You sure smell nice girlfirend!

Okay, I am a sniffer.  I admit it. Sometimes I'm subtle with my sniff sniff sniffing. And you probably won't even know I'm doing it. I love the different smells of life like fresh baked bread, cut grass, the ocean, garlic, a Starbucks (as you open the door), babies, Christmas trees, my hubby's cologne, fresh sheets, and chocolate anything.

A few days ago, I met a friend for a long overdue lunch. As we are standing in line to place our order, I caught a whiff of her perfume. Wow. It was a soft flowery fragrance that smelled great. So I ask her what it was and she said "something Chanel" but she couldn't remember the name...she got it a long time ago. Since it is close to my b-day, I am in the market for a new fragrance and ask if she will text me the name so I can try to find it (I went through a list of ones I knew including the classics but it wasn't one of them). I will post it when she sends me the name in case anyone is interested. Anyway luckily she is a good friend so I know she didn't think I was a weirdo sniffing her hair while standing in line ordering an eggplant sandwich!

I also did just get a scented mailer for a fragrance by Viktor & Rolf called Flowerbomb. Love it as well. I rubbed that sucker all over my body and tried to find reasons to stick my arms and neck under the hubby's nose so he would get the hint. I usually get a perfume as a gift from him because he can't go wrong as far as size (he says it is no-win....too small and he doesn't know me and too big and I'm insulted...go figure).  So hubby and I were out and about yesterday and he surprised me with a bottle...yippee! Soft and pretty and now sitting on the counter so my guests can enjoy same as me...any takers?  I like to leave my perfume out so my galpals can use if they want.  I used to just keep them stored away, but they sat around and got old. No fun. I thought better to share so that's what I do now.

Smells evoke memories and I love that.  Isn't funny how you can get a whiff of something and be immediately transported to a place or time? Just like that (snap).
