I have an intense love affair with indie #perfume, and normally I go for florals and green scents, with occasional forays into herbal. I'm currently trying out Villa Diodati from Poesie (pungent wild rosemary and fresh balsam pine, crystal clear lakewater, dry, dark vanilla), and it's not at all my usual thing, but I'm starting to warm to it. I avoid vanilla as a rule, and I was nervous about it in this, but it's not the primary note that I smell.
My holy grail scent is still one that will allow me to smell like an apothecary in the middle of a flower garden just after a rainstorm, which is a lot and I'm still searching for it. I want to try Garden Hideaway from Stereoplasm and The Philosopher's Garden from Osmofolia when money allows. Indie fragrance is an expensive hobby.
