so, my first "official" perfume was purchased for me by my best friend, Adrianne. When we were in college she told me one year (was it Christmas? My birthday?) that it was high time that I had a scent that was ME. I definitely needed those feminine "throw me in headfirst" type of pushes sometimes..... I actually think I might be overdue for another one.... we'll see if it happens after this baby.... ANYWAY, we went and smelled scents, actually TALKED to the people at the fragrance counters in Nordstroms (or Macy's?) and I came away with this. Elizabeth Arden. For the longest time I wouldn't tell anyone what it was because I thought the name was kinda embarassing. I mean, C'mon. Provocative. Woman. It sounds kinda funny, but also kinda exactly describing me, and I felt strange saying it. So I never would. But, now I just don't care anymore. I love how it smells. I love the shape of the bottle. Its perfect.... probably always will be.

Wow...that was a long time ago! I still have 1/2 inch of perfume left in a bottle of the scent of perfume I LOVED in high school (PEACE by Bath and Body Works, long since discontinued) and I relish the remnants and save them for special occasions only (i.e. anniversary and birthday).
I actually enjoy Elizabeth Arden. You are so creative!

i am on the hunt for my new scent.
wish me luck. ;)
