Elizabeth and James Nirvana Black & White

I've shared my love for Elizabeth & James Nirvana White in a recent monthly favourites. I instantly fell in love with the fresh scent. Someone else noticed as well...Preston. We aren't the typical couple when gift-giving. He has never bought me flowers or make-up or taken me shopping-I don't know do couples do that? In high-school, I remember when we were first dating after Bio and before lunch, he would always say to me, "You smell funny" and I would ask "Funny good or funny bad?" He responded, "Just funny." To his credit, all through high school my signature scent was Britney Spears Fantasy, so it probably was very funny...

Anyway, back to present day, Preston commented on the perfume I was wearing, and it was Nirvana White. I went on to explaining probably too much about it and how it had a pair, the Black version, and how you could layer them and...yeah too much detail. A few days later, a Sephora box arrives. At first, I thought I must have been online sleep shopping, but Preston had ordered me Nirvana Black. I was so surprised. 1. He remembered what it was called. 2. He went to Sephora.com. 3. He bought me perfume. What?! I think it appealed to his Pokemon sensibilities where you have to catch them all.

I love both these scents. White is fresh and floral while Black is warm and cozy. Combine them and you have a sort-of spicy scent. White is perfect for the daytime while Black is perfect for night. Though, I have been wearing Black during the day as I like its warm scent during the colder weather. Admittedly, they aren't the most long-lasting fragrance. I am not one to really bother with reapplying perfume, but with the rollerballs, I could easily throw it in my purse. I would love to get the actual bottles one day as they are super pretty.

What's the first fragrance a boyfriend has ever given you?
