So i spilled the expensive perfume and decided to get a new bottle at the Changi duty free shop. I saw the sample and then just grabbed a new box behind the sample bottle.
Then this morning, when i opened it up, i noticed the difference in the perfume color. I thought it was the lighting in the room and didn't think much of it. Then after i opened the bottle, i immediately sensed the different fragrance. That was when i finally looked at the bottle carefully and shit shit shit!
No, not that i saw shit in it, or it smelled like shit. It's just that i got the wrong perfume! Darn, it was No. 19!!!
I do NOT like this fragrance at all. Chanel No. 5 smells great; it has a very light and fresh fragrance that smells like talcum powder. As for No. 19, it has a sharper smell that's more suited for those alluring mature women.
I totally blamed it on the merchandiser, who simply put different perfume behind No. 5. No wait, i think the designer is to be blamed; how could they design the box and bottle to be exactly the same, and the only difference is the small number printed on the label?!
Ok lah, i know it's my own fault for not looking at the package by assuming the merchandises would be arrange nicely in place. Now i'll have to go without perfume for three weeks. As for this bottle, since i've already bought it and do not intend to wear it, i'm gonna give it to mom as a gift. Then i don't have to buy other stuff for her anymore.
