Go figure.

"Maybe there is..." he said, and considered the frgrance bottles on shelves all around them. Technically this was part of his job, so yes, he ought to be able to manage just that. Theo pushed his hair up and out of his eyes, raked his fingers through it, then picked out the sample bottle of a slim and elegantly curved gold number. He spritzed it onto the inside of his own wrist, took a sniff.

Something about it reminded him so intensely of that glamorous French witch, his mother. Theo left that part out as he smiled lazy at Florrie. "This one would suit you." He raised the sample bottle. "May I?"
Florrie didn't enjoy switching off. She wanted to, but she also didn't like being left alone with her thoughts. Her kind of relaxation came in different ways, though she was obviously all about pampering. "What about you? Can you switch off?" she asked innocently, before a coy smile crossed her face. "Or do you close your eyes and continue to think of spritzing perfumes?" The blonde wondered what else he did with his time.

Probably for the best that he left that out - Florrie was absolutely not one who would take kindly to be compared to someone's mother, glamourous French witch or not. She paused for a moment, watching him as though evaluating her trust in his choice, but really she was just subtly trying to separate the fragrance he'd just sprayed from the other smells that the shop carried. She did, however, lean forward slightly, tilting her head and moving her hair out of the way for best access to her neck.
