Hot SA girl. They're fun, but no match for Adonis

- "Have you tried Le Labo fragrances?"

"Oh yeah, I wear Rose 31 all the time"

- "Wow! Have you tried the one made just for LA"

"Yup (she looks at me like I'm BSing her) the Musk one, right"

- "OMG, I feel less than useless! You're an expert! How do you know so much?"

"...For a straight guy?" note:I didn't mean that comment in a disparaging way. Much love to the gay community. I just wanted her to know so I could ask her out. As she walked over to me I saw her wedding ring

Someone was in Barneys Beverly Hills today...... perusing the new Le Labo section evidently.

Ha. I used the Basenotes "force" to get a substantial Oud 27 sample out of her.

It is fun being a Basenoter in Los Angeles for sure. I love how the SAs start talking to me like I'm a challenged 8-year-old.

Was it a taller then average female with blond hair who is usually at the cash register to the left of the Le Labo section?

one time i played dumb just for kicks and the SA ended up confused

"i dont know much about womens fragrances (this is true really) but im looking for a vanilla sort of perfume as a gift"
"okay well we have -i forgot what it was but it was something lame- you should smell it"
"how about Angel? i wear the guys version and ive heard thats really sweet...or is there anything from Versace? actually i wear Givenchy Pi, is there something like that for women? id prefer vanilla or tonka in the base too so it lasts longer"
"i thought you said you dont know alot?! you know way more than any guy whos come here"

its so weird, i really know NOTHING about fragrances in the overall picture but just from being on here for a few months i know 500x more than the average person
