Scent of a memory

Yesterday I was reading something about perfumes, how it works, it's chemistry and ......
I use perfumes for a different reason all together besides the obvious, I use perfumes to capture memories


Whenever I go on a vacation or start a new job or am about to do something other than the usual I wear a new perfume and when I want to revive the memories I wear that perfume 
I have the perfume I wore on my honeymoon and wear that whenever I want to think about those days 
the whiff of that fragrance is a whiff of the days gone by and I swear I get transported back to those moments in my life....... bliss
Do you use your perfumes in this manner???
On a totally unrelated topic there are no good movies releasing aaah!!!!!! what's up with that production houses???
So, I was not at all expecting to like Band Baaja Baarat but it was surprisingly good :) and I totally loved 
maybe the fact that it is shot in Delhi and depicts the culture there has something to do with it but whatever I recommend watching it
it's loud, funny, romantic and has some awesome acting by the lead pair 
This is a three day weekend  and I am so happy to have three uninterrupted days with husband :) ear to ear grin
have a good weekend
see you soon

  3. I am always disappointed with perfumes for they don't smell as good on me as it does on others. I often wonder why?
    I am happy you don't have that problem.

  9. Well, I'm a 'perfume person', I hunt down scents, I get them from France occasionally, I read up and research them and learn about the industry. So, yes I do use them in that manner...different scents for different moods, weather, types of clothing...

  10. The way I wear my perfumes are a bit different and a bit similar. My day to day would be some vanilla. M party wear would be opium or Lola (Marc Jacobs). To uplift my mood would be Happy by Clinique. This is how my things work.

    Have to watch the movie yet.
