Perfume
Celine Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

다녀갔을까 네 마음에도
작은 무언갈 남긴걸까
바램접어 둔채 나를 다독이면
그날 밤엔 내 꿈에 나와

자그마한 틈도 남김이 없이
너로 채워지던 짧은 하루가
길어지는 순간 나를 이끄는
너의 향기를 찾아 헤매이다

You are my...
오늘도 하지 못한
내 입가에 맴돌다 늘 사라지던 말
너에게로 닿길 바라다
다가서면 흩어지는
나란 향기는 늘 어설프지만
널 닮아가

그 무엇 하나 내 마음처럼
어찌할 수 없던 날들과
아주 잠시나마 기대하게 하는
모든 순간들 다 소중해

어쩌면 이대로 길을 잃는대도
두렵지 않았던 모든 이유

You are my...
오늘도 하지 못한
내 입가에 맴돌다 늘 사라지던 말
너에게로 닿길 바라다
다가서면 부서지는
이런 나라도 네가 웃어 줄까, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh

You are my...
어쩌면 오랬동안
그대곁에 머물다 전하지 못할 말
언젠가는 닿길 바라다
다가서면 부서질까
입에 담아둔채로 널 부른다, my love

You are my...
아직 끝맺지 못한
이 말에 끝에 내 세상이 담겨있다고
퍼져 가는 너란 향기로
시들었던 날 안아줄 때




네 품으로 물든 오늘에
안겨 쉴께

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Celine's song Perfume speak of someone who is searching for the trace of a past lover in their memories. The song begins with the question of whether the lover had left anything behind in their heart, as they wonder if they had left a small trace. They then realize that even the shortest moments spent with their lover were filled with them, and they begin to search for the scent of their lover, hoping to catch it again.


The song continues with the chorus, where they confess their love for their past lover, hoping that they can reach them with their words. They express the fear of losing them, but how every moment spent with them means everything to them. They wonder if they will ever be able to say all the words they have kept to themselves, and they hold onto the scent of their lover that lingers in their memories.


The line, "you are my" appears in the chorus multiple times, highlighting how the person's past lover continues to be a part of them, no matter how much time has passed. The lyrics are filled with longing and a sense of nostalgia as they hold onto the memories of their past love.

Smelling Great Fragrance Reviews
Okay so if I may ask. In my modest collection I wear mfk masculin plurieal
Ysl tuxedo
Rive gauche
Armani vetiver DHiver
Sartorial
Beau du jour
Oud wood
1725 Casanova
I have several creed bottles but don’t find any of them special aside from royal oud. From this list can you point my nose in a new direction? By the way I sampled Jovoy incident diplomatic and I think it’s nice but I have to experiment with it more. Thanks for that great review. I really enjoy the channel. Keep up the great work

Dans Paris is a masterpiece. It smells like a nutty thanksgiving dessert. Parade is also a masterpiece, I just have to be in the mood to wear neroli. La Peau Nuit and Cologne Francais are the understated hidden gems

Simon Yuen

This is the line I'm most excited for this year. Hedi Slimane oversaw the creation of Dior Homme, Eau Noire, Cologne Blanche, Bois d'Argent, and Fahrenheit 32. He also designed the Dior Privee bottles.

Celine perfumes are amazing. My favorite is #1 nightclubbing and #2 black tie. Have you tried the two new releases yet?

kt

I still don't know he designed it.

And Higher / Higher Energy which we’re both awesome

I'm quite impressed by this collection. In love with several. So I hope you get to try them soon! :)

Thank god you did the video on this one Sebastian! I’m in a shock right now. I went to Celine boutique today and tried all of its fragrances only because my friend who lives outside of new york asked me to. I didn’t expect much at all, probably because the friend who asked wasn’t really that much into fragrance to begin with... And I was holymoly totally blown away!

Great review. Versace is pronounced 'Ver-SAH-chay', 'Dans Paris' is pronounced 'Dahn Pah-REE', 'La Peau Nue' is 'Luh Poo Noo' and Hedi Slimane is pronounced 'EH-dee Slee-MAHN'. I'm looking forward to trying Dans Paris myself since some forum folk are saying it reminds them of a heavier Dior Cologne Blanche, which is now impossible to find and eye-popping expensive when it shows up on eBay.

BigBoy Finesse

Yeah, like Srs-Lee said, versace is pronounced „ver saa che“ with a rolled R if you want to be 100% italian lol. It’s not chay though.
