Fragrance Mists and Body Mists Review

I tend to acquire decants and samples when I'm in a midst of a crash out (I'd buy actual perfumes whenever I'm in dire mental straits if my funds allow me but it does not!), so might as well put my quick thoughts about them. I'll try to update this list as I try new ones. Bath & Body Works ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ (I have repurchased these) Wild Honeysuckle - FANTASTIC! One of their more complex fragrances that I've tried. Honey right out of the gate. Smells briefly of kisses (type of aroma beads that was popular in the 90s).

She tried them all and it tasted bland so she decided to cook food with Ajinomoto. As she was about to eat, she hears the family nearby and she hides under the dining table. The family was surprised with all the strange, new food but delighted that everything tastes really good. They lifted up the table cloth and saw Goldilocks eating a chicken drumstick. It ended with them happily sharing a meal.
