Searching the right scent



For years I’ve been searching for one special fragrance that would reflect who I am. I started with Cacharel Noa and loved it back then. But how could I tell it was the right one, when I hadn’t had tried the others. It’s like searching the right partner in your life – when you are in the beginning of your road you don’t stop when you get together with the first one, because you can’t tell if this is the best you can end up with. At least I thought so. So when me and Noa story was over I chose another one and so it went. I never used one perfume twice. And then one day, many years after my first real perfume, I thought that I knew what is that I want. I wanted the perfume I had had first – Noa. I was so sure that this was the best one and this should be my signature perfume, the scent that defines who I am. So while being on the trip I went to fragrance store and bought it – my “ideal” perfume Noa. And extra bonus was that since it had been on the market many years already, it was much cheaper than it used to be. And I thought that’s great, it really suits me. Well and then I got home and started to use my perfume and guess what, it didn’t work. It brought back old memories when I first used it and it almost felt like back then. But I have grown so much with those years and definitely I am not the person I used to be. I used the entire bottle but now I know that it’s not me and I won’t use it again. It’s like some old relationship that you tend to over emphasize and when you would get back together it won’t happen. There was a reason you broke up. So better use this time to new ones, who haven’t done anything wrong jet and maybe they won’t do it in the future as well. If you have found the right one then you don’t let it go. Even if it is your first one. 

And my latest love is Calvin Klein Sheer Beauty. Before I bought it I went to store at least 5 times to smell it and every time it felt more right to get together with it. And now when I have used ¼ of the bottle I am almost certain that I’m going to use it next time as well. It feels good and it feels right. It’s so pure and easy and there hasn’t been a day I didn’t want to use it. And I don’t care what else perfume world has to offer. Sounds like true love, huh? :) Well, I hope our relationship lasts!
