Perfume PSAs

1. You only have a few days left to take advantage of the 20% off for my blog readers at Twyla Perfumes - it finishes on 12 February. See here for more details - the code is PRISSYPERFUME. Or alternatively (because you can only use one coupon code in Paypal), she is also offering free worldwide shipping until Saturday using the code UPSBLOWS. See which option is cheaper for you and:

2. If you're a fan of Firebird's Almond Milk, here's a heartbreaking heads up for you - it's being discontinued. One of the components is no longer available and Brooke bought the last of it, so once she runs out of that, Almond Milk is gone. If you want to know why I made sure to snatch up an extra bottle, you can read my review here.

My Indie Perfume Collection

*Warning - this is a super long, pic heavy post. 

In the last few years I have gone a bit bonkers with indie perfumes, pretty much since I became solidly aware of their existence, really. I've always liked perfume oils, but I never realised they were available outside one's local hippie shop (which for me was Back to Basics in Geelong - their vanilla oil was responsible for a lot of my romantic action throughout a great chunk of the 1990s).

Anyway, after having acquired a ton of perfumes, and then spending a year or so destashing the majority of them, I now have a pretty manageable size collection, and with one or two exceptions, I try to only hang on to those ones I truly love, and either give away or sell whatever I'm not totally gaga over. Today I'm going to show you what I have, for no reason other than I just felt like it. If there's anything in particular you'd like a review of, let me know, though I must warn you that despite my long-standing love of fragrance, I am bloody hopeless at describing them. I'm like Melanie Griffith doing the museum tour in that Simpsons episode ("This room's nice, this room's nice too..."), or those You Tubers who sniff a bottle and say, "This smells - *sniff* - just - *sniff* - it's just amazing!"
