My all-time favorite perfumes

I love perfumes. I use them every single day. Growing up, I've changed lots of fragrances, but there are 3 of them that I still love so much. So I thought to share with you the stories behind each of them. 

Petits et mamans by Bulgari

The first perfume I remember when I was a baby girl is Petits et mamans by Bulgari. When I was little, my mom always bought me this, and I loved its packaging because it was funny and joyful. But what I loved the most was that its fragrance was perfect to use as a mom-daughter perfume. This scent built a special connection between my mom and me; it has such a special place in my heart.  

Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue

I've lost count of how many Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue bottles I used in school. Its fresh and light scent made me feel good, made me happy. But mostly, it was like I was living a never-ending summer. It was like a beautiful sunny day with the wind through my hair.

Admittedly, this is the perfume that came with me during my teenage and all the blues of love. 

Poison Girl by Dior

My new obsession is this, Poison Girl by Dior. For writing this article, I went on the Dior website to read the description of the perfume, and it says: 

It all began on a cold winter day in Milan. I went to Rinascente, and its scent cursed me. I immediately felt that this was the fragrance I was looking for, which made me confident. I feel grown-up, beautiful, and brave with it. It really is the fragrance I need in this phase of my life.

It's incredible how a simple gesture like spay the perfume can set free so many feelings. 

My summer 2021 scent

From Pinterest

For this summer, I decided to add a little bit of spice to my perfume game. I went out of my comfort zone because I'm using Aqua Allegoria by Guerlain in the scent of Orange Soleia. It's a super sophisticated eau de toilette: it's fresh and energizing and elegant and not so common. I'm enjoying it a lot! You can wear it as it is or mix it with the other Aqua Allegoria scents to make your signature one. It's so cool!

Do you love to switch your perfumes, or do you prefer to stick to one in particular?
