Do I Smell Like A Grapefruit Yet?
Seriously! According to the package, this “Body Fragrance” confection “aromatizes body with a sweet fragrance.” I imagined it to be kind of like eating raw garlic – except your skin is supposed to exude the attractive aroma of grapefruit instead of making everyone in the train hastily change seats – but I’ve been popping these candies like, well, candy, and I can’t tell if it’s working or not. Can one of you pop over here and take a delicate whiff, please?
Hmm, if it fails to make me smell like a large citrus fruit, I hope it’ll at least make me brisk.
I’d rather smell like a grapefruit, but if it fails to deliver, I’ll have to try for grape, berry or rose.

Where did you find them? I want to try rose.

According to the reviews I’ve seen online, rose is the one that works best! If you try it, tell me if it works! I found these at what looked like a pop-up store called “Halloween Party” (although it was a lot bigger thanmost pop-up stores). It’s on that long passageway between the Marunouchi line (C exits) and the Hibiya/Ginza lines (A & B exits) at Ginza Station.

I never go to that part of town, but I’ll keep my eyes open for the rose ones and will let you know!
