A QUICKIE ABOUT ‘MY PERSONAL PERFUME’
Something which many of us don’t realize at all, it just how wonderful Annick Goutal is. It was in fact first introduced to the world nearly 30 years ago, in 1981. An age dominated by style, is was the perfect decade for perfumes as original and perfect as those of Annick Goutal’s to be born, and it still retains its distinctive classic French character to this day and age.
I was first introduced to Annick Goutal by my grandmother in 2000, when I received some for my 21st birthday. It was her personal favourite, my mother’s too, and it later grew to be mine as well. But one of the first things I learned about these expensive liquids was that one must not wear them on an everyday basis (unless one really can afford to). For me Eau de Camille (my favourite) has always been a perfume to be loved and treasured, and a perfume which is only to be worn on special occasions. (Eg. Don’t use it as a substitute for Frebreeze!)
The next thing I learned was just how much this magnificent perfume meant to my grandmother. She had tried her first sample when she was a woman of 60, and fell in love with it. It was also a wedding anniversary present given to her by my grandfather, giving it a huge semtimental value to her, as she lost him during the winter of 2001. Now, if this perfume had such a direct link with my family, then I was going to feel it too. I loved my Grandfather, and the perfumes of Annick Goutal always makes me think of him, which I think is nice.
The final thing I learned (and this is the opinionated part) is that (for me) Annick Goutal Eau de Camille is simply the best perfume in existence. I just love it: its distinctive and indescribable fragrance, its beautiful natural-looking colour. Everything about this perfume for me is just wonderful.
So there you have it: The Rolls-Royce of perfume, all summed up in a bottle. Hope you enjoyed this!
