I usually put them in project specific directories, like so:
"$HOME/Graphics/.guix-profile"
"$HOME/Projects/Advent of Code/2022/.guix-profile"
and so on...
I find that it's much easier to use than if they were centralized under
one directory, because this way they are close to the project they
correspond to.
Also, a useful command to know:
guix package --list-profiles
