Scintillating Scents

I never was much of a perfume girl. (Admittance: I'm pretty sure I did douse myself in various Bath & Body Works vanilla-strawberry-cotton-candy-pomegranate-caramel flavors throughout all of middle school) I didn't purchase my first true perfume until well into my college years but after that first buy, I went a little mad. My favorite ever former-boss purchased me my first bottle as a gift - Marc by Marc Jacob's. Then I went on a  binge and bought myself Dior's Miss Dior Cherie, and Gucci's Gucci II. I know. But I imagined myself spritzing on one of my three perfumes everysingleday, changing between them depending on my mood - Marc Jacobs for day-to-day, Dior for romantic, uber-feminine days, and Gucci for a night out.
HA!  I still have all three of those bottles, and am only close to finishing off one.

However, while on a pre-move trip to Manhattan, I purchased a bottle of Betsey Johnson's Betsey Johnson body lotion; and instantly fell in love. Well, I put some on this morning, and now every time I make a quick movement (it's me, I'm sort of flaily) and catch a whiff, it makes me so happy. So I really just posted all this to let you know that I'm being incredibly, positively affected by a scent I put on this morning. It really is the little things that can make all the difference in enjoying every day.

  1. I wear Marc and Miss Dior Cherie too! You clearly have great taste. And Gucci Guilty instead of Gucci II.
