Nothing is More Memorable Than The Perfect Fragrance

Have you ever been walking, minding your business or lost in emails on your phone during a busy day, and smelled something that made you stop in your tracks? This happens to me all the time. Whether it’s the smell of turkey this past weekend that immediately brought me back to memories of my mom & dad in the kitchen in Ottawa during Thanksgiving, or the smell of a cologne that brought back memories of specific men in my life. I am someone who loves to smell good and I believe that choosing the right fragrance completes my morning routine.

Over the years, my exploration of the Canadian fashion world has been inspiring to say the least.

Is anyone else amazed that we are already in October? It feels as though 2018 has flown by, and along with it, some incredible experiences that we have been able to share with you all.

Not only because we love the experiences they have helped curate for us from coast-to-coast in Canada, but also because both Catherine & I are active cardholders in our personal lives.
