Sally you put a smile on my face about perfume. I recall dabbing my favorite perfume on my wrist and and the soft spots both soft on on my fore head.

Your contest entry reads well, Sally. I enjoyed reading it. You did a great job expressing what your mother taught you at an early age. Your lines flow smoothly with great imagery. Great videos, too!
Best wishes in the contest.
Respectfully, Jan

Hello Sal.

This is something I know nothing about. My wife tells me what perfume she wants and I buy it for her every year. I never even used after shave. My wife likes my "outdoor" smell. That's what she tells me all the time. Good luck in the contest.

Nice presentation. I think your husband but be very proud of the glamour girl that smells so delightful. All this information is helpful and I'm wondering how I can continue to be ready to go in the five to ten minutes I normally allow my self for grooming.

That is so very true, Sally. When you feel good about yourself you also project that to others who instantly feels attracted to you. That's just how it is. It's quite basic really, some to think about it. I loved your poem. Good luck. Ulla xxx

Hello Sal!
I smiled all the way through your well-crafted and delightful poem!
Manicured nails, usually red lipstick, and of course, Estee Lauder "Youth Dew." Just all part of who I am. But I dig in my gardens without gloves, sometimes forgo lipstick, and the perfume has become part of me to the point that I cannot smell it! Yikes!
Loved reading of your time at Barbizon! How I remember Barbizon nighclothes. And I, too, modeled... a lifetime ago!
Thank you for the memories! A fine rendering!

    My mother wore 'Beautiful' by Estee Lauder. We have much in common. Your beauty shines in your portfolio shot, within and without. Thank you for the lovely review and kind compliments. Sal XOs...

Well, it's always nice to know that women care about smelling good. Even some of us old mean prefer perfume, not cologne, in hopes of touching off the senses to go with our outfits. LOL. Thanks for sharing.

I love your cute poem Sally, that spray of perfume adds the finishing touches to our routine before we hit the town for a night out, we must also smell good as well as look good, I enjoyed your very feminine words here, love Dolly x

I grew up with a father who believed that beauty stuff would turn me into a flousy. I was in college before I learned to wear make-up and 32 when I got my ears pierced. LOL I enjoyed reading your contest entry and good luck.
