Artisan perfumer crossing an ocean to rip it up and start again. I make fragrances with notes of art, queerness, wit, and the occasional provocation.

👋 I made a spreadsheet of independent perfumers around the world that you should get to know.

The list is by no means exhaustive but it will introduce you to a world of scents waiting for you to smell.

We’re not in competition, we’re in community. ✌️

Bad news: I retired the Mount Rose Teen Princess® Perfume Annal™.

Good news: I converted the Google Sheet into a website. scentedatlas.com

Support independent and artisan perfumers as you smell the entire world. #perfumesky

People who love to dunk on TikTok, this is why I still use the app. It led me to this wonderful app for creating portraits of my cats. https://uchinoko-maker.jp/?lang=en-US #catsky

On Halloween I did a walk-through with my landlord. The studio is officially closed.

And now, we wait.

Sold! The whole kit and caboodle to a very lucky person.
Moving overseas means these perfume materials, sadly, can’t come with us.

If you live in the greater Seattle area and want to instantly have the best surplus of materials at your disposal for making perfume, @ me.

I have 12 bottles left that I can fill with a fragrance you love but missed when I closed my studio on September 30th.

Send me an email and we can see what I have available for your fragrance wardrobe.

This is your absolutely last chance, btw, FYI. kbai

I’m happy I was able to get one last bottle and a shirt before @filigreeandshadow.co closed up. A fond farewell and best wishes on the next chapter! I’m excited to see what the next iteration brings!

Wearing The Purest Blue by @filigreeandshadow.co to the office today.

Straight-up mysore sandalwood.

Feels like a personal bubble of calm and capable to ward off the frazz around me.

Great for those hectic days when there’s no federal government.

Last day in the West Seattle studio. 30% off select scents, no code. Ends Sept 30 at 11:59 PM PT (or when sold out). Is this clearance out of spite so Seattle won’t tax my leftover inventory? Mayhaps.

Thank you for every visit, every story, every spritz. 🖤

In honor of The Rapture, and until 11:59 PM Pacific time, enjoy 23% off your order with code THERAPTURE.

From 2021–2025, whilst(!) my studio was open, I gave $54/month to @realrentduwamish.bsky.social, totaling $2,484. 100% supports Duwamish Tribal Services and the Duwamish Longhouse. As I close this chapter, I’m grateful: small, steady contributions do add up.

At “DYSPHORIANA” by VIN + OMI for #LondonFashionWeek, you’ll find my Filigree & Shadow fragrance samples in your bag: Notget, Blume, and an exclusive, We Are the Earth Intruders, using UK invasive species.

Perfume is art—and art can change the world, if you let it.

A fun (fun? sure, let’s go with that) problem to have: bottles but no boxes. Currently waiting for my printer to ship my box reorder. 🤞

But I did finish all of my orders and am walking them to the post office, so mayhaps I will treat myself with a chai. #perfumesky

I dreamt that I couldn’t solve 9^3 and I kept trying to work it out as 9 x 9 x 3 instead of 9 x 9 x 9. When my alarm woke me up, I immediately knew the answer was 729.

I also wanted to call out sick, but I couldn’t remember the name of my employer. In reality, I’m self-employed.

Anxiety, man.

Just another day in #Seattle. Those of you familiar with local goss on TikTok will understand this text exchange with my husband.

I have 31 bottles remaining. FYI (btw).
