12 Lists // Number 1

Clear the Way and Chez Gillian have started a fun new series for the new year: 12 lists. I'm excited to jump on board with the project and add my own lists and invite you to share yours in an effort for us to all get to know each other better! There will be one list each month — and January happen to be a topic pretty close to my heart: favorite smells.

I've mentioned multiple times in the past, but I love "men's" scents — wood, tobacco, etc. I read recently in Allure Magazine that women shouldn't wear manly scents because men find it unattractive. Well, f*ck Allure Magazine, frankly.

Earth scents — tobacco, pine, sandalwood, cedar wood, mahogany
West Third Brand in Scout and Tobacco 1812
New tattoos (I know, this is weird, but I think it's the witch hazel)
Burberry London for Men
Coffee
Prospector Co Burroughs Body Cleanser
Lush Let The Good Times Roll
Campfires
Gin
Murphy's Oil Soap — reminds me of my mom cleaning the house when I was a kid!
The pages of old books
