I know I’ve been more loud about @squire.guide lately, but I haven’t forgotten my #Scentsky people with @drydown.social. Just fyi

Earnestine Gay 
“Do you want to go to Italy? Do you want to go to Capri? Do you want your job to be protected?”Earnestine Gay will not give a compliment if she doesn't mean it. But she will prescribe a fragrance to make your dreams come true. "Want to go to Italy? Want to go to Capri?" Fragrance, she'll tell you, is one of the most accessible ways to experience luxury. If you can’t dress head to toe in Dolce, you can smell like it.

Growing up in Bed-Stuy, she always loved fashion: when her siblings asked for storybooks, Earnestine wanted new outfits sewn by her grandma. She started modeling at fourteen, joined Macy's for the flexible schedule, and thirty-seven years later still does both — representing Dolce and Gabbana at Herald Square.
As an RWDSU shop steward, she has protected workers and served on the union's executive board for nearly twenty years. Her message to the next generation: join a union.

Seeing the new branding for Drydown for the first time and I'm just here to remind you all… I am here to beat Fragrantica's ass.

Creed sells these really pretty 5ml travel atomizers. They say the refill method is proprietary but it matched up with the 5ml decants from scentsplit.com.
a teal and gold travel atomizer with the creed logo and horse emblem. the green is a dyed leather.

At some point in the medium to long term future, I'd love to run contests where I send out unlabeled decants and whoever logs the scent notes accurately first (or something) wins a retail bottle. Feels like that would be fun.

behind the scenes I've been writing some internal docs and plans for @drydown.social which is why publicly less has been done*. More is coming for the alpha as the beta is a long ways out, but things are happening. * and it has nothing to do with buying Pokopia. Nope. Not at all related.

Added support for @drydown.social profiles, @aetheros.computer IDs & @atvouch.dev data via Philpax's graph viewer (link shown if you have made 1+ vouch). Going to be looking into supporting standard site publications better in the near future.

If you want to be on social media free from “AI”, try @drydown.social. AI can’t join due to being nostrily-challenged.

Jake’s House by Henry Rose on @drydown.social ★★★★☆ Clean skin scent, slightly sweet but not overpowering. Drydown is musky but still light and wearable in a warm day. #scentsky #fragrancesky #perfumesky alpha.drydown.social/profile/did:...

small update: all drydown dot social links will now redirect to alpha.drydown.social. this is the initial very messy version of drydown and soon (as in a couple weeks) I'll *start* working on a version that is: faster, more stable, more accessible, better designed.

decants for Gris Charnel, and then three from Tauer just arrived 👀 (Rose De Kandahar, Desert Marocain, and Maghreb)

if/when Drydown supports recording scent notes would it be better for you to add *any* scent notes to your review or would it be better to confirm/deny smelling the notes the producer claimed was apparent?

you *may* need to sign out and in again, but you can now update your preferences in @drydown.social. This lets you impact the final score in your reviews based on what you value and what you don't. You can even use that to change how *other* reviews display just for you. drydown.social/preferences

You can now migrate your fragrance records to a different house. Think of it as: “this account is a better steward for this brand’s data, let me connect my stuff there instead.” Migrating reviews to a new fragrance will come later as well. drydown.social #fragrancesky #perfumesky​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
Screenshot of the Drydown app’s “Edit House” page on mobile. The page shows a text field with the house name “Creed” and two buttons: “Save Changes” (blue) and “Cancel.” Below is a “Danger Zone” section outlined in red, warning that 2 fragrances are connected to this house and must be migrated before deletion. It includes a “Search houses…” input field and an orange “Migrate 2 Fragrances” button. The footer notes that Drydown is an early experiment with accessibility improvements in progress.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

One of the things I am *most* excited for with @drydown.social is that: 1. the list of houses and fragrances in the autocomplete is populated by my bluesky social graph 2. I can attach my review of a fragrance to someone else's data. 3. it impacts their data here: drydown.social/profile/did:...

hell yeah, @drydown.social now uses a more strict scope to read and write your data. I probably should have did this sooner 😅.
a screenshot of the oauth permission screen when signing in. This shows that drydown can only read some bluesky data like your profile photo and username and stuff. It can also read/write records for fragrances, houses, and reviews.
