Like being dipped in a jar of vanilla syrup and not being able to escape, except instead of syrup it’s literally the crush of older aunties, their bangles clinking as they pinch your cheeks, too much lipstick, crazy amounts of food, fizzy drinks and dizzying music, itchy outfits, friends you see on special occasions.
The next time you see them, you’ll be taller and so will they, new outfits bought specially for this smell. The florals and sweetness blending into the hall, seeping into your hair, making you forget that the smell isn’t yours and it came from somewhere else.
Givenchy Dahlia Divin Le Nectar de Parfum: so intense that it’s best for cold days or fancy nights out.
