Giving the gift of memory with COTY Fragrance

Sponsored

Our sense of smell is very powerful, one of the most powerful senses. It’s really crazy how we can completely forget about a memory and simply smelling something can immediately flood those memories back into our brains. For me, perfume and similar fragrance products carry some of the most strong memories for me.

I couldn’t tell you the name of the perfume my mother used when I was growing up, but I could identify it by smell to this day! There was a particular scent that she always wore when she would get dressed up to go out somewhere- and just catching a whiff of that scent even now makes me want to dress up and go out. For this reason, I frequently find myself purchasing fragrance as a gift- it’s not just giving the person an item but being part of a set of memories for another person.

One year, I asked my boyfriend to purchase me a perfume that he liked the scent of- it’s now my favorite to wear. Each time I put it on I think about him carefully selecting the perfect scent…well, if that’s what happened. He may have just picked up the first one on the shelf (he can be a bit clueless like that) but it’s still special either way to me. COTY Fragrance makes really awesome gift sets for even the most clueless of gifters- whether you want to carefully select a fragrance perfect for that special someone or you’re shopping last minute during the hectic holiday and just want a nice gift set that all matches, they make it really easy!

I decided to get my mom a fun COTY Fragrance and picked one up at Walgreens. They had several selections on an endcap in front of the skin health aisle. I chose the Katy Perry Killer Queen set- I think the bottle is super fun looking and I really personally like her fragrances.
