    This perfumer is right on the money. The best smell ever is a baby right after a bath, in freshly laundered jammies, cuddling with me….. :)

      PS: Hit enter before I was done. The worst smell ever is my 12 year old son’s feet (and shoes) after a soccer game….. :)

        Yeah, she was right to worry that the future may not smell as good!

    I love the smell of my puppy all warm and cuddled up above my head on the pillow.
