Made me blush
My first trip to the West. Like real West. It happened to be Vienna, February. Little cafes, croissants, Esterhazy Torte, opera, palaces.. my God, I was overwhelmed, astonished, in love with the city, in love with the experience of being there.. Fairy tale.. winter wonderland... city of miracles..
The guy who invited me there gave me a bottle of perfume, Black Cashmere DKNY, saying that it was the newest and the most popular at that time.
Me, being used to brighter coloured packagings, was not impressed with the plain black box with modest golden letters. Nothing fancy, too simple, doesn't give you a clue what to expect.
Surprise was inside. First, the bottle itself: smooth, heavy, shiny, made of black glass, computer mouth shaped with some dent looked like a toy basin for keeping a couple of rings, or a lipstick, or a tiny piece of chocolate.. or.. I am not going to tell you what else it reminded me of ;) It did look promising and weird, shocking and inviting..
And then, if you dare to go deeper, to the very core.. if you trust yourself to unveil the bottle and take off the cap, you will discover the smell... Smell of hot bodies rubbing against each other, smell of physical passion, mind-blowing fantasies and dirty discoveries. It made me blush. I was used to old-fashioned chypres and aldehydes and this spicy-oriental direction was completely Terra Incognita for me.
I was too shy to wear it, it was clearly "after love" smell made me feeling like wearing transparent sexy dress in public or like everyone staring at you knowing what you have been doing just several minutes ago.
Brought it home. My daughter sniffs the bottle and said: Ohh, smells like you! Made me blush again.
