When I was in the 3rd grade, a boy in my class professed his love for me by giving me a bottle of Charlie perfume. Sadly, I wasn’t interested in him, but it did spark a life-long affair with perfume.

At some point in my early 20’s I discovered Versace Crystal Noir. Perhaps it was the convincing performance the saleswoman gave about how great it smelled on me… I’ve been loyal ever since.

I also like that it’s not a particularly trendy perfume so it feels distinctly mine (despite the fact that clearly enough people are buying it for it to stay in production!)

Do you have a signature perfume? If so, do tell – what is it?

Oh, and also, Happy Valentine’s Day!
