There's something I need to share with you all, a secret that I have tried so desperately to hide but am finally ready to admit to both myself, and the world.

I am a basic bitch.

I love doing #autumnal things, I have a glittery pumpkin phone case, I can't wait to get my Uggs out again this winter, I love Ryan Gosling and regularly watch The Notebook when I need a little cry, I have bought a Kylie Jenner Lip Kit (and a KKW Contour Stick) and wow, this is harder to say out loud then I thought, but I've used the phrase "I can't even" more than once.

But one person who is encouraging us to embrace our inner Basic Bitch is perfumer, Killian Wells.

Described as the Damien Hirst of the perfume world, you won't find Killian creating your run of the mill sweet/floral scents. Instead his perfume brand Xyrena is designed to bring back certain memories and transport you to a different time and place altogether.

Killian is known for his unique scent inspirations, which include the Pirates of the Caribbean ride at Disney World. A scent he wanted to replicate in order to combine his love of water rides and the smell of chlorine. Or that fresh out the box trainer smell, which he managed to recreate for his Sneakerhead fragrance.

"A realistic interpretation of water ride staples like Pirates of the Caribbean, Jurassic Park and Splash Mountain. Xyrena’s Dark Ride features the familiar note of chlorinated water, a thrilling accord of theatrical fog and pyrotechnics and a hint of atmospheric mildew and damp ozone to create ‘the first thrill ride in a bottle.’"

"Xyrena created the first and only true new shoe fragrance. Serving double duty, Sneakerhead™ can be used as a traditional parfum or a renewal spray to make a favourite pair of kicks smell factory fresh. With notes of rubber sole, industrial glue, leather, and textile."

But our favourite out of all of Killian's scents has to be 'Basic Bitch', which Killian told us was inspired by "Instagram models" and "the majority of the Los Angeles population (both guys and girls)."

With notes of pumpkin spice latte, your favourite Nicholas Sparks novel and of course suede Ugg boots, we think we've finally found our signature scent.

Xyrena

"Xyrena set out to create the definitive celebratory fragrance for basic bitches everywhere (both guys and girls alike) but in an ironic twist of fate our olfactory “basic starter-kit” mashup is anything but #basic. Notes include pumpkin spice latte, pages from a worn out Nicholas Sparks paperback, boxed merlot, suede Ugg®’s, fresh artisan bagel (obvi gluten-free), cold-pressed kale juice, vanilla froyo, velour tracksuit fabric, Sunday Funday mimosa, nail art lacquer, and fresh cut grass from Coachella that’ll have every Basic Bitch hashtagging #TakeMeBack!"

And to top it all off, every perfume comes in it's own VHS box (that's a video tape box for all you young'uns).

Now if only Killian could replicate the smell of a man bun, for the classic hipster scent.
