Product Review: Narciso Rodriguez - for her

I always loved perfumes, but mostly I always loved buying lots of perfumes .. The first perfume I can recall owning was a Beverly Hills one (I know before that my parents always got me some sort of kids perfumes, whatever they were called .. No clue), I used to use only a drop each time, I was really scared to finish it and never get a new one! 

Well, I don't want to exaggerate but throughout the years I had at least 150 perfume bottles (I think I have 10 at the moment lying around in my clutches) .. Now I came to the conclusion this is completely useless. 

Yes, I mean for work I always use the same one, and for the evening I have those two or three bottles I buy over and over again. And I realized whenever I have something different on, people don't "recognize me". I believe each one of us has that one scent which sticks to the skin, which shapes the ego, and which makes out walk through a statement. 

One of my all time favorites is Coco Mademoiselle by Chanel, I think it's simply timeless. My only problem is that every other person I know has it on, it has become very impersonal in my friends' circle that I kind of felt the need to differentiate myself from the "crowd". 

About a year ago, as I was walking around in a big perfume and cosmetics store in downtown Frankfurt, a sales person approached me and said "I know which perfume you are wearing, but I can assure you I can show you something which would fit you even more. Try it on and just think about it". I thought "yeah whatever .. The usual blabla and small talk they do in stores to get that extra commission..". I have to say he was not persuasive at all, but I had time, and I thought, why not. 

Let me tell you, I bought the perfume - Narciso Rodriguez for her - the next day and have been using it ever since for work every single day. It is like a permanent stamp on my passport, like an invisible ID.. My colleagues smell it and know it's me. It's a proof of strong personality, a way of showing you know what you want (ok maybe I am exaggerating here, but I think smelling different every day can have a negative impact at your workplace-call me stupid, but that's my opinion). 

Narciso Rodriguez has that extra feminine touch, that extra sexy but not too strong scent, that something which makes you want more.

I always get asked about which perfume I have on, it is very delicate to the nose, and it is not too strong, which is very important as some colleagues could get irritated if you have a strong scent on, and some might get a headache. 

Try it, it might fit you too - it might not be a signature scent such as Diptyque (which is a perfume I love as well!) but it sure has something unique to it! 

I <3 Narciso Rodriguez!
