Perfume for Mom

21 Perfume for Mom My dad hates shopping. I'm his only daughter, so he counts on me to help him choose my mom's birthday gifts. A few days ago, we went to some stores to buy some perfume as a gift for Mom. But we couldn't find a good one. On the way out, we walked by the men's counter and noticed a really nice men's cologne. I said to my dad, “ It's too bad that this cologne is for men because it smells great and Mom would love it! " Suddenly, I realized that we had been shopping for a long time and I had to go to work. I said goodbye to my father and told him, “ Just keep looking, Dad, and you'll find one. " That night at her birthday party, my dad gave my mom her perfume. She loved it! Everyone was having fun. My Uncle Ted is a large man. He and his wife were standing near my parents. My mom and dad suddenly noticed that his cologne smelled familiar.

Uncle Ted said very loudly, “ Hey, you're wearing the same cologne as me! " My mom was a little shocked and embarrassed. Then, Uncle Ted’s wife said that Ted's cologne was called “ Summer Time" . She then asked what my mom's perfume was called. Mom replied, " I don't know. It came in a fancy sprayer bottle. " She glared at my dad. He had a look of panic on his face. After the party, my dad confessed. “ I bought men's perfume and a fancy sprayer, and then I put the perfume in the sprayer bottle. " My mom has a good sense of humour, so she knew she could tease him. “ So you think a man's cologne suits me better than a lady's perfume?" she said with a smile, winking at me as she said it. My poor dad didn't know what to say. " Uh, no. . . Well, it. . . " he stammered. My mom laughed, but it made me think. Who's to say what scent is for men or for women? If it smells nice, it smells nice. As for the perfume my dad bought for my mom, they solved that problem. They both wear it!
