It's a grey, gloomy afternoon where I am. Pretty soon the rain will start falling heavily, creating a pewter gloss on the road.
Cold winds will nip at people's necks, making them pull their woolen scarves a little bit more tighter. Days like these make me dream of long, lazy, summer days. I am wearing daisy today to cheer myself up. A perfume that holds memories of golden sunshine, flower fields and picnics near my secret little stream that I like to think no one else knows about.
Daisy by Marc Jacobs, smells like a carefree day spent in wild summer meadows and sunshine.
My infatuation with daisy fields started way back when I was a little girl. I used to sit mesmerized in front of the TV, watching Alice sing her heart out amid the daisies.Nice to know that somewhere out there,a place like this truly does exist :)
I fell in love with the bottle alone, and bought it unsniffed a few years back, somehow knowing that I wont be disappointed.
Somehow I can't detect separate notes too clearly. It's so well blended, that all I get is an airy composition that stays linear from start to finish with hints of violet leaves and woods. It's a simple, fresh, innocent, everyday perfume with no hidden agenda.I don't find is floral at all, but rather green and outdoorsy. Like cut grass and fresh air. I can't detect gardenia, jasmine or vanilla on my skin. Lasts a long time on me without reapplying. Not to argue with mother nature, but if daisies had a scent, I think this perfume would fit the flower perfectly.

OMG I wanted to get this for soo long, but still couldn't get my hands on it! I'm just irking for this, as you know as a fellow perfume-obsessor, what it's like to have something on your list and for the collection to be incomplete without it; yeah, this is it.
Can you believe I have never smelled this perfume? It looks like I need to. Who doesn't love a pick-me-up?
