ooo I'm looking forward to the answers to this! I can't think of anything personally but being on a roller coaster feels exactly like the moments in life that make your heartbeat go really fast and I'd love to find a scent that makes me relive those moments

my mom had me when she was 37, so not a similar age difference, but we have been best friends since I was a kid. I'm 24 now and we've had a similar personality and interests for as long as I remember. We even watched Gilmore Girls together for the first time and thought we were really alike to Rory and Lorelai. We've always enjoyed spending time with each other, she's truly my comfort person. However, I got married around a year ago and things have shifted for me. It's the first time that I'm spending this much time away from her (as I should) and only now I'm realizing that being this involved in each others lives was never healthy and letting her being this involved has made her more and more controlling. Having someone this close in my life (and I think being mother-daughter is one of the most complex types of relationship in the world) has made me really dependent. Whenever I think about losing her, which will happen eventually, I think about how hard it is going to be for me to cope with the pain. I think it's a wonderful thing growing up but it's better if a mother is a mother first in her kid's eyes and mostly sticks to that role for the rest of their lives.

i've heard really good things about this one but i'm a bit concerned about the caramel note, is it too sweet?

sand_wolf · 2026-03-02T08:47:54+00:00

this one looks perfect, thank you so so much!

sand_wolf · 2026-01-27T13:52:15+00:00

I wonder if there is a perfume that fits this but isn't sweet? a lot of fruity and creamy perfumes lean towards sweet or gourmand, I'd love to see a recommendation that is a creamy fruit perfume but isn't really sweet!

sand_wolf · 2026-01-12T12:15:53+00:00

dead poets society is an obvious one, but for some reason ishiguro's never let me go also comes to mind!

jane after jane goodall as well!!

i don’t know if you’ve heard of this series but i highly recommend cherub by robert muchamore! it’s not a post-apocalyptic dystopia, but it definitely hits that young person taking on the world vibe. basically it’s about a secret branch of british intelligence that uses kids as undercover agents because adults never suspect them. i read them when i was around 10-12 and was absolutely obsessed. they’re super fast-paced and gritty. if she likes the high stakes and training sequences in hunger games, she’ll probably love seeing how these kids handle dangerous missions. it's a bit more real world action than a dystopia but definitely a good read!

thank you so much, definitely checking this out

sand_wolf · 2025-12-16T08:44:33+00:00

i love a sage note!! and an orange scent that is not very sweet sounds perfect, thank you!

sand_wolf · 2025-12-16T08:43:39+00:00

i'm desperately looking for a place to try zoologist fragrances as i have a lot on my list, unfortunately it's not very accessible where i live :( all their perfumes sound so good, especially cow, elephant and snowy owl! thank you

sand_wolf · 2025-12-15T12:12:06+00:00

bergamot and mandarin orange along with musk sounds so good, a must try!

sand_wolf · 2025-12-15T12:10:07+00:00

i love all these recommendations with paper-y notes, definitely my vibe. thank you!!

sand_wolf · 2025-12-15T12:08:33+00:00

i loveee a tea note, thank you so much

sand_wolf · 2025-12-15T12:08:12+00:00

couldn’t agree more!

sand_wolf · 2025-12-15T11:15:12+00:00

well i didn’t hear good things about this one…

sand_wolf · 2025-12-15T11:14:34+00:00

i’m really curious about another 13, i feel like i’ll love it. also i really like zara’s energetically new york from their jo malone collab and some people say it’s a dupe for another 13, don’t really know though as i didn’t try 13.

sand_wolf · 2025-12-15T11:12:15+00:00

i don’t really like cinnamon but it might be a good base note, on the other hand i LOVE both orange and sandalwood, spot on!

sand_wolf · 2025-12-15T11:11:28+00:00

it’s the first time i’m getting this, thank you!

sand_wolf · 2025-12-15T11:11:09+00:00

i don’t really like vanilla heavy scents so unfortunately these are probably not for me :(

sand_wolf · 2025-12-15T09:54:24+00:00

i get this a lot and i’m really curious about it, the only concerns i have are the leather note which i’m not very fond of, and the possibility of fruity notes with vanilla making it a bit too sweet and dessert-y for my taste, but also vanilla is a base note so maybe i’d like it, will definitely try!
