The Perfume Department


I personally am not one to use perfume that often, but I do like to walk occasionally through the perfume department at the large department store down the road and just go “scent shopping”; as others go window shopping. After smelling three or four perfumes, my nose usually goes in overload, but it’s a fun thing to do.

Other times, before I go into the store, I think up a combination of three words (e.g. lemony, minty, fresh, or silky, spicy, sultry, or feminine, fickle, intelligent) and then ask one of the salespersons what perfume she thinks would fit these words. Some look very bored with the prospect of trying to find the right perfume, others have a wonderful time with the experiment.
