PLUS: Asteroids and rats
| BY KIRK MILLER I’ve received flowers once in my life. It was more than 20 years ago, and it happened after a weird fight with my then-girlfriend (alcohol was involved). The flowers themselves were unmemorable outside of two facts — they were from the same florist, and it was the exact type of bouquet I’d sent to my partner two weeks earlier in a more romantic gesture. But the lack of originality didn’t bother me. Just getting roses was such a shock that it took me a few minutes to realize, hey, I like getting flowers. | |

| Winter, dear readers, is a time for heavier, more complex colognes, scents that might be overwhelming in summer’s stifling humidity but fit right in in the crisp, cool air. Lower temperatures allow top notes to dissipate slowly, unveiling intricate heart and base notes that unfold into layered compositions. Amber, incense or sandalwood are aromas that smell richer, more intriguing and undeniably comforting. As we bundle up, the season calls for scents that linger a bit longer and are anything but basic. | |
