When I imagine a woman who can have a look that would snatch a rich CEO and knows EXACTLY what she’s worth in the sexiest way, I think about those women from the opening scenes of The Devil Wears Prada…

You know, the ladies who put on all those outfits that would be described with words like, “chic” and “precision”?

Anyway, pretend we know that they’re in their late 20’s or early 30’s. That we know they’re very intelligent…but mysterious.

I think of Dior Poison.

I think of all black chic suits with Agent Provacateur lacy lingerie under that blazer, and stilettos clacking on that marble floor.

I think of a spontaneous candle lit dinner date and cloth napkins.

Because BR540 is for sugar babies, Santal 33 is for hipsters, Angel and Alien by Thierry Muglier and Aquolina’s Pink Sugar reminds me of being 21. We don’t do any of those. Bye Opium, we don’t have time for your cheap coffee grounds. We’re fiercely knowledgeable and the rest of you have no idea what we’re after.

Also if you don’t overspray and just do 1 hit behind the neck, Poison envelops you almost like a veil. It’s there, people know it is, but it isn’t going to ooze all over you like molasses.

A big throwback scent that reminds me of college. Now I’m a working gal in my 30’s and had repurchased their traditional rollerball oil. The cozy, clean, notes still melt well with my vibes and I couldn’t be happier. This fragrance is a safe-space in a bottle and lasts on my skin overnight.

While you can wear musk any season, I think Love by Auric Blends leans more spring just because of its clean and dryness.
