Slightly less ridiculous than owning over 300 scents in bottles.

There is nothing even the least bit ridiculous about having that many fragrances. But it would be ridiculous in the extreme to have that many scarves.

That is because your mindset is beclouded by falsehood.

As soon as b1os weighs in, he will agree with me for sure.

I don't even think I could identify 300 scents. I can only think of about 15 off the top of my head.

So you've got a lot to discover. Enjoy the wonderful journey. For the record, I'm wearing Rocabar for the evening. For the day it's been Ambre Sultan.

I find scents to be a waste of money. Also when I smell them on somebody I can't help but think they are trying too hard, or trying to cover up some inadequacy. I don't understand why anybody would want to smell like other people who wear the same thing. Baffling.

So everytime you wear that scarf the scent you're wearing gets mixed with a cuvée of randomness.

I do understand people's love for scent but I do only have one at the time...

Owning so many at once is borderline fetichist...

Nothing wrong with that..
