PERFUMISTA PET PEEVES!
Since I have been madly trying every scent I can get my hands on this year, I have come to have some "Perfumista Pet Peeves"!
Don't 'cha just hate it when . . .(some of my all time frustrating scenerios!)
. . . I smelled a fragrance on a friend and it was awesome. I put it on and it smells like cat pee on me (won't work with my body chemistry)
. . . it takes so long for the sample I ordered to come I can't remember why I wanted to smell this specific perfume
. . . I run to the store wearing a spectacular fragrance, but looking like leftovers - and this is the time people come over to ask about my perfume because they like it
. . . I am so thrilled when I finally get a special bottle that I have been looking for, and then my mother comes over and wheedles me out of it (I buy her tons of perfume, but it never fails that she wants the one I want to keep!)
. . . when a sample smells great, then the bottle smells totally different. I realize that I sampled a different formulation/batch
. . . I am outbid at the very last couple of seconds on ebay by a sniper for a bottle of something I was so excited about
. . . I was buying that vintage bottle that I HAD TO HAVE and the price keeps creeping up . . . and when I checked the bids it was always only me and this ONE other person driving up the price
. . . when one of my best friends loves my signature, asks what it is and then buys a "fake" one and uses it brutally
. . . I am head over heels for a very expensive scent I just sprayed. It smells glorious on me and I am thrilled -- for about 30 minutes, then POOF, it's gone
. . . someone gifts me a sample of a perfume that I love only to find that it is: 1. So EXPENSIVE I have to sell a kidney to buy it or 2. DISCONTINUED!!!
. . . I "oversample" at the store, come home and later discover one spot on my arm that smells divine, but which one was it . . ?
. . . when I finally receive a free sample of a very expensive niche fragrance I'm madly in love with but after 3 days, the vaporizer is broken due to some random accident and you're left with half the juice
. . . the "scrubber" I just stupidly sprayed on won't go away! It seems to have penetrated my skin, my hair, my clothes, my food, my bedroom, my car, my dog . . .
Happy Smelling!
