1. patchouli isn't awful, and I smell of it right now. it is in my nightly bath oil.

I dont know if that is the scent you are after though. Generally a mix of tobacco, cloves, and herby booze is acceptable goth stench. I suppose patchouli could be part of the mix.

You could try carrying off a whiff of roses and moss though..

NO. it is not. has not. how ridiculous. emo evolved from one kind of music and an image reliant on retro sweaters and nerdsville tight dark blue denims to a look involving some mish mash of glam punk goth. Probably an image created by some guy in a fancy chair, somewhere.. who decided it would sell.

no, not really. Maybe just less conspicuous since it isn't such a popular media image right now. There are still hardcore old school goths, at least where I live.. all 'subclasses' and whatnot. There are those that don't dress to that 'scene' anymore, but are still a part of it. There are young ones that are just as involved in the same classic goth night/clubs as the oldschoolers... In all honesty it's probably better this way. I'm no hardcore goth, but I much prefer hearing 'nice boots!' to 'what the fuck are they?' The only time in public I wouldn't get the latter, is if I was in a group. I only dress up when in the company of similar minded dressers now. Maybe I'm boring. My weird magnet never really eased off and it's tiresome to explain and glare after years of raised eyebrow looks.

hold up there. I did not say that emo evolved from goth. I said that goths adapted and evolved into emo. there is a world of difference.

perhaps, but also completely untrue. 'scene' and 'emo' in the pop culture sense is 98 % under 18 yr olds. There is definately a real emo music culture, but it has nothing to do with the kind of kids that hang out at the starbucks I used to work at. They are also not evolved goths.

wiki is fairly concise and similar to what I'd write;

emo (pronounced /ˈiːmoʊ/) is a style of rock music typically characterized by melodic musicianship and expressive, often confessional lyrics. It originated in the mid-1980s hardcore punk movement of Washington, D.C., where it was known as "emotional hardcore" or "emocore" and pioneered by bands such as Rites of Spring and Embrace. As the style was echoed by contemporary American punk bands, its sound and meaning shifted and changed, blending with pop punk and indie rock and encapsulated in the early 1990s by groups such as Jawbreaker and Sunny Day Real Estate. By the mid 1990s numerous emo acts emerged from the Midwestern and Central United States, and several independent record labels began to specialize in the style.

Emo broke into mainstream culture in the early 2000s with the platinum-selling success of Jimmy Eat World and Dashboard Confessional and the emergence of the more aggressive subgenre "screamo". In recent years the term "emo" has been applied by critics and journalists to a variety of artists, including multiplatinum acts such as Fall Out Boy and My Chemical Romance and disparate groups such as Coheed and Cambria and Panic at the Disco.

the fact that the word emo is in the thread is irritating.

So many people are so miss guided.

I don't wear my goth attire much in 'regular' haunts, because I do get the 'hey emo kid' jeers. no. just no.

it is a very 'sticky' scent. my boyfriend complains sometimes if I come to bed smelling too strongly. It's like glitter, it just gets everywehre.

While goth fashion, like punk before it, has always been intentionally conspicuous, I feel like the increasing obsoletion that has since come to a head and has now passed has lead to a new conspicuousness but in this obsolescence. In other words, the beginning and middle of this decade was a kind of climax of a kind of reflection upon the then-state of subcultural ideology and aesthetics that now, at the end of the decade, has reached a dénouement. At least, for me. Perhaps its old age but I can't say I've grown out of it as I was never really in it.
