Editing Hell, part 7bajillion

This time it's not the editor's fault. Or mine

I HATE .rtf with the burning passion of a thousand fiery suns.  I spent 4 hours redoing most of what i did yesterday, plus jerry-rigging a solution to get my hidden edits out of the document. (this meant using Bun's computer, making changes on my laptop, and e-mailing the changes to my desktop. In .doc format!)

I know, bitch bitch bitch, at least I'm getting published.
I just hate doing the same work more than once.

BPAL: Black Forest, Phoenix Steamworks

Phoenix Steamworks: Burnished gold and oiled bronze notes with Abramelin incense and sage.

Vial: Sage, spice and sharpness, like an aftershave

Wet: Warm and yellow smelling with a hint of sage

Drydown: Incense and sage coming through and the yellow better get out of their way

Dry: A more metallic smell comes out under the incense. A very masculine, aftershave quality, mellow.

2 hours: Mellow and golden, the incense is the primary smell. I like it. Definitely a speciality scent, but it would wear nicely with a leather jacket

 

Black Forest: This is the captured scent of a cold, moonless night, lost deep within the darkest wood. Haunting and desolate, this scent evokes images of fairy tale tragedy and half-remembered nightmares. Thick, viscous pine with ambergris, black musk, juniper and cypress.

Vial: Pine and more pine, not Pine-sol, but a pine air freshener.

Wet: The sharp little juniper comes through, with its berries

Drydown: Pine and juniper. Almost overwhelming

Dry: Pine and juniper still, but some musk coming in, moderating the scent

2 hours: This smells just like a wax pine tree I had and used as a Barbie Christmas tree for years. Bleh. It was a wild-card so I will probably swap it.
