Aromatherapy!!!

If buying a new outfit for a trip, back to school, graduation, a wedding,
or any special occasion, treat yourself to a new fragrance!
Just like you are bound to remember that outfit you wore, the music
the band played, the food that you ate, the atmosphere, the weather, or who you were with you will also remember that new scent, likely, every time you smell it for the rest of your life! Wow!!!
You can get a whiff of a certain scent and instantly remember the times when you smelled it before, or who was wearing it, even if it was many moons ago, am I right???
It is amazing how strong the sense of smell is!!!

I'm not saying you HAVE to splurge on a new bottle every time an event comes along. (Although I am cologne...a memory collector myself and must have the bottle!)
A less expensive option is to find a scent you love and get an item in the line like a shower gel, soap, a body spray or a lotion! If cologne, or body product's aren't your thing buy a new candle or a new shampoo in an aroma you love!

The outfit you bought may tear or fray, get too tight or soon be out of style but a fragrance...now that you can wear as often you like! But don't get into the rut of wearing the same fragrance all the time, everyday, for years! (Too predictable!!!)
It is great to have your favorite, or your "signiature scent", but altenate that with other fragrances you love, too! Go crazy! Where a different scent now and then!

Remember...too much of a good thing is too much of a good thing!!! Wear your fragrance lavishly but lightly! You don't want your fragrance to walk into the room before you do!!!
