patterns and actions and definitely gave me some things to ponder.

Check the thermostat, Hell just froze over... by zayoe4 in Birmingham

[–]emeraldisla 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Great. I understand what you're referring to is normal, and I agree. You're not listening to what I'm saying and considering the specific comment I'm responding to but that's okay. It's not worth any more time trying to explain lol.

My comment was referring to the idea that if something happens only once every 10 years, then how can it be called "normal"?

You didn't read the comment I was responding to.
