Almond Oil

Almond Oil

I was in the Austin airport waiting for a flight to Dallas to interview for a new job. When a woman asked me what perfume I was wearing. I can’t even remember what kind of perfume I did wear at one point in my life. It has been that long.

I told her I wasn’t wearing perfume and she said, well you smell really good. And then I realized it must be my secret ingredient, almond shower oil. My friend, Queen gave me a bottle for my birthday several years ago and swore it was life changing. I will admit I was skeptical, I figured I would try it, use the bottle and move on. I loved it so much that I have ordered a refill every time I have run out. I love the eco recharge refill (pro-tip: do not try to take it through airport security) and I even set up auto-replenish last time I ordered because that’s one less thing I have to worry about. That, my friends, is a sign that your gift has hit the spot, when the recipient re-orders it herself.

Back to my friend in the airport, I explained that it was L’Occitane Almond Shower Oil and I pulled up a picture on my phone. She got out a notebook and copied down the name. When you find the good stuff, you have to re-order it and then you have to share it!
