Theme #3 will be...

Transcribed:

Very flowery and sort of fresh linens-y. Another
sharper smell I can't really explain, almost a
sharp soap? Mild old lady vibes but not in a
bad way.

Very clean, very bright spring vibes. Reminds
me of chambray buttons ups and commuting in
the evening when daylight savings changes so
you get out of work in the daylight


I don't know if it's "me" but I find it very calm
and enjoyable

I like interpreting these smell reviews very much; I made several colour palettes inspired by other unpublished smell reviews in futile attempts to capture their full depth... it makes me think about how a smell review is itself a futile attempt to capture the full depth of a smell. It also strikes me that in describing the other smell reviews as 'unpublished' this is maybe publishing it? Am I publishing a smell review? Anyway, enjoy! It's pieces of writing like this that made me excited to do poems-as-themes in the first place.
