A #perfumesky #PSA for anyone scrambling to purchase a #ValentinesDay gift for their special someone: fucking ask them for the specific fragrance they want.

I don’t know your partner, their tastes, or how fragrance wears on their skin, so I can’t recommend something they will love.

Comments

Let me do that again:
Try TALKING to your partner for Valentine's Day. Or any day.

As someone who deletes a post when an errant apostrophe appears, I feel you.

I gotta do something, lest I continue to give the air of mild illiteracy

There is no shame in asking your partner exactly what they want when it comes to perfume. Coming to my fragrance studio with a vague idea of what they like will get you one of two responses:

1. ”I sell gift cards.”
2. “Sorry, I can’t help you.”

I can’t resell a perfume once it’s been purchased and taken outside my studio. If you bought it, it’s yours. Don’t like it? Do a fragrance swap with friends and family.

I don’t do takesy-backsies, so! Talk to your partner. They’re always telling you to communicate, right? Ipso facto.

Thank you for coming to my TEDTalk.
