Like shaving soap. This one:

https://houseofmammoth.com/collections/alive/products/alive-shaving-soap

quote:

Alive opens with top notes of bergamot, green apple, and basil before transitioning into soapy white floral with powdery labdanum and fresh plant stem, then finishes in oakmoss, wood, and laundry musk.

In the words of one user, “If the bright, fresh opening is the inhale, the warm, woody, creamy, musky base is the exhale of a deeply satisfied breath."

I made Alive as a way to work through my own process of emerging from the lockdown and pandemic disruptions, to find ways to be reborn, to reemerge celebrating the growth that often happens through death and dormancy.



Notes: bergamot, green apple, basil, plant stem, white florals, labdanum, oakmoss, wood, laundry musk

Smells nice. Things should smell nice. What things do you like the smell of?

Almond. Not like a bag of almonds but more like marzipan. So I guess cyanide smells nice? I'll assume so. Marzipan is tasty.

I have a few shower bombs (much like bath bombs except hockey puck shaped) and initially you think what a silly idea, but they actually work and are good. Mine have all been minty-based so far, all the steam becomes fresh and minty and it smells great. Really wakes you up in the morning, like huffing a container of Vicks Vaporub.

Strong stroll for a mangy stray
at one time in my life about 9 years ago I briefly had a sort of medical condition that somehow increased my sense of smell to a ridiculous degree. in a crowded room the scent of human bodies and sweat and shampoo and deodorant was repulsive. I almost couldn't stand to be around people

But most of all I could literally smell the gasoline and oil fumes in the air every time I went outside or opened a window, so strong it made me want to vomit. the idea that it still smells like that, I just can't smell it anymore is more than a little disturbing. Makes me wonder if animals smell that poo poo all the time.

Anyways OP's question is nonsensical because everyone knows you can't properly smell yourself, it's an educated guess at best

In high school I had a buddy who had a legit medical condition that made his breath smell like he'd been eating poo poo. It was very hard to talk to him at times.

Sometime near the end of high school he dealt with it with medication or something. That's my smelly story.

You can buy cans of it in Torvehallerne here in CPH but gently caress no. I had a bit of it in the "Disgusting Food Museum" in Malmø. Got rid of the taste with sauerkraut juice.

I made soap for the first time the other day it was fun. Clean up was not as easy as I was expecting.

I was at the grocery store and there was suet for sale and so I got some lye and rendered the suet into tallow and mixed up some lye water and combined it all in a disposable bread tin I found and it feels soapy, maybe too soapy but it was fun and im intetested making more soaps with different oils.

The description reminded me of a neat website that has user ratings and descriptions of a bunch of perfumes. It's called fragrantica.
I can never pick up the scents they say you're supposed to smell but I also don't think I know what half of them smell like. Like wtf is musk anyways?

Smell of rain is the chemical geosmin. Order a big bottle of geosmin and make your whole house smell like sunshine after rain.

Warning don’t actually do this geosmin can be detected at 1 ppb

*shrugs* fragrances are marketed that way. Here's another

quote:

We started with the idea of french markets lined with stalls of flowers, coffee, fruits and other products. Fields of lavender in bloom outside of the town and a powdery faced noble watching over. Monarch is a powdery lavender with top notes of cognac, face powder and coffee. Heart notes provide the bouquet of lavender, neroli, hyacinth and supporting base notes of sandalwood and vanilla. Feel like the royalty you are, powdery face and all with Monarch.

Notes:
Lavender, Face Powder, Cognac, Coffee, Orange, Neroli, Hyacinth, Sandalwood, Vanilla

Although actually reading it all I noticed this line

quote:

I made Alive as a way to work through my own process of emerging from the lockdown and pandemic disruptions, to find ways to be reborn, to reemerge celebrating the growth that often happens through death and dormancy.
which totally makes Alive worse.

Here's another. What weirdo reads the copy and doesn't just look for the fragrance list.

quote:

Imagine yourself in a hole-in-the-wall barbershop. It's clear from the masonry that the building has been standing since long before you were born, and it seems from the wear in the barbershop's floor that the single old man who runs the shop has stood with it since it was built. He still uses the same tools he did decades ago, but now with a lifetime of practice. He offers no gimmicks. He has no need of them. His work is not novel. His work is excellent. And so you rise from the barber's chair without the need for superficial frills—clean, clear, classic—with the air of a man whose refinement and experience have kept the old way among the modern day's best of the best: The Master

The Master is a dark and spicy take on a Barbershop style scent.

This fragrance was brought to life by perfumer, Shawn Maher of Maher olfactive. For more of Shawn's work check out https://www.maherolfactive.com

Top: Citrus, vanilla, tarragon

Mid: Woods, amber, jasmine, coriander, holy basil, geranium, sweet bay

Base: vanilla, musk, ambrette, sandalwood, patchouli
