A Journey of Fragrance

I love anything pretty, it's always been a weakness of mine. Ever since I was a little girl, I always pined for pretty clothing, pretty lip glosses even if it was only Chapstick and pretty scents. Perhaps this is not rare for a girl who didn't come from much. So, as an adult, I began my journey of fragrance, buying the cheapest scents I could find. They were usually very simple, one or two notes with a strong alcohol base, but damn I felt like gold!

Over the years, my friends or parents of my friends have given me many samples or old perfumes they had collected over the years. So my collection grew. I wanted to start a blog as I go through my samples to decide what perfumes I would like to buy to create a beautifully curated collection that transports me to past memories or new uncharted worlds. Scent is an amazing sense, and one I hope to celebrate in my writings.

Hey @Binky , I'm with you in enjoying "pretty" things too - and I'm glad that led you to trying out fragrance!
That's so kind of your friends and family to pass along samples and other perfumes they are no longer using.
Are you hoping to find a signature scent, or are you just enjoying trying different ones?
Thank you for sharing your thoughts, and wishing you the best in your scent journey! 💖

Thanks for replying @Binky - it seems we have some things in common, as I enjoy gourmands, ambers, and light florals too!
If you have recommendations so far in any of these 3 categories, I'd always be interested to hear! 😊

Hello @Gourmandgrl! I have quite a few perfumes, I love trying different scents, especially gourmands, ambers and light florals. I have worn a few signature scent perfumes for a few years and wanted a change and to try new notes. I love perfumes! Thank you for your kind comment.
