The Scents of a Woman

Ah, in the shower, using the yummy patchouli and apricot goat-milk bar soap. Great almond shampoo with coconut conditioner. Step out and use the regular lime deodorant and then after toweling dry, use the special mint-scented heel smoothing cream. Slather on cherry-almond body lotion but also use the spice body powder “under” the skin “overhangs”. Top it off with a special “feminine” fresh-scent spray where I am feminine. Put lemony mousse in my hair. One final additive: the medicinal arthritis gel on my knees. I take my upper plate out of the bleach solution and scrub it with a cinnamon solution. I use a minty goop for adhesive and brush my teeth with fresh gel. Of course I finish with Listerine mouth wash! Next, put a special lavender astringent on my face, followed by a lavender day glow cream and then the orange sun-block. Spritz all over with a honeydew cologne. My clothes smell of “daylight” detergent and “Snuggle softness” fabric softener. The jacket I want to wear has a musky smell so I spray it with Fabric freshener. Then, my lipstick is light pink with a cherry flavor; the hand lotion is cocoa butter. On top of all that goes the citrus gel on my hands to ward off germs.

That’s 30 “flavors” and aromas and I’m beginning to understand where the womanly scent originates. However, I recognize this particular conglomeration as the smell of an old lady.
