Look Vera Wang 2008

Today was another sniffing appointment at the perfume dealer.

All the delightful scents of the East and West were spread out on the little tables.

After securing one of my "staples" - No. 19 - just in case it might run out, a bottle with the orange label "Look" was vying for my attention.
It was almost a command, which I obediently followed.
Ms. Wang had already seduced me with Princess - and Look is also worth a glance or a sniff.

My friend joyfully brought her nose to my wrist, nodding eagerly.
And I too let out an appreciative "Look at that!"

The lychee-mandarin opening is so beautifully sunny and bright that one might forget the gray sky.
Freesia and jasmine are as clear as a pond on which a water lily gently floats.
The patchouli adds a soft smokiness, gently warmed by the vanilla.

Autumn sun peeking through the red maple leaves.

Look brightens the mood and even the drizzly weather - and comforted us over the forgotten umbrella.
