Heads turn, people stop me on the street to inquirewhatexactly it is that Im wearing.
A great scent has an undeniable star power thats energizing, confidence boosting, and self-assuring.
Narcissistic or not, I know I smell good.

I started toying with the idea of writing about my most complimented perfumes over a year ago.
To be fair, Ive never been one for a signature scent.
My go-to scent changed with each purchaseand often mirrored what my friends were buying.

A decade later, with a beauty-writing gig atVogue, I was inspired to reimagine my relationship with scent.
When you apply this methodological approach to scent, you learn quickly which kinds of perfumes you gravitate toward.
