Spritzed this on late one night; it felt cozy, and perfect for a sleepy time frag. There were a couple perplexing bits, but the comforting components shushed them. It calmly lingers, floating ever so slightly above and around you. It doesn't stick or cling to you; it hovers just so slightly. The edges are photoshop-blurred, soft and fuzzy. I hit play on a sleep story, and drifted off quickly, leaving the perplexing bits behind.

While settling down a few nights later, I grabbed that same sample, looking forward to another fuzzy cozy blurry moment. It was not. The perplexing bits were stronger; I confusedly huffed my wrists. My dog was concerned.

Then I figured it out. I identified the familiar, comforting, yet acrid and perplexing note evaporating from its core: a baby spit up towel. It smells like a baby's spit up towel. The soft, folded up piece of fabric just thick enough to protect your shirt from baby burp residue.

The Ghost In The Shell is a baby spit up towel.

      Oooh why do you like this one? I love banana/ vanilla/ tea scents too! You might reinfluence me! (I haven't sampled this house yet and this WAS going to be my first sample, but now I need to hear more opinions haha)

      Replying to @aikojewel

      It definitely doesn’t fall into my usual scent profile so I really have no clue what drew me into it, i remember being surprised I liked it as much as I did! To me it’s just so clean and citrusy but creamy enough to cut through the sharpness of the citrus, it’s so versatile and fresh I dunno I just love it!

    My favorite part is the "previously owned" tag on the review; you said "Out! Away with you, glorified baby vomit towel in a bottle!!"😭 I haven't tried this one but you may have singlehandedly deinfluenced me! Thank you😂
