you might be a hippie if...

I have a bath thing here in Chicago that smells like oranges.

Except! It's supposed to smell like oranges and patchouli. It probably does, but my wholesome package-less deodorant also smells of patchouli, and I believe I can no longer smell patchouli as a result.

No. Longer. Smell. PATCHOULI.

I strongly suspect that thinking patchouli is just what clean armpits smell like qualifies a person as a pretty serious hippie.

LOL!

I started using African black soap body wash and the first time I used it I got out of the shower and was trying to figure out what I smelled like. It took me about 5 minutes to realize I smelled like hippie because the body wash has sandalwood in it. Part of me wants to add some tea tree oil to it just so I stop smelling like hippie.

Yes. Because tea tree oil is the opposite of the smell of hippies.

tea tree oil isn't hippie, it's more of an herb with sort of smell. Besides, Paul Mitchell has a whole line of tea tree products so it's all mainstream now :-p

You keep on telling yourself that. But hippies use it as a skin care product and a healing balm and... yeah, pretty much everything.
