The New Smell On The Block: Beautiful And Terrifying
The smell I once associated with spas is not so pretty after all...
Have you ever gone to a Russian banya or spa? As a model who does a lot of promotion by being the “designated hot girl with a Loyalfans,” I kinda have to keep my body on point. One of the ways I do that is through saunas. They clear up my skin and help me lose weight.
I’ve gone to Russian and Korean bathhouses for both business meetings and personal care days. In Russian banyas and European-style saunas, there’s often a particular scent you can pick up on in the hot rooms.
That scent is hard to forget. It’s refreshing, woody, a little piney, and slightly floral. I love that smell, objectively speaking. If I could bottle it up as a perfume, I think I’d make a fortune off it.
These days, I still like that smell. However, it comes with a deeper, darker connotation, at least, most of the time when I smell it…
