I bought this perfume because I wanted to remember someone I met online. We never met in person, but she became part of my everyday life in a quiet, unexpected way.

I was usually the one reaching out first, lagi akong unang nagme-message. She was busy, but when she did show up, it felt easy. Somewhere along the way, it stopped feeling one-sided. Talking to her became something I naturally looked forward to.

The scent reminds me of her.

Clean, warm, like after a long warm bath, soft skin, freshly washed clothes, nothing heavy or loud. Just something close to you, almost unnoticeable until you really pay attention.

And it does not stay for long.

For most people, it fades after a few hours. But I still catch it on myself sometimes, faint but enough to bring things back for a moment.

Same with her.

Hindi rin siya nagtagal sa life ko. We don’t talk anymore. I deleted everything, and I do not really have the courage to message her on iMessage. I found her TikTok and IG, but I am afraid to reach out. I feel insecure, like I do not really know where I stand anymore.

I completely forgot to save her Reddit username, so I am not even sure if she is still here. I still miss her and I hope she is okay.

So I just leave it there.

Instead of sending a message, I wear perfume.

That is why this perfume feels personal. Every note reminds me of her, the warmth, the comfort, the quiet way it lingers.

I have NR Poudrée on the way, hoping it enhances Pure Musc and makes it last a bit longer.

Not sure if it will.

If there were a way to make certain people stay a little longer too, I probably would have ordered that instead.

So yeah, 10/10 sya for me!

Mabango. Memorable. Hindi lang nagtagal.

Does anyone else associate a perfume with a person?
