Okay, so I was asked recently what I would call my “scent”
As someone who ends up in the gym 6 days a week, my immediate thought was the smell of my deodorant (it’s a great smell, really! Fresh and clean). My second thought was the set of perfume I have from Skylar Body that they were awesome enough to send me to test out.
But neither of those were what I could really call my own.
The Scent Room
The place I was asked this question just so happened to be a niche perfumery called The Scent Room
The owner, Deborah, is all about expressing your personality through scent. It’s personally something I never gave a ton of thought to, which is crazy because smell is the sense that is most closely linked to memory.
Have you ever smelled something and were immediately transported into a memory of a different time in your life, or of a specific person?
It’s the power of scent!
So naturally, I had to find my scent. duh.
SO I went on a “scent journey”. All of the perfumes are hand-picked by the owner to display in the shop. They are from exclusive lines that are typically extremely hard to find. Every scent has a story behind it, and I got to hear all about them from the owner, Deborah. She was incredible in helping me find which scents I loved the most and explaining exactly what my nose was smelling.
Some of my favorites were:
Roja Danger
Abel
Hysteria
Child
If you’re like me, and you never really thought past “mm that smells pretty nice”, you should definitely find a perfumery near you to really find your scent.
What scent do you want people to remember you by?

Never thought of personalized scents according to personality, but it does make a lot of sense. I prefer stronger scents, which is close to my own personality.
I never thought of smells like this before… you have changed my perspective of good smells
I have a sensitive nose so sometimes there are perfumes that are too much for my nose. Though I like wearing perfumes but not too much.
Expressing yourself through scent is any interesting way to approach parfum. I love your approach!
love that coffee table – it’s gorgeous.
Such an interesting title! And the article is so much fun and yes, you’re right, everybody has his own perfect scent!
I have a migraine, usually, I don’t really use perfumes and any scents. But sometimes if the smell doesn’t trigger my head I am using it most of the time. I have to see how these scents goes.
Wow, I never knew that our personality carries their own scent. I have to find mine. I don’t wear perfume a lot because I work with kids.
