That was a great match. It was close and tense, and Chris won! It is nice that Chris had Connor, Pete, Chiaki, Nick, and of course Sharla there to cheer him on.

[@ChaosCause3000]

To sharla and everyone who hates most perfumes: I’ve always hated 99% of perfumes but like 8 years ago I went to the perfumery Molinard in Grasse and their perfumes blew my mind, they’re so good (you can also make your own there). I hope it’s still as good, if anyone knows let me know! Also Grasse is one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever seen, highly recommend:)

[@mollytovxx4181]

I'm going to add to your recommendation with one of my own: Urban Rituelle. I hate most perfumes (don't like anything too florally or alchoholy), but this brand has a lot of really nice scents (and is vegan friendly and cruelty free). My favourite is Ginger Apple but it must have been a limited run because it's getting harder to find :(
