It's Wednesday, which means only one thing. Yes, only ONE. It's Pieces of Wisdom day, and this Wednesday we are covering the deep and sophisticated scents you all wore in high school.
Couldn't I have picked a day that wasn't as hard to write as "Wednesday"? Couldn't I have had Pieces of Wisdom Sunday? But no.
Y'all all are killing me with your Sweet Honesty. And yes, that IS Mindy from Mork and Mindy in this ad. Plus also Sweet Honesty has angelica root. What a relief.
For those of us hoping Chris Hansen would come in and ask for some sweet tea and put us on Dateline, we wore Love's Baby Soft. I totally wore this and sadly still have some. I bought it to be funny but sometimes I put it on. Because I am odd.
We also wore Love's Fresh Lemon, and I was among you, apparently being the Love's people's target demographic. I remember wearing the perfume and also some lemon shampoo, and some guy in homeroom saying, "What smells like lemons?" and being traumatized and never wearing Love's Fresh Lemon again.
Because who DOESN'T want to look like Katherine Hepburn in On Golden Pond? Charlie. By Revlon.
Wore that, too. What was my problem? Pick a scent. Geez.
Is this woman vomiting into a bowl? Obsession. The fragrance to mask eating disorders. I hate to tell you I wore this too, in college.
A lot of you said Skin, and do you know Sarah Jessica Parker still wears this? I mean, she probably claims she wears her actual perfume made by her now, but till she made that crappy stuff she always swore she wore Skin Musk. It made me like her even more, that she wore $10 drug store perfume.
Do hummingbirds even LIKE vanilla?
So there you go. What slayed me is we all wore the same stuff. There were very few outliers. I guess those marketers do their job!
Oh, wait.
This was probably the same person who picked Meat Loaf last week.
