Do you like Boden as much as I like it? Probably not… I look forward to the arrival of the escapist little catalogs more than to my W or Allure. More even than to Perfumer & Flavorist. I would love to live on the pages of Boden…in the carefully understated and deliberately casual world of the inconspicuous (British upper-ish) middle class elegance, the world of fun skirts, comfy jersey tops

June 13th, 2007 — Joint Projects, Miscellaneous, Mr Colombina from Colombina (Marina) @ Perfume-Smellin' Things Perfume Blog
Mr. Colombina came up with a little game, in which he randomly names famous people and I name a perfume that I would wear if I were to meet them.
