About Me
- ForTheLoveOfPerfume
- Thanks for visiting! Since I was a young girl I have happily indulged my sense of smell. Peering through old drawings and gifts for my mother, perfume always held front and center. And that holds true today. Lately, this innate love for stellar scent has been groomed by my fellowship of fragrance lovers and I am so grateful to find a clan in which I truly feel at home. While I do believe some can find a signature scent, I have never found one fragrance to satisfy my insatiable sense of smell. I spontanteously and continually long to experience every fragrance I can get my hands on. Therefore, this blog began as a means to indulge myself and others. Today, I hope to share my thoughts, feelings and ideas about some of my favorite, and not so favorite, scents. I invite you to read and enjoy perfume as I do - a hobby, a diversion, a pleasurable treat.

Happy St. Pat's to you..
I am wearing Chanel Chance.. love this scent. Bel Respiro sounds so complex.. where do you buy it at??
Thanks for the great posts..
Hi Italian Girl!
Chanel Chance is a great choice for a pre-spring day. :-) Bel Respiro is complex in notes, but the feeling of the scent is very relaxed and breezy. Chanel boutiques carry it and I would imagine there is at least one Chanel boutique in Chicago. You can also buy a decant at http://theperfumedcourt.com/. (Much less money than a full bottle!) Tell them "For the Love of Perfume" sent you!
Ooooh. Missed the opportunity to post yesterday for St. Patty's Day. I wore Fleur de Citronnier by the sublime Serge.
Jeannemarie,
What a fabulous choice and it's never too late! I love Fleur de Citronnier this time of year. I hope you had a great day. ;-)
