Hello darling Hivers, it鈥檚 the weekend already and the week was filled with so much give and take but we are grateful. Today am going to share my experience on how I went shopping for perfume and my taste of it and how it ended. So relax and enjoy reading.
I love perfume so much and smelling good is one of my hobbies. LOL. Have you ever felt so nervous before an interview, a meeting with someone new or even something as simple as going to the grocery shop because you realize you forgot to wear perfume? Well, I do most times and I always feel horrible and uncomfortable because I feel not completely dressed without a scent. Wearing perfume is actually important to me and is like part of my dress code, it makes me feel good. There鈥檚 one thing I believe in, and that is, the perfume you choose to wear tells people something about who you are and your kind of personality by giving them a first impression. This simply means how you smell reveals to people who you are and it shares a little bit secret of your inner self with the world. There is something quite magical about perfume and fragrance which is quite amazing.
So, today I went shopping for perfumes, when I got into the store I was amazed to see how beautiful they were all looking in fancy bottles, and packs. I paused a moment and looked around the whole store, it was as though I was in an entire different world, the whole place was full of sweet fragrance and aroma that brightens my whole mood, I could feel it in my stomach. Fragrance has the power to change your entire mood, it can revive you and lighten your mood. It was a beautiful sight to behold. I went round the shop to pick my taste and that which I can afford because they all varies from different designers with big names such as Christian Dior, Tom Ford, Channel and many others which their prices varies too. Although it was quite difficult to choose the best scent because they were all good and I love them. I also saw good essentials oils, flowers and herbs, such as Lavender, Jasmine or Sage, which are used mostly at the spa and at home for enhancement, I learnt it can work wonders If you wish to relax and meditate.

Do you know that perfume has a transformative quality that awakens something in us, from mere admiring the precious liquid inside the beautiful bottles, to an aroma that can teleport you to a time or place in an instant, bring back past memories and events of loved ones and friends. Like few days how I got a call from my former colleague at the office, it was a long one, we spoke about so many things and life in general and she said to me that she misses the aroma of my perfumes and how I smell so well. Of course, I took that as a compliment and I felt so good about it. Personally, perfume help me boost my confidence, I can walk into any place and get a full attention YES, that鈥檚 how it works. Knowing that you smell good can be incredibly reassuring. Your scent is the first impression that you give when you enter into a room and the lasting impression when you leave. Sometimes random people can meet me up just to ask what the name of the perfume am wearing was, but because I spray more than one, I just tell them anyone I could remember. Yeah...I know you get that too and I do ask people a lot most times when I get attracted to their smell. And I do wish sometimes that the sweet perfume people wear can reveal their names themselves without me asking because it could get so awkward asking.
One of the most obvious benefits of wearing perfume which we can all attest to is that it neutralizes body odors and keeps us smelling fresh all day. And the best way to tell someone that they have a bad smell without making it look offensive to them is by getting them a perfume(Jokes). Your choice of scent can definitely express your state of mind, and reveals your mood to those around you like I explained earlier. Our sense of smell is one of the five senses that we humans have been blessed with and I think it high time we appreciate perfume.
It all ended with a tour around the mall, where I got to see this beautiful art work.
Thanks for reading
See you in my next post and cheers to the weekend馃
