My Top 5 Favorite Fragrances

5.  Coco Chanel

4.  Absolutement Absinthe Le Parfum d’Interdits

3.  Tuberose Gardenia by Estee Lauder

2.  Black Orchid by Tom Ford

1.  Eternity by Calvin Klein

So, I started to write out what I loved about each of these fragrances, but almost needless to say, the commentary was about the same.  They are floral-y, but not too floral-y (well, except Tuberose Gardenia, which, by name, is super floral-y!), but most importantly, when I wear them, people ask me what I am wearing.  Or when I walk by I hear people turn around and say “wow, I love that fragrance!”  That, to me, is a sure sign of a fragrance that smells great on me.  Even if I like it, if no one ever comments, it eventually makes its way to the back of the drawer (or the back of the shelf, in my instance). 

Eternity is, hands down, the best fragrance for me.  I dated a guy one time for a little while – he was super cute (just an aside there..lol) – and about a year after we quit seeing each other, he called me out of the blue at work one day.  He said “I was just at a restaurant and our waitress smelled like you, so I thought I would call.”  Eternity has been proudly perched at the front of my shelf for many, many years now.  I hope you have a fragrance like that in your life – I would love to hear what it is!
