I’ve always believed that scent is the quickest way to be remembered.
A trace on your collar, a whisper on your skin, a memory that lingers long after I’ve slipped away.
Here are a few of my favourite perfumes — my secret weapons — the ones that turn a glance into a second look, a touch into something you can’t forget.
Debaser by D.S. & Durga
Debaser smells like a forbidden kiss in the afternoon sun — hot skin, sweet fruit, and that slow, lazy feeling of a day you never want to end. Fig, coconut milk, and tonka bean blend into something wickedly irresistible. I wear this when I want you thinking about me hours later, still feeling my warmth on your fingertips.
Dark Rum by Malin+Goetz
This one is pure mischief. Dark Rum is deep, boozy, and dangerously sexy — the kind of scent that makes you lean in closer without even realising it. It’s the smell of midnight secrets and lips brushing just a little too close. When I wear this, the night usually ends somewhere… unexpected.
Sangre Dulce by Strangers Parfumerie
Sangre Dulce — sweet blood — is temptation bottled. It’s all lush jasmine, sticky orange blossom, and a teasing swirl of patchouli. It’s the scent I reach for when I’m feeling particularly… persuasive. One breath and suddenly everything sounds like a good idea.
Lost Cherry by Tom Ford
Cheeky. Naughty. Absolutely delicious. Lost Cherry bursts open with ripe cherries and creamy almonds, melting into something darker and more dangerous. It’s innocence with a sly wink, the kind of perfume that leaves people wondering if you’re as sweet as you smell. (Spoiler: not always.)
Blonde by Dedcool
Fresh, bright, and just a little wicked underneath. Blonde is the scent of clean sheets after a long night, of sunlight on bare skin, of mornings you don’t want to end. It’s playful, effortless, and just a little addictive — kind of like me, if I’m being honest.
Perfume isn’t just something I wear — it’s something I leave behind.
A soft reminder, clinging to your clothes, whispering my name when you’re alone.
Get close enough, and maybe you’ll find out which one I’m wearing today.
