You Smell

This morning I applied my LaVanilla perfume, as I do most mornings. As you might have guessed, it smells like vanilla.

I was sitting outside the door of my class at 9am, waiting to be let in, while a girl sitting next to me said "Do you smell that smell? Like pure vanilla? *crinkles nose and tilts head*"

Me: "Yes, I think that's me."
Her: "Oh *Silence* "
Me: "Why? Does it smell bad?"
Her: "No.....it's just a weird smell."
Me: "Vanilla is a weird smell?"
Her: "Yeah. I mean, are you wearing like pure vanilla extract or something?"
Me: "No, I just like natural, non-alcohol smelling smells."
Her: "*Oh. I'm just used to smelling regular perfumes. Juicy Coutor perfume smells good!"
Me: "ummm....oh."

As far as I know, EVERYONE likes the smell of vanilla. It's natural, peaceful, light, feminine. Whereas Juicy Coutor probably smells like an expensive prostitute mixed with alcohol and baby powder. Meh, guess I'm the weird one.
