Fragrance is an art that I almost never see mentioned among all the art forms shared here. Did you know almost half of the humans on earth wear some kind of fragrance? Do you have a single favorite? Do you have a collection?

it's not very active anymore but @aesthetica.eth was running /scent we are a very no-fragrance family now and are soooo sensitive to smells but the last one i think i bought was like a mossy rain scent and previously i really liked a tomato scent but i have worked with scent detection dogs so odor some to mind in a different context and like to think about how humans don't value the ability to scent very much while other animals use it a lot...

Thanks for the info! Not super active but I'm glad to know there is a channel and some people sharing some stuff. Oooh, mossy rain sounds delicious. I have never heard of tomato in a fragrance, but I'm intrigued. Sometimes scents that seem weird end up being really good. However, some enthusiasts and perfumers go as far as using semen. lol And that's a very interesting observation. When it comes to deliberate use of fragrance, we kind of do it at a higher level, I'd say. My wife and I are very much into choosing the right scent 'color' that adds the scent-vibe of whatever we're wearing, the weather, and where we're going. And often it's just for each other. But we are very conscious of the various intensities of them as well and make a point not to be offensive or calling too much attention to ourselves with it. It's a game of balance. Just like animals, it's communication, only we can be more nuanced.
