If you like something heavily woody, hinoki by CDG is beautiful and is very much just a solid wood scent. Floriental is a sweeter woody scent if you’re open to sweet. Dior poisonous is warm and sweet sort of in a rootbeer gourmand way, but has rosewood, musk, and sandalwood. Smell that one first if you can just in case. Fleur De Peau and La Papier by Diptyque as well as Studied by Liis are all very similar to Glossier You if you like those paper-y skin like scents. I’d say Liis is a more intense twin of You but they’re all similar. I haven’t smelled Piano Santal by L’Orchestre Parfum but I’d look into the notes. They may intrigue you. I plan on sampling soon. If you ever want a beautifully warm and cozy gourmand, check out Winter of 99 by Kerosene. Smells like nutmeg and has a bit of wood and vanilla. Cozy and warm but imo, not nauseatingly sweet like many gourmands.

Great movie to kick off the new year, on at 9 PM on the 31st at the Studio Galande cinema in the 5th arrondissement, lots of fun and probably very nice people to meet. Come dressed up for extra fun.
As a bonus, I believe it's the only theatre in the world that's been showing the movie weekly with actors since it first came out in 1975, so that's pretty cool !

If you’re from brooklyn or new york city or just moved here, i know, this is cliche. But i! Don’t! Care! The truffle popcorn is addicting, even if I'm farting for the rest of the movie, it’s worth it. Plus they have cute little trailers to gab about with your date or friend, but i also go alone because nobody tried to have small talk with you at the movies and you can just disassociate peacefully in blissful high-power air conditioning on a hot nyc summer day. They have guest curators on a monthly basis and do fun screenings of old flicks. Highly recommend it. Nitehawk > Alamo.

I have another indie theater that I prefer because it’s cozier, has better vibes, is much closer to me, and everybody who works there is genuinely passionate about film. It’s not really anything special visually but it’s a beautiful institution and it’s so fun to be there ❤️
But this one is an old art deco theatre designed by architect John Eberson (he designed Loew’s Paradise in the Bronx and the Paradise Theatre in Chicago)! It’s pretty run down/poorly managed and staffed but it’s a gorgeous building and definitely worth visiting. Not my photos but included for illustrative purposes!!

Using your lungs for good and bad. Cancelling out the smoke with cardio. The bliss of a cigarette while walking through a big city in the fairly cold weather is an experience I can only describe as joyous and freeing.
