 =====Smells=====
+I've been learning lots about perfumes, trying a new sample every day, really enjoying it.
+I'm documenting things on a blog: [[https://plog.ryliejamesthomas.net/|Perfume Log]].
+My favourite is still //[[https://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/Frederic-Malle/Monsieur-32590.html|Monsieur]]//, which I got for a birthday present a few years ago. As a more casual alternative I like //[[https://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/Goldfield-Banks-Australia/Wood-Infusion-47953.html|Wood Infusion]]//.
+I'm trying to find a fresh Summer smell, trying lots of things with citruses and fig leaves.
+Would also like to find a favourite musky smell, as I generally like those.
+I also like wearing sweet, pink, powdery smells at home at night. I like //[[https://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/Miller-Harris/Powdered-Veil-51605.html|Powdered Veil]]// and //[[https://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/Etat-Libre-d-Orange/Divin-Enfant-4514.html|Divin'Enfant]]//, but am still looking for others
