Sometimes when I'm sniffing around perfume counters I get tired of trying to figure out what I like and try to imagine what someone I know would like. I compulsively attach personalities to the perfumes I know, so why not try it the other way around? And maybe when I strike it rich I'll just go around buying people the fragrances I associate with them.

So that's going to be my project for the next couple of posts. I shall play matchmaker with my friends and the fragrances that remind me of them. Starting with Alissa. . . .
