How Do You Feel About It?


Ok

 Good

 Sad

 Angry

 Fun



Maybe I shouldn't have watched this "weird" movie about perfume a while back (click on "link" above) because everytime I search for reviews and information on a perfume I feel like I might be a psycho murderer. I have been searching for a new perfume for a while, since I ran out of my college favorite: Tommy Girl. Yeah, it's time for an update, I mean, I will have graduated for 5 years in March *cringe (I am old!)*. I still remember being 18 and purchasing the perfume as a "getting into the university" present to myself - it even came with a canvas tote.
Whoa, so one perfume through all these years, you ask.
Actually no, I was really into Ralph two years later and bought it during my first ever trip to NYC. However, it was only my second favorite. Then I got three different ones as presents (all from guys other than Kei) and they were great too, mostly. Okay, I only liked the one from PM.
Still, I want to find a staple that I can always go back to and count on because some scents can only be worn during certain occasions. I wanted a well-rounded all-occasion all-season scent. I think I might have found it, after many spraying sessions, first on paper, then on person. It was a lot of work. This blog really helped with my search, but of course, smelling the scent yourself is the most accurate.

I didn't say which one is my new scent because I feel like I need to go buy it first before I can claim it as my new scent.
I actually bought my frist perfume in 2000. You were with me when I bought Ralph though, from those middle eastern guys near chinatown/little italy?

Yay for you, you should go check out H&M - I really like how they carry my size, unlike most stores in the U.S. I like the Stella perfume at first whiff but after that it doesn't smell that good for me. I am glad it reminds you of your Barbie perfume, hey, the bottle has a bow on it!! boom boom~

oh yiiaah, forgot to mention that I was flipping through a fashion magazine at the bookstore recently, and there were a few pages introducing the newly opened (well, back in Sept.) and spacious H&M store in Ginza. I'll be sure to swing by the next time I visit Tokyo! Hya hya!

I was so pleasantly surprised when Mollie and Danny gave me a skinny tube of Stella by Stella McCartney since before I went to Hachinohe, I'd gone to Sephora and thought it smelled so reminiscent of the Barbie perfume I had from childhood.
I also really like Lolita Lempicka...the apple-shaped bottle is just too cute! There are too many variations though...haven't gone through smelling all of them yet.
There's another line with garden and ocean themes that's by a British lady, sold at this one shop in Kobe...but I can't recall the name at the moment. All the perfumes were about 80 dollars each.
