A Cowboy and Me

by Tammy Gilbert - Story Teller & Published Author, Decorator & Aesthetician

Coco le Vicks

July 15, 2018 by Tammy Gilbert

Each season I search for a new eau de parfum or perfume.  I’ve never been one of those gals that has a favorite scent to be worn daily, no matter the season.  I honestly think that in my past life, I was a gypsy.  I have never feared change.  Ok, that’s not totally true.  I fear gray hair and have been fighting that change since I turned 45.  And the struggle is real y’all.  Thank the sweet lord for my amazing hairstylist who keeps my hair healthy and grayless.

So, back to my seasonal scents. Once I find a scent, I immerse myself in it.  Body lotion, body shampoo, body oil and perfume…I love it all.  But in moderation.  I learned that a lady never wants her perfume to enter a room before she does.  But she does want it to linger just a smidge when she leaves.

Most of the time Cowboy will tell me that he likes “my smell”.  He’s so romantic.  But sometimes he does not.

One morning I was just about to walk out of the door for work.

COWBOY: (opening the door for me, he’s such a gentleman)  You smell like Vicks.

ME:  What? I didn’t use any Vicks.

COWBOY: It’s not a bad thing.  I’m just saying…you smell like Vicks.

Not thinking much of it, (he’s a guy, and most guys don’t get the whole perfume thing) so I head off to work.  The next morning the same thing happens, he tells me that I smell like Vicks.  So I go back in my bathroom, grab my perfume bottle and take it to him.

ME:  Smell this.

COWBOY: How did they get Vicks into a bottle?

ME:  This is Coco Chanel, it does not smell like that!

COWBOY:  (chuckling)  Coco le Vicks is more like it.

ME:  I’m going to be late coming home tonight.

COWBOY:  Do you have a meeting?

ME:  No, apparently I’m going shopping for another perfume.

’til next Sunday y’all- Tammy
