The Scent of the Cyborg

Today is once again one of those gloomy and dark days.
It is cold and diffusely dark....the world no longer spins.
Today is the day for Greyland.

This scent awakens in me an icy and longing melancholy.
When I wear Greyland, I always hear and see a video clip in my mind.
Björk...All is Full of Love!!!
In the clip, you see two machines...Cyborgs!!!.., who love each other in such an
aesthetic way that it is hard not to burst into tears.
It is one of the most beautiful and saddest videos of modern times.
This scent fits perfectly.

It smells like the pheromones of a machine....
To me, it smells like liquefied electronics.
It is a cold, extremely cool, and repelling scent that it exudes.
It feels repelling-attractive to me, like electricity itself.
Greyland feels to me....melancholically beautiful.
A scent that one wears in another galaxy, something we are not yet ready to wear because it teleports a sadness too powerful for us.

Hard to describe...this scent spreads a heavy warmth to me.
One thing is still very noteworthy about Greyland, its base note...
it smells of woody-cool machine oil.

This scent is not for depressive people; it could pull them down even
more.
But for those who want to maintain a cool distance, it is the
perfect scent.

The scent isn't really for me, but I had my own struggles with the gloomy weather today. I always need bright fragrances; anything else just brings me down even more. *lol*

I don't know the scent, but now I'm really curious about this heavy warmth and the base note. Adding it to my wishlist :)

I can definitely relate to your picture. "Melancholic" fits, and the song choice is spot on. I see the distance differently though... it really does force you in a way.
