Have I gone for sensory overkill?

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
I am getting ready to go to my eldest son's first live gig - he is the
drummer in the band. I will "sans doute" be the oldest rocker there
tonight, along with my husband, but I want to look and smell as young as
I can get away with without doing the "mutton" bit - bear in mind I am fifty +
I have gone for a casual jeans and peachy coloured vest combo with pointy
black boots and have decided to wear Hypnotic Poison.

Post bath I applied some HP body lotion, then a small amount of the elixir.
Maybe I should have stopped there, but I then sprayed on a tiny spritz of
Heliotrope Blanc (Piver.) I actually think it smells rather good!! I wonder what a hot, sweaty venue
will do to this combo. Will let you know.

What would you have worn in my place?

Sounds like a good choice to me, narcotic florals bloom in dense, dark and sweaty environs!

I'm tempted by ELdO Jasmine Et Cigarette, because gigs smell wierd now they are non smoking. It sounds perfect for that sort of night out.

You have fun!

Kewart, don't you worry about your fragrance. You smell just fine! The key will be to act cool and act like you belong. It's all in the attitude at our age, which we have had decades more to develop than most people there!!!!

Have a great time, it sounds very fun!!
