🫧le labo, ds & durga, and plenty of the other indie perfumers sell samples of their perfumes for like $3 a sample! luckyscent.com also has decants of like any scent you could want. buy a sample pack and try different scents out till you find one or two you really like. then think about what aspect of the scent you like, and buy other perfumes samples with similar notes. once you find one you really love, buy a bottle!
you may find that some scents work best during the night but feel overwhelming for work, or maybe they smell great in the summer but are a little too floral and fresh for winter… half the fun of perfumes :)

👃Do it! If you’re looking for a new favorite scent, just go right to the experts. Way more interesting finds than anything you’ll see at Sephora or even doing the fragrance search function on Fragrantica.

💅Scent Bar: an absolute must if you want to test out a wide range of niche brands!
Elorea: a Korean perfumery that has an in-store cafe
Naxos Apothecary: fragrances inspired by Greece
Olfactory NYC: great if you want to create your own custom fragrance
There are also a ton of flagship stores in NYC, if I had to choose I’d hit up diptyque, D.S. & Durga, and The Maker Hotel Shop

😃every day, i try to incorporate:
1) some form of exercise
2) time outside (can be combined with exercise)
3) talking to/seeing a friend (or even a stranger, the important thing is social contact)
4) an intellectually stimulating activity that gives you a feeling of accomplishment (reading, practicing a language, doing a puzzle etc)
5) self care (nails, facial masks, body oil, or hell just a shower if that’s what you need)
when I maintain this routine my mental health stays fairly manageable! you can get through it 💪

🥘my go-to quick and easy dinner! throw some sliced onions and peppers in a deep pan, get them nice and browned, add garlic, smoked paprika and cumin, plus a can of whole peeled tomatoes (crushed between your fingers). Let that simmer for while, then dig out some holes and crack eggs into them. cover until eggs are set, then top with cilantro, parsley, whatever you want. takes half an hour tops and looks impressive
