Examiner
Do you use perfume in your daily life?
Candidate
Yes, I wear different scents in different occasions. For example, if I go to work, I'll wear a more woody scent in order to create a more professional image and more calm vibe. If I'm going out with my friends, I'll wear a more furry scent so that it.
Examiner
Will you buy perfume as a gift?

Not really because I know everyone has their own taste about perfume and smell and it is very personal. So to avoid gifting someone the gift they don't want or present they don't want, I don't buy perfume as a gift.

It depends, if you used to have a perfume when you are out for work or going out with friends or going out with on a date then I don't think buying a perfume would be an expensive things to do because that's what you do daily.

× my collection has come to I think around 40 bottles and they are full of different types of scents
✓ my collection has come to, I think, around 40 bottles and it is full of different types of scents
The subject 'collection' is singular, so the verb and pronoun referring to it should also be singular. 'They are' is incorrect because it refers to 'collection' which is singular; it should be 'it is'. Also, a comma is needed after 'come to' and 'I think' to improve clarity.
× I wear different scents in different occasions
✓ I wear different scents on different occasions
The correct preposition to use with 'occasions' is 'on', not 'in'. This is a common prepositional error affecting the meaning and naturalness of the sentence.
× I'll wear a more furry scent so that it.
✓ I'll wear a more furry scent so that it suits the occasion
The sentence is incomplete and 'furry' is not an appropriate adjective for scent. Possibly 'fruity' or 'floral' was intended. Also, the phrase 'so that it' is incomplete and needs an object or verb to complete the meaning.
× I don't buy perfume as a gift.
✓ I don't buy perfumes as gifts.
When speaking generally about items in plural, 'perfumes' and 'gifts' should be plural to match the general sense. Using singular 'perfume' and 'gift' here is less natural and can cause ambiguity.
× I don't think buying a perfume would be an expensive things to do
✓ I don't think buying a perfume would be an expensive thing to do
The word 'things' is plural but refers to a singular action 'buying a perfume'. Therefore, it should be 'thing' to agree in number with the singular action.
