Wow, you smell good. It is a super lovely compliment. One that is probably above so many others, including….
you look great
did you lose weight
thank you for your advice it was exactly what I needed
you are good at what you do
did you know you are a great parent
you are a friend I cherish
that book you recommended, was awesome
you are really thoughtful
thank you for being here and doing what you promised
Most of those are things that you work at…you think about them and you try to be thoughtful about what you do and how to accomplish things. But, when someone says that you smell good, there are probably just a few things that you can do…if you don’t wear perfume but you bathe on a regular basis after that there is a lot that is out of your control. Take the compliment and smile… now, go say it to someone else. They will love it.
