The Ex used to smell like vanilla perfume. Never when he got home. He had a shower at work, and a bottle of cologne in the car, but the vanilla would still seep into his pores (it's an essential oil), and would come out when we had sex, or when we went running. I always thought it was the strangest thing that he would smell like vanilla when he sweat.
I started crying and I had to put my cat down. But now I'm going to associate vanilla perfume with S., my roomie's sponsee, and not with betrayal.
