perfumes and colognes, women's perfume Everyone knows not to spray more then three squirts of perfumes and colognes before heading out but sometimes we forget. Yesterday, on the way to the grocery store, I left my apartment and went down the hallway leading to the stairs and parking garage. As soon as I closed my door, the scent of women's perfume hit my nostrils. It didn’t smell bad. Didn’t smell great but wasn’t like picking up the scent of a garbage can. As I walked down the hall, the scent stayed on my nose hairs. It got stronger and stronger as I got closer.

 I had the feeling of being inside of some detective story following the scent of a scarlet clad client. Don’t ask me why. Probably have been watching too much Bored to Death on HBO. Anyway, when I rounded the corner into the parking garage I saw my neighbor driving past after just backing out of her spot. It had to have been her women's perfume. If I smelled it all the way to my car, she had to have been bathing in the stuff. I can imagine it smelled very strong in her car. Reminded me of the three squirt rule for perfumes and colognes. Always a good rule to follow.
