My first perfume was Mugler’s Angel, and I lived for it. I vividly remember smelling it for the first time as a kid with my grandma. She had a sample of it at home, and I couldn’t get enough of it. I remember thinking it smelled so luxurious and sweet and that anyone that wore it was clearly special. I can’t remember if I bought my first bottle or if my sister did and I just used it all the time (probably the latter). But looking back now, the scent, while playful and fresh with notes of praline, patchouli, and bergamot, feels like a mature scent meant for someone older then little tween me. Still to this day whenever I get a whiff of it, I feel so nostalgic.
I do consider myself to be a fragrance polygamist, so it’s hard to pick a signature scent. With that being said, I cannot get enough of Celui’s The One. I swear I should be the perfume’s PR because I’ve turned so many friends onto it. There’s something so familiar and comforting about its smell, almost as if you’re being spritzed with a big, warm hug. It has notes of jasmine, gardenia, cedarwood, and marigold, which create a mood-boosting blend that I never regret wearing.
