I mostly shy away from New Year's resolutions, but this was one opportunity I couldn't resist. A few weeks ago, Rebella at Confessions of a Perfume Nerd posted her wishlist for the holiday season. With the year ending, I thought I'd post a hopeful "To Be Purchased In 2010" commitment list, which I am hoping to make come true as soon as I take the bar in February and find a job.

Yes, I realize that's more than 1 bottle a month, but really, some of these choices are rather inexpensive and I'm sure if I shop around and check for swaps and... Okay, yes. I basically just committed myself to spending what will like be at least two grand on perfume next year after samples and impulse buys. Just don't tell my student loan people and everything will be fine...
What about you, dear readers? What purchases do you plan on making to kick off a new decade of scent? What scents combination do you long to discover for yourself?
I'm out for the evening. See you on the flipside, readers. And welcome 2010. We all pray you'll be better than the last decade.
"So I put my hands up.
They’re playing my song,
and the butterflies fly away.
I'm nodding my head like yeah...
I'm moving my hips like yeah...
And I got my hands up.
They’re playing my song.
I know I'm gonna be okay.
Yeah, it's a party in the USA!"
- "Party in the USA," Miley Cyrus
