Have you ever had someone ask what scent you are wearing?  In my opinion, if people are noticing your scent, you're wearing too much. There's a reason they're asking.

I get asked a lot about my bag - a Dooney crossbody.  It's about 15 years old.  It has bees on it.  I thought it was darling when I got it and I still do.

Not so. For the first time I bought philosophy lotion in amazing grace, and I could hardly smell the fragrance. I went out to lunch last Friday and my friend sitting next to me asked what perfume I was wearing. I was wearing none, so apparently the Amazing Grace does linger longer than I think it does. 

 

I've also been stopped mostly for the Lularoe leggings I wear, everywhere I get stopped for them.

Only when I carry my Brahmin Copa Cabana in copper, with the vintage/classic cars on it.

 

Women ask because they want one and men ask because they want to buy their wives one to carry at car shows.

I remember when QVC sold B. Makowsky bags and the hype was you'll always get complimented on your bag.  Like others, nobody ever commented or complimented me on a B. Mak bag.

 I think it is evenly split here ladies.

 

Yes, I DO get asked...and often....where I have gotten things.

 

Church, grocery stores, mall, work....

 

Of course it is a sales pitch.  Who cares what spiel they are using ???  No big thing...and DEF no lawsuit!

 

I'm usually QVC head to toe.

I don't know.......maybe some of us just don't seem approachable. Just thinking out of the "box".

Back in the 80s I had long hair almost to my rear end and I would get the spiral perms.  I cannot begin to tell you how much business I sent my hairstylist. I couldn’t go anywhere without getting stopped at least two or three times. the best part is that I found my stylist because I stopped a woman in Macy's and asked where she had her hair done lol.

No one stops me.  Stupid sales pitch.;;;Years ago when Philosopy fragrance lasted past the dry down time I would get compliments on how I smelled from strangers.  I always wored the Pure Grace. Such a shame when something you love changes.

 


I often get compliments on how good I smell. I wear Amazing Grace. I feel like when a company sells out to a larger corporation, a lot of customers automatically assume there will be a change for the worse. That has not been my experience with Philosophy fragrance.

I had one of his TSV bags and received many compliments on it.  I carried that bag for years.
