Today we’re helping Shermeen, who is looking for a new everyday fall / winter fragrance. It should be warm and appropriate for the cold Canadian weather, but it shouldn’t scream patchouli or incense or be too dramatic a fragrance. It should also have excellent lasting power and good sillage. She can pay up to $100, and she has easy access to the Bay, Sears and Sephora, although she’s also willing to shop online if she can get a sample. Here is what we know about Shermeen:
She’s in her mid 20s, and is a classically trained singer and law student.
She’s an avid reader (preferring thought-provoking books), a relatively lefty feminist, and she’s almost completely blind and travels with a guide dog.
She likes writing, swimming, and being near water.
She says that although she is very outgoing, talkative and witty, she has few close friends, and needs a lot of “recharging time” if she’s with people too often.
Shermeen likes fresh green florals paired with citrus notes, and white, clean, warm musk scents, as well as aquatic fragrances…
