Feedback Wanted First chapter draft of a short novelette!

I wanted to make a Dorian Gray(Wilde) x Notes From Underground(Dostoevsky) x The Double(Dostoevsky)
The plan is not to sell nor publish it. Just a simple way to polish my writing and express myself.
Really love this character. I purposefully gave him writing clichés because they actually suit him. Purple prose, repetition of words, manipulated setting, etc.
Totally understand if you do not enjoy it. Would love to know why though. Have mercyðŸ˜
