So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

By Paul Mancini

People love women's French perfumes. It is no wonder that the women's fragrance industry worldwide makes around 9 billion dollars every year. It is also well known that fragrances have been around for a very long time. This is due to the fact that people always like to smell nice, and hence perfume manufacturers are on a never ending quest to try to come up with fragrances that will appeal to the masses.

Through the past several decades, several brands of perfumes have been introduced to the market with mixed results. Some of them seemed to smell good, however there are only some that remain on the market to become all-time favorite scents, used by a large number of women, and endorsed by some of the most well-known superstars in the world.

The tastes for women's perfumes are different for every individual. Some folks like a strong fragrance but many like a subdued one. Despite this fact, the tastes for perfumes always have a point where everyone's tastes coincide and complement. This is irrespective of cost and ultimately leads us to the enduring perfumes. Women, both past and present, never tire of them. So without further ado, here are several of the top fragrances worn by women of all time.
