i think the best long term takeaway i had from konmari is “discernment”

i used to keep everything i liked bc i liked it so why not

but now, for ex. with perfumes, if i find a nice rain scent, it’s compared to the best rain scent i have, and if it’s not better than that why would i spend $$$ on a bottle? i have enough nice rose smells, i’m not really looking for more. the best plumeria scent i’ve ever smelled outside of a fresh blossom exists, why do i need more tiare or frangipani in my collection? sometimes similar scents fulfill different purposes or needs but i must say that i’ve kept my wishlist insanely pared down compared to what it would’ve been 5 or especially 10 years ago.

feels nice (*´꒳`*)

#i saw someone w hundreds of bottles on their wishlist #someone else has such granular categories such as ‘fall without pumpkin’#i just don’t want that to be me!!!!#once i find smth i like i just stop looking for more #and it keeps me satisfied w what i got in the first place #i will say i am now addicted to finding more rain scents but death + floral so far has two of the best so it’s mostly a pointless exercise #god i just *clenches fist* love smelling things #i wonder why i ignored it for like 10 years …. 🌚#hard to be a collector and not have Too Much but so far i’m threading the needle……#peach posts #i also think i (maybe others?) try to find reasons to like or to buy something #i’m now approaching it more like prove to me ur worth space in my home #how effortlessly do i love this #how much would i feel it’s absence if i set it down and left it behind #it’s helped a lot!!!#still an impulse shopper tho especially w the indie brands …..
