I dated someone that gave me a bottle of L'air du temps and I couldn't stand it. lol I think I might have worn it once.amotheradaughterandlifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12111277135123420943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-119733539095505639.post-42201873927306076742019-05-01T10:21:40.527-07:002019-05-01T10:21:40.527-07:00Hmm...an interesting concept.

I personally don't wear perfume, not because I don't like it, but because my husband has allergies and fragrances often give him a headache. #MLSTLChristie Hawkeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14897036282962474586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-119733539095505639.post-22795497445758918382019-05-01T00:41:10.607-07:002019-05-01T00:41:10.607-07:00This was very interesting to stop and actually thi...This was very interesting to stop and actually think about scents and different perfumes. I've never been a big perfume wearer and I think it started when I was working in the gaol with male inmates, we were told not to wear perfume at all due. There's something a bit off-putting when an inmate tells you that you smell nice!!! #mlstlDeb's Worldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12706654888846671781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-119733539095505639.post-78598444260575117732019-04-30T19:17:09.130-07:002019-04-30T19:17:09.130-07:00I've worn the same two perfumes for years (lig...I've worn the same two perfumes for years (lighter one for Summer and deeper one for Winter) My daughter took some clothes of mine and said she recognized my scent on them (even after washing). <br />There are definitely perfumes that belong to my teenage years - 4711 Eau de Cologne and Gingham were the two I particularly remember.<br />Thanks for linking up to #MLSTL and I've shared this on my SM :)Leannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05623420015695351280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-119733539095505639.post-4136775930742023302019-04-30T18:15:53.264-07:002019-04-30T18:15:53.264-07:00No you never get too old for perfume.

I'm not sure she has a favorite but I think it is lovely that she has this beauty routine. Thanks for sharing at #MLSTL and have a great week.

I like the smell of vanilla too, although I do tend to stay away from sweet smells and more floral which I guess is considered old lol Thanks for sharing with #StayClassyMama!The Mum Projecthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06524948555613433853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-119733539095505639.post-18150742020610008282017-06-28T07:11:53.160-07:002017-06-28T07:11:53.160-07:00I love perfume and think it is a very personal aff...I love perfume and think it is a very personal affair.

Not that I've thought about age differences on perfume but you can definitely smell different ages on men's cologne. Cool water vs old spice - I know what I'd prefer lol!!

Smells are amazing for recall. As for perfume, I'm sensitive but for years I wore 5th Avenue. I feel I have moved on from that now. Not because I'm too old, but because I'm just ready for a change. Right now it is Clinique's HAPPY (purely for the name). xo Leanne @ Deep Fried Fruithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00886017636780724635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-119733539095505639.post-67525094146543178572017-06-19T17:45:51.483-07:002017-06-19T17:45:51.483-07:00I'm a bit of a perfume whore and have quite a ...I'm a bit of a perfume whore and have quite a few different fragrances. Some I use often, some I don't. I do find some are not good for day time as I feel they are too heavy and so tend to only use them in the evening. I've never felt that a perfume is too young for me but I do think so are too old for me (not sure what that says about me - LOL).<br />I do have my favourites. I used to keep some perfumes 'for good' but a few years ago when I stopped having 'good clothes' and 'good crockery' and 'good linen', I stopped keeping some perfumes 'for good' and I will just as easily use them to go to Coles as I will to go out to a show or a special dinner. <br />I love perfume - I am not very good at remembering names - but I know the shape of the bottle and when I pick it out the cupboard, it makes me smile when I spray it on. I get very sad when I can no longer buy it.Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14520543769631877571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-119733539095505639.post-6532059037814439102017-06-19T14:42:15.505-07:002017-06-19T14:42:15.505-07:00I did an aromatherapy course years ago and learned...I did an aromatherapy course years ago and learned that scent has a strong connection to memory and can evoke strong emotion. Interesting. So we used it in an aged care setting and the residents really liked it. I don't agree that some perfumes are for young people. People should wear what they like.

My current favourite is Marc Jacobs Daisy. My mum on the other hand wears Estee Lauder's Youth Dew and has done for years. It is quite old lady and very strong so maybe she has aged gracefully into her scent! You can totally sniff her out when she goes into a room and my dear old auntie always used to have to waft herself after she'd greeted my mum, and say "urgh, that smell!"
