 I can be a first impression, a memory, a description of you

Hello! 今天介紹我很愛的物品 - 香水

Scents trigger a reaction. It creates a connection between people.  You remember the girl with a white floral skirt, the one that smelled like roses, feminine and not overpowering.  The guy that held the door for you, that strong woody scent, something familar but can't quite put your finger on.  

Perfumes are one of my favorite accessories, it completes a look, it sets the mood.

每一個女生都因該找到最適合自己的味道. '香水可以襯托女人味, 各人風格,  改變心情

我各人很愛噴香水, 看心情噴不同的味道

有幾個可以推薦 . 愛花香的妳可以試試 Miss Dior 的 Blooming Bouquet. 這款我是去年暑假在韓國買的, 最近在美國終於推出. 淡淡的玫瑰加牡丹花.很舒服也是下雨天愛噴的一款.  去年在臺灣的時候 也是生日 朋友送的 那就是Lanvin 的 Marry Me a La Folie, 是粉紅色的那一瓶. 味道比較重一點  他好像是2013 限量版的. 玫瑰和 citrus 味道比較明顯, 聞起來很活潑的感覺.

Now that spring is here, I  have been searching for a new scent.  Something fresh and playful.  The past year I have been in love with my Miss Dior Blooming Bouquet,a lighter floral scent without the powdery element, rosey and feminine, Lanvin's Marry Me a la Folie, a brighter, louder scent, very playful, consiting of rose, citrus, and musk.  I have also been using Guilty by Gucci for the winter months, its sexy and mysterious to me. It has oriental floral notes with a hint of black pepper, somthing I typically dont reach for.  

三月底 剛剛過21生日. 朋友送我 我的第一罐 Jo Malone. 是他們家果香的-杏桃花及蜂蜜 .

Recently, for my 21st birthday, I was gifted Jo Malone's Nectarine Blossom & Honey Cologne. ( My first Jo Malone)

They opened a store nearby just this past March and I was able to test out a few of the scents. To my surprise, my two favorites were on the fruity side: Nectarine Blossom & honey , and English Pear & Freesia.

"London's Covent Garden early morning market. Succulent nectarine, peach and cassis and delicate spring flowers melt into the note of acacia honey. Sweet and delightfully playful."

 

Jo Malone London

One of the best things about Jo Malone is pairing scents. You can tailor your scent.  

I like the Nectarine Blossom & Honey by itself, but a few splashes from another Jo Malone scent gives it a complete makeover.

  I went in to pair my scent and came out with a few bottles that make the perfect spring scent. The lady paired OB & H with the Early grey & Cucumber, a citrus note. That extra layer gives a fresher feeling and downplays the sweetness which may become overpowering.  I also loved the combination: Blackberry & Bay  + Orange Blossom & Honey , and the English Pear and Freesia with OB&H.  Both of these are from the fruity family, the combination just gives more depth and emphasis on the fruity and floral notes. If you are looking for somthing fruity but more earthy and woody, I would suggest the blackberry & bay combination. It has a sort of warmth to it but still a spring like scent.  There are endless possibilties, and I can't decide which one to invest in.  I am thinking of maybe mixing three colognes to give the scent more depth, and maybe, just maybe, I'll find my perfect scent.
