OK Vogue came for me in the mail today and although I never have time to read the stupid magazine I do enjoy flipping through it and coming upon fragrance ads and giving them a little sniff. the funny thing is as i carried it i smelled this very classic sort of feminine-smelling scent. I don't know if "classic" is the word but it just smelled like a very ladylike perfume and I said I have to find out which one that is so . . . this begins my journey
first there is an ad for Sean John's Unforgiveable and it has a kind of repulsive citrusy sourness but there is also something really intriguing deep down, and i just realized it sort of reminds me of Tsar. Also makes my nose tingle sort of like smelling something mentholated.
Armani Code for her --something repulsive and fluffy about this. i can't explain it. it smells fluffy. i'm really not thinking right enough to pick out individual notes and my sister is harrassing me on IM as I type this but it just smells sort of musty and sickly sweet
Valentino V and V Absolu -- YUCK. When I first smelled it I got this sensation of smelling some sort of musty old chocolate cake and I was so disgusted I looked up the notes and I find out it has a prominent fig note? I have never smelled a frag with fig in it and I always thought fig would be something I would like so I am surprised because it must be the fig that is grossing me out.
OK HEre we gome to the shocker Nautica Voyage -- very nice actually! but I think this is the mystery "lady frag" that I was smelling. pretty funny since it is marketed to men. Agghhh there is so much I want to say but my sister keeps IMING ME
so anyways. But the thing is when I got around to smelling the strip of Nautica it smelled sort of like the mystery frag but not completely, so what I'm thinking is what I was smelling was just a combination of all these fragrances smushed together, because haven't you noticed whenever you pick up a magazine with perfume samples it always has that nondescript perfume smell? Maybe this is what I was smelling but this time I swear it was more appealing or distinctive than usual. And as I smell the Nautica Voyage strip it smells more and more to me like my memory of the mysterious scent wafting from the magazine. so. funny.
sorry for the hectic nature of the post
it was written in very tiring circumstances (nonstop flashing and beeping of the IM window)
