My box of crazy French perfume samples came today.

.
And the company seemed pretty sure of themselves.

I’m not sure I actually need my perfume to rebel, but whatever.

The first one I tried….

Was definitely…. different. I know people who would like this scent, but it was too heavily spiced and cloying for me.

Medicinal camphor, incense and prunes. What’s not love?

River's world..... 
Wait. I thought you were supposed to smell like garbage or something…?

Ick. One of things that I’ve given up on during this pandemic is perfume. I now wear the scent of whatever soap I use that day, feeling no worse for not having my signature perfume on. Of course I have no clever blog post to write about because of my decision to be scent-free…

I only use it when I go out, which admittedly isn’t much.

We are binge watching The Beverly Hillbillies, and Granny says the best perfume you can wear to attract the opposite sex is vanilla extract. She might be right.

A heady mix of musk and aggravation, blended with a slight undertone of evil.
