Was only one obvious choice today.
I know u/mammothben didn’t intend to create an Easter scent here but I suppose it was inevitable. Thought about this last night at the Easter Vigil.* Ben’s stated inspiration was coming out of the covid lock downs. Many thematic parallels here to the start of the Vigil taking place in the dark for the first ~1/3, emerging into the light after the Gloria.
Add in the spring and rebirth elements in Alive and you get the idea. A wonderful scent and perfect for the day.
Letting u/j33pguy13’s brush dry out so I can send it to the next person. The wonderful thing about these pass around is I can learn what I like. I’m not sure I could have articulated what gel is prior to this, but now I know it’s more like what my v18 is and why I prefer the v20 (but only by a bit).
#MMarch24 comes to a close. I’ll run numbers and get final information out next week. Thanks all for participating!
*Amazingly both kids did fine. Youngest fell asleep towards the end. And there was an incident outside where I tried to get him off my shoulders and he knocked someone in the face.
