I just realized...

I'm rolling with the assumption that a couple different kinds of appointments are in my future. The clinic is an allegedly scent-free zone (I suspect that if I go in there having used a scented shampoo or something I won't get kicked out, but I'm not about to test this bc that seems extremely rude to everyone) so I will be limited in my opportunities. But!

My skin eats certain kind of scents. Complex layered fragrance with exotic smells? Put it on my tits and it turns into something vanilla musk adjacent. Though it doesn't seem to do quite that with at least certain florals. It's not exactly a curse, because I do like that vanilla musk scent, but it's ... well, I really should start using the scent locket gear that I got.

ursulav is also part of the Class of '23 (a bit ahead of me, and it's the worst class to be in) mentioned her new superpower: mosquitoes no longer like her. One tasted her and flew off in disgust.

Then I saw a review roundup of some BPAL scents. And contemplated my (current) skin chemistry. And thought about it a little more.

OMG, what is this going to do to my skin chemistry. This is going to be fascinating, if I can stand any of the scents I have...

I'm wondering if this will change that Cinnamon Death Note in particular. There's this cinnamon note that when it hits me, it changes from mmmm beautiful spicy exotic/gourmand to HI RASPY ANGRY TREE BARK

and yet my skin takes the set of Death By Aggressive Sugar Syrup Pummeling To The Face White Flowers and transforms it to a lovely garden evening.

BPAL's 'Cathode' on my skin turned into a weirdly exact replica of the exact plastic they used to make My Little Ponies in the 80s. Which is a happy nostalgic smell for me, but not at all what was advertised.

And she hasn't even been bitten by a radioactive anything yet!

I hope your gonzo chemistry yields interesting-good results.

So do I.
