I think it's the... Today I bought my first perfume in a shop. The shop is in Central, and the brand name is kind of hard to pronounce in English. It’s a famous big brand perfume shop. I went in, and the sales associate asked me how she could help. I said I wanted to try some perfumes. She said she could help me, and then she sprayed the perfume on a paper strip and gave me two to smell. Oh, that was great! At the time, there were a lot of people coming in, so she left us there to help others. My sister and I were there together, and we tried another perfume by ourselves. We tried this and that. Suddenly, the sales associate came back and asked if we had any preferences, like whether we liked floral scents, woody scents, or other types. I mentioned I favored a certain style of perfume, and she suggested some for me. I smelled them, and they were quite good. I couldn't decide whether to buy the first one I planned to buy or the other one I thought was good in the shop. I eventually chose one. When I went to pay, the lady asked me if I had another favorite scent. She offered to give me a small sample. I said, 'Oh, thanks so much!' Then she helped me check out and gave me the sample of the perfume. That was so great.
