A friend, Joyce, will be celebrating her birthday at the end of the month. A mutual friend asked me what I will be getting Joyce for her birthday. Joyce is planning a birthday party and we are all invited, so there's really no escaping this gift buying.
I said I will be getting Joyce a bottle of original designer perfume. Well, this friend was aghast. She said that one shouldn't give perfume as gifts because it could indicate a subtle message that the gift recipient "smells".
I laughed. I know; it could be true. However, Joyce loves perfume. Not just any perfume, though, but original, designer, perfume. So I think I know her too well than to buy her something else that she would not appreciate as much. Since Joyce loves perfume, why not get her what she likes, even if a gift of perfume may carry a subtle message?
I think that by getting Joyce the perfume that she wants, my gift would be even more appreciated, don't you think so?
