Your perfume sounds delightfully wonder...Hi Brenda! Your perfume sounds delightfully wonderful. I love light flowery perfumes too. My mother, used to tell me that a feminine woman should wear her perfume so that it can only be lightly caught upon the air as you pass by or come in close for a hug. There are few things more pleasurable. But nothing worse than when someone splashes it on and it overpowers the surroundings. <br /><br />I was told by a friend of mine who worked for years behind a perfume counter at a major department store, that the expensive natural fragrances once used in the past have sometimes been replaced by cheaper synthetic chemical formulas and that is why people seem to be so much more sensitive to allergies today.<br /><br /> She also said that most people spray way too much perfume on and that one should never spray it directly upon the skin. She suggested spraying the perfume on a cotton ball and then lightly dab behind the ears, and at the pulse points. The cotton balls can then be tossed in your linen or lingerie draw as a sachet! She went onto say that we can not trust our own noses because after a time we can become desensitized to the scent and not realize that we are wearing too much. I hope you are having a beautiful day and that a wonderful weekend awaits!

This spring in particular I have been very aware of fresh outdoor smells and whiffs of colognes and perfumes inside. Yesterday when I was doing my laundry I was enjoying the scent of the clean clothes. I too have enjoyed the use of spritz of perfume now and then. Blessings on you. RuthRuth A.M.

The gift of a beautiful scent. I hope it doesn't deplete your supply, though. I have a friend who had sinus surgery and has not been able to taste or smell for years, and she is a cook. She can't taste her own meals and we cannot ask her how she likes anything, so sad.Ginny Hartzlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09329131153403895625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6017539925620642059.post-20966666855286091682011-05-26T18:37:08.207-06:002011-05-26T18:37:08.207-06:00How sweet of you!
