I'm glad I'm not the only one. I saw a great buy today on Diorissimo, and had to set on my hands ,not to get it

I admit, I am a perfume junkie, as well as a lipgloss junkie. I have to control my buying of these two things, or it gets out of hand!

Right now, I have and wear Amazing Grace and Pure Grace, in the edp, spritz, and body cremes. Working in school classrooms, I find these are the best. I also sometimes wear a lavender fragrance made locally on a local lavender farm.

I also have Cashmere Mist, Flowerbomb, and Michael Kors Sexy Amber. I wear those more in winter and when I'm going out.

So, right now, five fragrances. That's the least amount I've ever worn/used!

I love Diorissimo.

Here it almost feels like it's a sin to use perfume or cologne. My husband loves it, and so do I. I do not douse or drown myself in it. I using it sparingly and only light scents. I would never wear it in close quarters. (like an airplane)

I cannot tell you how many times I've been stopped and asked what scent was I wearing.

***This is why I really limit what I wear. If I'm going to be sitting in a theater or in close proximity in a closed space with others, I only wear a little Pure Grace, or nothing at all. I have definitely become conscious of others and don't want to cause issues for people near me.

4 bottles of EDT...and one is nearly gone. I've decided that once I use up what I have (which will take awhile since I only use 1 or 2 spritzes), I'm not going to buy anymore. I enjoy the scents, but I can't find one that lasts on me anymore. Plus so many people are sensitive to fragrances these days!

As I get older, I'm much more conscious of not using too much scent. Our sense of smell deteriorates with age (along with everything else, lol!), and sometimes we just don't realize that if we put on enough so that we can smell ourselves, it's just obnoxious to those around us.
