Hello everyone! Welcome to this wonderful fragrance platform, and thank you for clicking through to my scent diary. I'm Lisa, a 23-year-old fragrance enthusiast with a passion for the art of perfumery.
The concept of Memories & Scents is all about the incredible power of scents to create and evoke memories. This connection between fragrances and recollections is what primarily drew me into the world of perfumes. I find it fascinating how a single whiff can transport you back to a different time and place. It’s a true art!
Thinking back, there's one memory that stands out for me, vividly capturing this concept. Let me share with you my very first "scent memory” from when I was around 10 years old. It was a special day, my mom and I went on a fun city outing, and she suggested we choose a perfume together. We visited Douglas, where a delightful lady guided us in search of the perfect fragrance. Amidst a variety of scents, the moment I caught a whiff of Chance Eau Fraîche by Chanel, I was captivated. My mom shared my enthusiasm, and she decided to gift it to me. I remember the sheer joy I felt as we left the store together afterwards.
Now, whenever I smell this fragrance, it instantly takes me back to that day. I can vividly see my 10-year-old self in Douglas with my mother. The scent not only brings back the memory but makes it come alive. This is the magical power of perfumes, which is the inspiration behind this beautiful platform.
My fascination with perfumes deepened thanks to my uncle, who has an amazing collection of fragrances together with his family. It was through him that I discovered the world of niche perfumes, a realm that was completely new to me. The unique and extraordinary scents I encountered sparked my curiosity and desire to explore more. Today, I'm on an endless quest to find the most unique and special fragrances, a journey that I find endlessly exciting!
Finally, I'd love to share my current top 10 fragrances with you. I particularly enjoy warm and spicy or gourmand fragrances, as well as fresh and floral scents featuring citrus or rose notes.
Consider this list as the starting point of our fragrance journey. As we explore new scents and experiences, I'll keep you updated on whether any of these fragrances earn a spot in my evolving top 10!
