Of perfumes & scents . . .


I absolutely adore perfumes, but do not use them regularly.



I've been lusting after Calvin Klein's Eternity Moment since last year, and still, have yet to get it.




Recently I saw it in a gift pack, together with the CK's body bath and body lotion, at a really good price, but I didn't get it in the end.

It's still on my mind though. It has always been!



I have only 4 brands of perfumes right now, and I rarely us
e them. And so I reckon, adding Eternity Moment to my collection, would be equivalent to placing it on the shelf, collecting dust. Which also means I have one more item to clean. Haha.

But I seriously love the scent!

Dilemma, dilemma.




~ Isabella Rossellini's Manifesto ~



My first ever perfume, given by Aunt Joyce on my birthday.

It smells really elegant, and so I only use it for special occasion like classy dates, events, interviews or project presentations.

It's almost used up and I've been searching high and low for it.

My bestie Kerlyn, told me that she saw it at Isetan, but I never found it. Frustrated!

And not to mention, the packaging is pure love! It's white, with a green stripe down the middle.
Simplicity!




~ Burberry Brit ~



I lusted for this perfume for quite some time, and mentioned it to my bestie CS, that I was gonna get it soon.

Being the sweetie he is, he surprised me by sending it to my house as a Christmas present!

I could never forget the shock I got when I opened up the wrapping. I was choked with emotion!

It's really sweet smelling, and so I use it when I'm feeling all girly girly, or on great nights out with my girlfriends.

Sometimes I use it on dates too. To give the impression that I'm really sweet. Wahaha!




~ Inis Arose ~



This is given by Aunt Elaine, when she got back from France with her hubby.

It has a really special scent, so I use it on days when I wanna feel different from the crowd, or simply when I feel tropical.

I absolutely adore the bottle. So chic!




~ Body Shop Perfume ~



A gift from my lovely Cheryl.

I love it cos I can mix and match them, to create different scents. And not to mention, I can bring it out with me even when I'm using a really small bag!

It's mostly half used, and my favourite among them is Chymara. It has a musky scent which makes me feel empowered.



So yeah, I'm seriously considering if I should get Eternity Moment. The scent is really light and feminine, so most likely I'll use it for school.



And since we're on perfumes, I just wanna say that I don't believe in having my own signature scent.

Though it is good, as people will always be reminded of you when they smell that scent, but I'm too temperamental to stick to only one scent!

Haha.



This is what happens when we're bombarded with too many choices!





All about
: elise :

Jack (or is it Jane?) of all trades,
(almost!)

but Master of none.
(trying to!)

This is my paradise, where I indulge my senses grandiloquently.

A collective effort to keep family & friends updated, and for random strangers to pop by.

I wanted to put a HUGE picture of myself in this space, but being the technologically challenged person that I am, I can't figure out the mojo of it.

So I guess I'll just have to make do with scattering loads of random self-shots all over the blog!
