Signature Scent

Floral, citrusy

sweet, fresh, woodsy, clean, which scent

is my signature?

Testers, trial sized

scented strips from the fragrance

counter in my purse.

My most recent scent

saffron and cedar. My son

said, “It smells great, Mom,

if you want to smell

like a pencil box.” I think

about that. Found it!

    Lori,
    I think saffron and cedar sound like a lovely scent. I wore cologne/perfume for years but always had to buy a different scent w/ each purchase because my body rebelled at repeats. The lady scent I bought wax called Poetry. I bought it in the Lake District of England, but I can’t wear it. It causes my sinuses to run. Alas, my scent days have ended.

    The recent scent names are intriguing — I had to look up bergamot, tonka and aldehydic. I thought I was doing well when I knew what tea tree or eucalyptus was. Love this exploration of our myriad of scent choices. I’m intrigued by the saffron and cedar. I wish I had a sampler.

    Your son’s comment is funny, but really, who wouldn’t want to smell like a pencil box? Colorful, useful, clean. Interesting description and clever ideas!
