Metal Flower, by the Harmonist is the floral fragrance for me
Metal Flower by The Harmonist smells like a soft floral, at odds with the chill outside. I enjoy how bright it smells. When I first spray it, it feels rather plain, but it starts to develop more and more on me into something more delicate. There is something pretty about this fragrance, that I enjoy…

Taking on the main character mentality
I was at an event. I could have networked, but I sat idly by as my coworker worked the room. I told myself I was just an observant person. Upon reflection that was a cop out. I was just nervous about the awkwardness of trying to meet/be rejected by new people. It was a fairly…
