Theme #8 will be...


Oh no. Now I have to transcribe this one.

Very clear white floral smell. Almost dusty. I
say white flower because it reminds me
specifically of a flower bush on the way to the
Jamaican restaurant near me.

There is another smell that reminds me of a
fancy hotel or ugly furniture with ornate
wooden legs.

The kind of wealth that is very outdated and
unappealing now. This smell feels very dated.
Sort of like how I imagine rich people would
smell like 70 years ago.

This smell has a very broad and cloying
element to it that makes it seem like it is
designed to cover a worse scent.

About 3 hours later this smell is almost gone.
Very mellow rose.

I'm a little late with this one in my time zone, but let's just pretend I didn't miss or almost miss a day. This obviously mirrors #3, which is another Smell Review. Honestly, I had no idea how I was going to finish, but then this new piece, Lady Vengeance, specifically the middle paragraph (or stanza?), gave me the inspiration to keep going. I was trying not to repeat poems or poem-types, but I wanted to post this so I decided to use a little repetition to do 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10. Thank you Matthew!
