Great read Suzy! The 80’s were even seedier & clubs truly stank! Stank wonderfully!
The perfume that evokes my time clubbing is 4160T’s Take Me to the River. It smells of men in make up, with stand up Mohawks, smoking a fag, wearing second hand biker jackets that has the patch oil of its previous owners embedded in it.
Every single one of these perfumes (and candle and ciggie-butt vase) = a bit of me. I'm wearing a tinsel dress and slippers (and Eris Perfumes MXXX) and going absolutely nowhere this evening, so we're also very much aligned on the NYE celebrations front. Wishing you all the best for 2025!

Happy 2025 Suzy!
Ooh I must smell that one! Haha this was the early 90s, and I think a lot of the clubs I went to probably hadn’t been cleaned since the early 70s 😂 X
You have to try it! I completely agree with Alison Jenkins. Take Me To The River is *filthy*.
MARVELLOUS 😏
When underground club really were underground!
Loved this so much!
Thank you, Cat! ☺️
