Scent of a Woman
August 19th, 2007 @ 12:31 pm by Mrs. Pearl
Mr. Pearl and I decided we weren’t going to do wedding presents. However, he did decide to surprise me with a present the morning of. He was searching for something unique and meaningful that would last beyond our wedding day and he definitely found it!
I tend to be a one perfume kinda girl, normally sticking with Juicy perfume. However, Mr. Pearl bought me Fleurissimo. Normally a bottle of perfume might be a bit blase. This isn’t just any bottle. Fleurissimo was commissioned by Prince Rainier of Monaco as a wedding present for his wife, Grace Kelly. I love that the present he picked was inspired by one of the great love stories of this era! Wearing the perfume now brings back the memories and emotion of our wedding day.

What a wonderful present! It’s a gorgeous scent. I read on the MS blog that scents and memories are intertwined- how true. When I smell Air du Temps or Chanel No. 5 I recall memories of my beautiful mother getting ready for for an evening out with my Dad when I was young. I wear Petit Cherie daily but I think I need to branch out to something a little more sophisticated, a little less fruity but still me:) Something that I can wear that will remind me of my wedding day. Great post! Thanks
