Cant remeber Topaz but I was given pefume as a present it was in a light blue bottle,shaped like a lady, I think it was avon.
Anyway, I loved the smell till one day i went to get my over the knee boots from under the bed,only to discover the cat had peed on them so....I covered them in perfume as I was in a hurry.
Kind of went off it as it always reminded me of cat pee lol
I was only 17 at the time :((
