CINDY

  2. The ‘old book’ smell Phoebe writes about in their piece, as well as a certain mustiness that I can only describe as years of living contained in one smell.

  3. Oohhh I love this. The first thought that comes to mind is how the amortentia potion works in the HP universe, smelling different to each person based on what reminds them of their beloved. For me, that would be McDonald’s, dim sum, and Old Spice Fiji 😅

  4. Funyuns, Zendaya-fied ;-)
