Vintage Hyacinth by @darrenalanperfumes.bsky.social highlights the green, unctuous, and slightly terpenic aroma of the spring flowers in a breezy and realistic way. The hyacinth note is carried from start to finish. 🪻🪻🪻 #perfumesky #fragrancesky #artisanperfume

AOC dropped a great live on IG about what is really happening behind the scenes in Washington & what we can do to resist. This is long but full of great info & worth watching. For those that can't/won't watch on IG, here is the YouTube link for you to view.
