Hihi Perfume lovers! We're setting up a fundraiser raffle to support street vendors being targeted by ICE here in LA! All we need are your unused/gently used perfumes to create prize bundles for raffle winners! DM if youd like to contribute 🫶 #perfumesky #perfume #sotd

BREAKING: A few minutes ago, a vehicle of three people was rammed by a truck belonging to federal immigration authorities in Boyle Heights, CA. According to security footage shown to me, they deployed chemical munitions & detained the driver at gunpoint. All are US citizens according to the wife.

Using freshly acquired photoshop skills to put our friends baby in outlandish settings 👶🏽

Is it just my algorithm or is 2000s-esque emo pop punk making a comeback??

Chasing dopamine by learning heritage crafts! Made a pillow case yesterday 🥳

Big news everyone! My perfume The Space Between has been nominated for an Art & Olfaction Award! I'm so pumped right now. Being nominated feels like a win already! Bottles sold out immediately last night after the press release and I am batching again to restock ASAP. Get samples while you can!

Last night @fumfragrances.bsky.social was announced as a finalist for the Art and Olfaction awards for her perfume, The Space Between!!!CONGRATULATIONS, MISS LAYLA 🎊🙌🤌 #perfumesky #fragrancesky

I am truly terrified for Hamdan. If you don’t know who Hamdan Ballal is, he is the director of No Other Land and he and Yuval both won the Oscar for Best Documentary this year

Unhoused folks have peak humor 😭 During our supply drop today, one of our skidrow neighbors was feeling particularly chatty & his friend turned & told us "now you know why he's homeless. He can't shut tf up" Like damn, the man just wanted to tell us a story 😂

Hello friends, make sure you're getting enough iodine in your nutrition! If you eat a lot of cruciferous veggies (kale, broccoli, cabbage...), beans, soy, they actually inhibit your body processing iodine. Low iodine can lead to goiters & thyroid issues which are on the rise due to wellness trends 😅

being an indie bookseller in the helltimes has felt both very stable and very stabilizing, and part of me wishes everyone could be on my side of the counter for a little while, because I think it would help some of you be a little less cynical and doomy right now. so here is my VERY anecdotal data:

This material would be great for recreating a full guava scent experience - tree, skin, and pulp. #perfumery #perfumesky #fragrance #materialoftheday

Reminder to friends returning to the U.S. from abroad: delete your social media apps prior to catching your flight. You can always re-download them. But they don't need to be on your phone going through customs.

Does censorship or graphic imagery desensitize pple more/differently? Especially after witnessing a genocide for 500 days, it's unclear to me what the answer is. Saw a critique of a TV show that has an assault scene that called it edgy & unnecessary

I guess I'm wearing different pants today 🥹

I love this sport! Sometimes it involves running and obsessing over hands

Your future self smells intriguing 🍅 #perfumesky #sotd #fragrance samarpitcrew.com

In addition to libraries, community colleges can have some great lower cost resources! The one near us offers a month of sewing classes ($119, all supplies included), Muay Thai ($69), Photoshop ($99), Spanish ($95)!

We're perfumers btw! Curious noses come to us when they want to smell like tomato leaves, dirt, tea, (un)hallowed grounds, a speakeasy or a freshly split open mandarin orange #perfumesky #fragrancesky #sotd

Rewatching Handmaid's Tale (bc why not 🫠) and this time around I can't stop thinking about Janine. She's dismissed as crazy but consistently sees the potential for goodness. For her, a flower laden wedding ceremony for a woman on her deathbed in a labor colony is not only worthwhile, it's necessary

Recommendations, please: Working on organizing our perfume studio & we're finally ready for some wall shelves! Since we're now in LA, we need them to be earthquake resistant so our materials wont fall off. We work out of our apartment so we'd prefer theyre slender/ aesthetically subtle! Ty 🫶

The staff at Perfumer's World were kind enough to give us uninterrupted time to smell at least 100 materials in their collection! The environment they've built for employees & students is such a cute, whimsical village! Have you smelled any of these? Curious? #perfumery #perfumesky #indieperfume

Osmanthus Dragon's Beard Candy! The most recent treat to delight us! A fluffy, incomparable texture (not even cotton candy) that melts in our mouth. A slighty crispy peanut sugar center and bitter little osmanthus buds on top. Smells floral, nutty, and similar to shortbread cookies! #perfumesky
