saks fifth avenue in a bottle--really!


i'm always looking for a new fragrance--and every season the search changes, but one thing always stays the same: there's such an emotional connection with scent. we're all looking for the one scent that defines us, capturing who we want to be and even how we are perceived by the world (or maybe that's just me!).

there's something so unmistakably personal about fragrance--sometimes it arrives in a room before you do. it can be the first thing people notice or simply what they remember about you.

i recently got my hands on Bond No. 9's Saks Fifth Avenue for Her and it's EXACTLY how that department store should smell like--or at least how you imagine it would smell like. smooth, sophisticated and subtly glamorous, it's a chic blend of gardenia, jasmine, vetiver and vanilla. it's so lovely and gorgeous that even though i am not a lady who lunches--now, at least, i have the luxury of smelling like one.
