👃I used to exclusively wear only one perfume at a time until the bottle ran out. This era I wore:
Misia - Chanel
Smells like a 1920s dressing room with powder and violets and roses everywhere
Red Roses - Jo Malone Just the most beautiful rose smell. I would always get asked by taxi drivers what I was wearing when I had this on.
Now I've gotten into nicher perfumes that are more unisex and a bit weirder so I rotate them depending on season/occasion/time of day.
Current Spring rotation For the office: Morning Chess - Vilhelm Parfumerie It's woody and leathery but also very fresh and green. The creator says it was inspired by mornings in a cottage on the swedish coast. Smelling this at my desk makes me remember the world is a bigger place than emails. For the evening: Mississippi Medicine - DS and Durga Smells like old churches. Based on the rituals of a death cult from the 1200s. Heavy on incense, cedar and frankincense.
For walks outside: Sakura - Lush Super clean and refreshing. Feel awake when I smell this. Smells like jasmine and orange blossom and salt. Like being near the sea but also delicate flowers.
I used to really love having one singular signature scent (whenever anybody would tell me I always smelled like roses I would reply "yes, so when I'm dead and you smell roses you'll think of me") but the older I get the more I feel like I have more facets of myself to perfume. I like that I can change my mood with fragrance or have some kind of escapism from reality with it.

⭐here is my routine whenever i haven’t interviewed in awhile. (I work in tech, so interviews are usually more technica, but the same principles are transferrable)
1. copy and paste the job description into chatgpt. ask it to act as the interviewer and provide sample questions/responses.
2. binge wat self made millennials videos on yt. only series I’ve found to be genuinely helpful.
3. study the unexpected things to impress them (dial in your knowledge on company history, mission, etc,)
best of luck!
