  • First fragrance
  • It might have been Heaven Sent by Helena Rubenstein or Love’s Baby Soft. I also distinctly remember buying Chanel No 5 at Rexall Square.
  • Favorite smells (not perfume)
  • I like the smell of manure when you’re on a roadtrip and drive past a farm. I like odd scents. I like the faint scent of a skunk. I love jasmine, gardenia, roses. I love the smell of wet Earth.
  • Interests beside fragrance
  • The stock market, shoes, movies, vintage clothes, history (kind of).
