I live in Australia, have been a little obsessed with all things olafactory since an early age (my fascination with shoes manifested a little later…).
I have a day job, plus a few others (because who wants to do just one thing?). They are demanding but also fun and challenging.
My best friend is furry and wet-nosed and you can generally find her lying on my feet under my desk.
My other best friend (and partner in life) lacks the wet-nose but is accompanied by several guitars that occupy many corners of our home. I love that he encourages me to find balance – to work a little less and create more.
I wish I had more time to find ALL of the perfumeries and immerse myself in them for days.
If I could rotate through several perfumes per day, I would. My daily struggle is not with my clothing wardrobe but my perfume wardrobe…it’s not that I feel I don’t have anything to wear, I just don’t want to limit myself to only one for the following 8 hours!
Tuberose, Vetiver, Amber and Sandalwood are notes that I resonate with very strongly (not necessarily all at the same time) and if I cannot decide what mood I am in, I will gravitate to those.
I am a chronic oversprayer…but I am conscious of it and try to keep it under control, for the comfort of others.
