What I Read in September 2025

This was a great month of reading. I read nine books in total, and it was a nice little mix of different genres: a romance, some contemporary fiction, two non-fiction listens, and of course, a few thrillers.

Of Note

DS & Durga I Don’t Know What

This is a) one of the most subtle perfumes I have and also b) my most complimented! If you love Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue, or other lighter “you but better” fragrances like Missing Person, I think you’ll love this, it’s one of my absolute favorites! I Don’t Know What is a unisex scent. It technically has no notes, but when I smell it, I get the fresh citrusy-ness that comes from bergamot, lemon, vetiver, and sandalwood. It’s cool, dry, bright, and clean. It smells so good — whether you wear it alone or opt to layer it!
