The Scent Is On

Last year, Jenn picked me up and we went early to the shopping center to meet her other friends for her birthday dinner.  Her friend L had gotten Jenn a gift card or… makeup session from Sephora, so that’s why we went early, for Jenn to get her makeup done for her dinner. 

After the session though, there was something strange about Jenn not having the gift card with her or something since L had paid for it or… I don’t know.  We were both confused about what the lady was saying.  So Jenn had to buy like $25 or $50 worth of merchandise? 

Well, Jenn couldn’t really think of much that she wanted.  She did get a Clinique thing, I think, that she needed a replacement of or something.  So she asked me to pick something out for myself.

At first I was like, what?  It’s YOUR birthday.  Still she kept insisting.  Something around $20 or so. 

I decided it would be good if I could have a purse-sized bottle of perfume.  I have a travel size of the Calgon Morning Glory body mist, the scent that I use almost every day, but it’s a daily scent and I might want something more sophisticated and slightly stronger for a date or night out.  I have a couple perfumes, but they’re in medium sized bottles and are not easily carried in a bag- I’m always worried that I might forget it’s in my purse and that I’ll crack the bottle.

I thought I might get a purse-size of DKNY’s Be Delicious Fresh Blossom, of which I had gotten the medium bottle a couple years ago.  I really like the scent for special occasions.  The mini comes as a rollerball duo with the regular Be Delicious.  The regular smells good too but I wasn’t sure. 

Then I thought that since I have this chance, I’ll go with something I normally wouldn’t purchase for myself.  I finally decided on Juicy Couture’s Viva La Juicy Roll-on.  Here’s the description from Sephora.com: “Juicy Couture presents Viva La Juicy, an enticing scent of wild berries and mandarins, honeysuckle, gardenia, and jasmine. To round it out, amber, caramel, vanilla, sandalwood, and praline add just the right touch of sweetness.”

With that being done, we had a great time at Jenn’s dinner.  Then she drove me home. 

And I forgot to get the perfume from her bag.  Sigh.

And then Jenn moved and lost it for a bit.

So then I finally got it this year at Jenn’s birthday dinner! 

And I still like the scent of Viva La Juicy very much.  I can’t wait to wear it!

[Oh look what I found- a scent by fresh called "Sugar Lychee." I like lychee.  I wonder if it smells good?]
