Spring should be an exciting time of renewal, so you fit the theme perfectly!<br />As for me, I have very few really seasonal perfumes; with just a couple of exceptions, the fragrances I love, I wear all year round... the ones I just like, get neglected all year round.<br />I do reach more frequently for florals in springtime, but it's not like I'm pushing my Guerlains in the back of the cabinet. These are the pros of having a smallish (I rather say well edited) perfume collection: everything can stay very visible and tempt you whan you least expect it! ;)<br />Zazienoreply@blogger.com
