Happy Giving Tuesday! What fragrance are you wearing?
I’m in the very comforting Comme des Garcons series 3, Incense: Ouarzazate by Mark Buxton. Tea at the moment is a Ceylon from Upton.
Reminder: 11/30 will be Renegades Friday…
A one-of-a-kind fragrance
In updating the historical story, this six-part season also gets a detective show twist, with a group of investigators looking into the death of a singer. What they find is a group of one-time school friends, at least one of whom stumbled into the practice of using human scents as the basis for making a one-of-a-kind fragrance. An unexplained death quickly turns into a psychological dive down the rabbit hole of an obsessive killer.
