  1. This past February, Lilith competed in her first debate tournament. She was asked to come in “business casual”, and this is the best we could do.

    A scent for child orators: pleather and chalk dust with a handful of chewy fruit candies.

    (We can’t say “Skittles”, even though that’s all she ate throughout the entire tournament! Don’t sue us, Skittles! Lilith just loves Skittles!)


    Skittles. This smells like sugary fruit candy, and then on the drydown you get a whiff of the chalk dust.

    But hey, you want Skittles, here's a non-branded Skittles perfume. Medium throw and wear length.

  2. Coconut, lavender, and a whiff of citrus. The coconut comes on strongly on wet, and then recedes and I get more of a citrusy lavender. Very comfy. It's like lavender went to the beach and slathered on some suntan lotion. Medium throw and wear length.


  3. I regard the theatre as the greatest of all art forms, the most immediate way in which a human being can share with another the sense of what it is to be a human being.

    Lilith has loved the theater since we first took her to see Matilda when she was five. She loves musicals, she loves plays, she loves Shakespeare and Sondheim. She loves huge productions and local improv, she loves Hamlet and drag revues. She loves the pageantry and the intimacy, and loves performing in shows and attending shows equally.

    This is the scent of the pile of junk food that accompanies us to almost every performance: chocolate chip cookies, pretzels, caramel corn, and a little slurp of soda.

    Chocolate chip cookies, sugar and a whiff of pretzels. Pretty much this smells like chocolate chip cookies. Medium throw and wear length.

  4. Ever since Lilith was five or so, she and I have meditated together. We do Headspace, we do breathing exercises, we just sit and share space together in silence. Sometimes we do it in the morning to start our day, sometimes we meditate at night to unwind.

    Our meditation space smells like vanilla-laced frankincense, Florida Water, sandalwood incense, salt crystals, candle wax, and white rose petals.

    Meditation Buddy to me smells like Florida water, vanilla, incense, and a whiff of white roses. It's complex, mellow, and very calming. I am actually digging this alot. Medium throw and wear length.
