Favourite scent taste
i cant use neither perfumes nor deodorants. they just start itching incredibly, and with perfume, the next day, i have a cold. but id been using tiger balm for my aching body for a long time, and i really like its scent, and others seem to do it as well. so one day i tried putting it under my armpits. the effect was incredible, as it spread through my lymphic system, and my whole upper body was feeling the effect.
i also use coconut oil in my hair, especially when its cold, as it gets solid at room temperature. you could try going into a thai shop if you know of one, they have even better coconut oil. one i got was liquid at room temperature, and after a few weeks, it smelled like alcohol? can heal your lips and body from a variety of ailments. its just one scent, the thing i prefer.
CBD also got legal recently in all of europe. i cant use it anymore, i dont know if its the production method, but the first scent i always get from it is always lead? thus, it makes me desentized. but it was real cheap, half a litre for 150kr (15$) without any shipping cost! its a greenyellow thick liquid that the skin soaks up quickly. and afterwards, you smell like freshly cut grass! good for anti-pain, but also anti-anxiety.
as for my first memory, its of a neighborhood woman where i grew up. my parents always complained about her scent, but i thought she smelled wonderful? i asked what perfume she used, but it smelled nothing like hers! years later, i had the door open 24/7 to my apartment, and especially in winter, 2 different tomcats would sneak in, usually after midnight, and sleep in my bed. when they prodded me with their head (i heard thats their way of hugging!), i started smelling like the most wonderous flowery scent. and that woman did have a cat. ive felt it on others since then. and my clothes and bedsheets, even after several washings, still smell like cat!
as for the best one, it is saffron. i looked it up here, and its nothing like what people describe. i tried using it as a psychedelic (wont say how) and thats the only time ive gotten high. later, i started feeling the smell on fully loaded, stinky subway trains. in old dirty microwaves. in flowers that sit above heaters. and even in papercups (?). and the small oven i bought, when new, smelled wonderfully of saffron, and still does.
this might be off-topic, but ill get to it, and also, more saffron flavours (synthetic!). i studied gastronomy at university, only 1 term though. but i learned so much! i tried making a dish which incorporates all basic flavours, and even made 1 version which doesnt need heat! all versions work without a fridge too, and are vegan to 99%. its around 20-50 spices and various groceries (the higher number if you make the spices yourself - ive made my own garam masala and curry!).
it takes less than 3 minutes of effort, and is less than a decilitre of the sauce when done. you either mix it together with the rice (then it lasts for weeks in a fridge, or several days in room temperature if its not too hot) or just take rice and a bit of the sauce each time when eating.
anyway, i messed up in the beginning and it just tasted disgusting, but eventually, i got the hang of it. if i miss just 1 ingredient, i notice it directly. so the scent is like nothing else.
the recipe is something like this: boil white rice with bay leaf and liqourice root, cut onions and microwave them for a few mins, do other things.
when the rice is almost done, mix ground paprika, ground chili, garam masala, curry, redwine vinegar, coconut oil, coconut / hazelnut / almond flour, tomatopuré, ground a piece of garlic, chop a few fresh mint leaves, soy (theres a tiny amount of wheat flour in this), anise, fennels, cumin, and also dark (thai) tarragon.
serve on papadams (hindu bread), and for drink, mix muscovadosugar with microwaved limejuice. as for how much you should use of each ingredient, i just take a little bit o this, a little bit o that. everyone loves this, and i can eat it however much i want and never tire.
then i tried something else. i looked in the huge french cookbook that was recommended school literature, for everything that worked with shrimp. i dont know how many ingredients i bought, but it was a lot. first you boil shrimpshells in water for 15 mins, and filter away the shells. then you add the ingredients and cook it down, then red wine, cook it down, then cream, cook it down yet again, and serve with rice. youll get a strong synthesized saffron flavour! the book was anne willans the complete guide to cooking.
