to me figs smell like summer. i love fig scents, especially if they smell a bit more green than fruity. my favorite perfume smells a bit like the green-ness(?) but also fresh, clean dirt after the rain.
if not fig, i am very much a sandalwood person or blackcurrant one. i like smelling nice but not necessarily floral. :)

For a rainy day: Filligree and Shadow āI made you a mixtapeā (green apple, cannabis, petrichor)
For a chill day when I want something that stays close to the skin: Eātat Libre DāOrange āJasmine and Cigaretteā (powdery examples of titular notes)
For fall and winter and/or when Iām feeling cozy: Pearfat āBread and Rosesā (toasty delectable and bright all at once, a miracle scent)
and despite loving it I donāt wear perfume in the summer instead opting for nice clean smelling moisturizer. (Iām using a Lush one rn)
From exploring a range of styles I find I like unusual gourmands or florals paired with light earthy accords. I also have come to recognize the habits I have around perfume, itās something I use to create or maintain a vibe, I donāt need an every day scent and Iām not drawn to big scents with a wide throw. I prefer a perfume thats detectable only within a foot and makes me feel a certain way. Remembering these things about myself makes trying new things more approachable.
That being said! You might find the opposite is true for all of the above and can narrow your taste from there. I also like all the brands mentioned for their range and price point. Happy hunting :)

going to see challengers on my own today! and i'm very excited. i'm someone who actually doesn't mind going to the cinema alone. i've done it so many times over the years, and totally do not get people who say it's sad. if i lived somewhere where i could go to late night screenings on my own, i would do it all the time.
sometimes i end up making a friend, sometimes i just get to sit and get sucked in and then i get to leave and choose my favorite place to eat. it's a nice way to spend a day on your own, and i think more people (especially people in their 20s) should take themselves on little dates.

if i had a comfort sitcom, this would be it :,) sadly it only has two short seasons, so i've seen every episode at least 10 times. (if you're going to watch it, make sure to look up the right episode order because it aired out of order.)
when i'm at a loss for what i want to watch, i put it on. somehow despite having seen it a bajillion times, the gags still land. there's also something so inherently 2000s about it with its slightly outdated jokes and energy that i find charming. it's the same way i feel about 2 broke girls. it's just fun hjinks with people who are kind of messed up!!!

an epistolary novel that's a time traveling love story space opera. i love epistolary novels and i remember finishing this one and needing to sit down with all my emotions for a bit. it's my favorite book. here's a quote from it that i love:
"will you go still or turn sharply when you know i'm watching you? will you see me? imagine me waving, in case you don't, i'll be too far off for you to see my mouth."
