The Scents of my life..perfume favourites.
Scents…
There have been many for me, but only a few are special and remain lingering amongst the memories of my life…they can transport me back to a time a place or a person in an instant with just a sniff…..
They are magical…
This is a tour through my life in perfumes….
My first….it was the seventies!
I was 15….seems like last week…
Then ‘growing up’ at 16-17 years old it was this one….Rive Gauche by YSL
Then I settled on this one for a few years on and off…
Cristalle by Chanel
A beautiful fresh classic…
In the eighties…there were many….here are a few….
Poison oh gosh! however did I wear that?…
I think it was short lived…?
I simply Loved this one….
Escape by Calvin Klein
I remember the launch in Harvey Nicols
This was my Favoured Scent of the eighties….it was strong…but I loved and wore it for a few years…
Bijan….
In the nineties….there were only two main runners… and I still love them both today…..
Do you think it had anything to do with these lovely images?
and this one….and again I still love it….”l’eau d’issy by Issy miyake
although I did have a passion for Annick Goutals gorgeous scents during the 90’s
They are so expensive now….!
In the noughties….. it was these
Cristalle AGAIN
and a couple from Lancome..Tresor…for awhile…..
and Miracle (I wore that when I got married)
Today….. now I am a real grown up?
and a Mum etc etc…
I adore Miller Harris
Terre d’iris is my favourite….but I am wearing ‘feu de bois’ today
I think thats how you spell it…I cannot be bothered to run upstairs and check…
after all I am a Lazy daisy…!
and Jo malone …wild Bluebell…is in my handbag
But guess what….whilst in london recently…I fell in love with and bought this one AGAIN…
So I am thinking that this must be my ‘signature scent’ ?
What was your first?
and what are you wearing now?
…I’d love to know?
