”Något kvinnligt?”, frågar hon. ”Ja!”, svarar han med ett lättat leende som om hon hade läst hans tankar. ”Något friskt?”. ”Ja…precis.”
Och så går de från presentbox till presentbox, via säsongens nya dofter från kända modehus och kändisar.. Inga mer följdfrågor ställs. Hon tar säkra kort och han är tacksam. Han betalar sina två presentboxar med "kvinnlig frisk" parfym.
Det är inte det här parfym handlar om. Det finns så mycket mer.

He says he's looking for a perfume. Yes, it's a gift he says, to the saleswoman. For his girlfriend, he adds. The sales woman knew it the moment she saw him and strode towards him. She sees them every day, they're great customers for someone who gets a bonus per sold product. He is your standard well-dressed nice young man, and he has absolutely no idea how to navigate between all the bottles, gift sets and paper strips. When this nice woman who seems to know her stuff caught him, he was relieved and easily manipulated.
"Something feminine?" she asks. "Yes," he says with a relieved smile as if she had read his thoughts. "Something fresh?". "Yeah ... exactly."
And so they go from gift box to gift box, passing the season's new scents from fashion houses and celebrities. No more questions. She picks boxes and bottles, and he is just grateful. He pays for his two gift boxes with "feminine fresh" perfume.
This is not what perfume is about.
