Perfume Lyrics

Geneviève wears Dior
Margaret wears Trésor

But you don't wear no perfume

Deborah wears Clinique
Marianne wears Mystique
Judith wears Shalimar
But you don't wear no perfume

That's why I want to spend my life with you
That's why I want to spend my life with you
That's why I want to spend my life with you

Anna wears CK1
Jeanie wears Opium
Trisha wears No.5
But you don't wear no perfume

Susan wears St. Laurent
Janie wears L'Air du Temps
Kirstin wears Davidoff
But you don't wear no perfume

That's why I want to spend my life with you
That's why I want to spend my life with you
That's why I want to spend my life with you

The olefactory sense is the sense
That most strongly evokes memories of the past
Well screw the past

That's why I want to spend my life with you
That's why I want to spend my life with you
That's why I want to spend my life with you
That's why I want to spend my life with you

That's why I want to spend my life with you
That's why I want to spend my life with you
That's why I want to spend my life with you
That's why I want to spend my life with you

Geneviève wears Hermès

But you don't wear no perfume

But you don't wear no perfume

That's why I want to spend my life with you
That's why I want to spend my life with you
That's why I want to spend my life with you

Carol wears Cacharel

Cynthia wears J'Adore
But you don't wear no perfume

Deborah wears Polo Sport
But you don't wear no perfume

That's why I want to spend my life with you
That's why I want to spend my life with you

That's why I want to spend my life with you
That's why I want to spend my life with you
That's why I want to spend my life with you

That's why I want to spend my life with you
That's why I want to spend my life with you
That's why I want to spend my life with you
That's why I want to spend my life with you

That's why, that's why, that's why, that's why
That's why, that's why, that's why, that's why

Cool! First Comment! I love this song. I don't really get it, but I like it.

Cover art for Perfume lyrics by Sparks

It's about a guy who is reminded of Ex-Girlfriends whenever he smells certain perfumes, he's finally found a girl who doesn't wear perfume, and "that's why [he] wants to spend [his] life with [her]".

What Shannon said. The gentleman in the song remembers his exes when he smells certain perfumes, so he's happy his new girlfriend/fiancee/wife/bride eschews the wearing of fragrances. BTW, the fragrances mentioned in this song all do really exist and can be purchased at any number of fine retailers. :-)
