Fit & Fume

Lil Softie by Lore. I will start by saying I really really love this fragrance, but am disappointed by the longevity. The other fragrance I have from Lore (Disfruta) lasts all day and is a summer favorite of mine.

Lil Softie opens up with a real burst of bergamot. It is fresh and a little spicy, very zesty. As that dries down, you really get a fruit cereal scent, like Froot Loops. It’s fun and sweet and, the part I like the most, very starchy. It smells like the bran of the cereal, which to me is always a warm and comforting scent, it almost reminds me of my spouse, who is a baker. The final dry down comes to a very mild lactonic scent, almost a skin scent but I can barely perceive just a little bit of sweetened condensed milk.

Paired my fragrance with this little get up for my friends birthday. I’ve got the rainbow pants on for the rainbow fruit cereal, and a soft pink Levi jacket that reminds me of the softness in the dry down. I’ve also got on a vintage leather top, which represents the punchy front end.

Overall, I’m happy to have the fragrance, but I probably won’t repurchase because of the longevity, which I do deem important for my purchases.

Silver Haze by The Alloy Studio- a queer and black owned indie perfumery.

Opens up with strawberry, raspberry and pink pepper. It’s bright and almost sweet, but is fleeting in the fruit department. It moves into a deeper chocolaty scent with a hefty cannabis note, like smoking a blunt while also having a lil dark chocolate fountain to dip the berries in. But maybe the berries are in the other room now.

The dry down is really where this fragrance starts to sing for me. It’s thick and PURPLE, probably from the orris root. It’s also a little dreamy and creamy, I find the vanilla to be barely there but an excellent addition.

This fragrance has a very complex journey that have a lot of colors represented to me, so I paired it with one of my patchwork pants, a silk shirt and a bow tie that has plaid in different shades of purple and silver, a nod to the name.

I also had a small issue with my order and the customer service they provided was top notch!

Évasion BonBon by Maison Mataha

Asked a perfume sales rep for her favorite perfume in the shop and this is what she suggested to me. I like sweet and gourmand perfumes, so I took a chance and took a sample home. It’s nice, definitely wearable, but not something I’ll probably buy.

On the open it truly offers a tart and almost artificially sweet candy scent. It gives mixed bag of jelly belly jelly beans with an almost waxy texture. This is my favorite part of the fragrance, it’s playful and punchy and feels very colorful. As it dries down, it becomes a little more soft and subtle, and it turns to a more floral sweet scent. Sadly I don’t love floral scents so this is really where it loses me. It’s not so pungent that it become a scrubber, but it definitely was giving me a more soapy vibe.

Paired with it I leaned into the jelly bean open and went with this little summer patchwork set that reminds me of the reference photo. Fun, playful, a little scandalous yet sweet.

Cloudy, Queen of the Bags

Cloudy loves bags and coffee filters, but particular bags that she chooses. When one bag gets crusty we will offer her new bags until she chooses one, which we then place for her to crush into her perfect little cave so she can become cat soup 🥹

I know I just shared one but this week was my birthday and this was a gift to myself that I felt brought really big birthday vibes

Cartoon Boyfriend by Punk and Dandy. Notes of buttered popcorn, cotton candy crystals and vanilla, milk and oud. An absolutely unhinged fragrance that is at the same time, so beautiful and complex.

I was browsing at a local perfume shop and stumbled across this fragrance. I took home a sample so I could spend more time and better explore, but when I got home and sprayed it, I was overcome with a warm feeling of deep memory and association. My spouse is a baker and one of the best cakes they make is a hot milk sponge, and this, with the butter, the milk, the vanilla, smells EXACTLY like the moment the cake batter is being poured into a prepared pan. It’s a finicky cake so the process has to move fast and that moment of scent is fleeting before it starts to bake, but this fragrance encapsulates it so beautifully, but with a little hint of sophistication and ambience of fragrance that comes through with the oud. I went back the next day and bought a bottle.

With this absolute banger of a fragrance, I’ve paired some fun, vibrant colors that make me feel like my own cartoon boyfriend. A couple pieces are vintage leather which I also feel matches the vibes.
