I have a Japanese copy of Dogra Magra, I've been waiting to try to read it until I've gotten better at kanji... hope an English translation is released someday!

@mar that's soooo cool!! i'm terrible with kanji too T_T i want to try to download some JPN VNs to try and speedrun learning it (something like clannad or air, maybe, with an easily toggleable english translation?) but havent yet. you should totally watch the movie, im gonna wait to see it in the theater, but id be curious to hear your thoughts!

I hope this translation gets finished--the other two I've read were so awful that I had to stop midway despite how enthralled I was by the plot *sweat*

@mousecky i hope so too! it would be a delight to see dogra magra get its flowers it so clearly deserves. are the two you are speaking of the jpn->french->eng translation and the in-progress reddit translation? you should also watch the movie and totally write your thoughts about it

The JP->FR->EN translation is just a mess (footnotes left in where there's no explanations, French quotation marks without their pairs, passages that might repeat in the original but I can't be sure with this goddamn editing, typoes...) and the other one is this one on the Amazon marketplace which I illegally downloaded for my Kindle which is very obviously done with AI. Both were just far too frustrating for me!

omg thank you!! i am so behind on updating it if you can believe it but at least most of them are samples. namba is wonderful, my fave aquatic in my collection easily. the motor oil is pretty prominent but the waffle cone note from the ice cream plays enough off of it to still make it kind of sweet. just one of a kind!

BPAL had a collection for the last full moon called idle moon and i just picked up their duet "jasmine rice and white musk" and i am OBSESSED...haven't added it to the page yet but i highly recommend snagging a bottle before it leaves their site if those scents are your vibe because it just might be my favorite. poesie's soft is great but it doesn't last very long on my skin and i like how the musk warms this one.

i'm so intrigued by the motor oil note, i love like, the smell of gasoline in basement parking HAHAHAHHA also all of the fragrances by fyrinnae you listed down are super cool (skiing on europa... the desc reminds me of zoologists penguin except less green, more void)
