“Tu Perfume” captures that messy moment right after a breakup when you think you are ready to move on, yet everything keeps pointing back to the person you lost. KAROL G scrolls through her ex’s profile, realizes every memory has been deleted, and decides to party with someone new. The plan backfires: the stranger is wearing the exact same scent as her ex. No matter how much she drinks or smokes, the smell drags her into a flood of memories, proving that a single fragrance can reopen every wound.
Wrapped in playful reggaetón slang, shout-outs to her own songs (“Mercurio”) and friends’ advice (“mañana será bonito”), the lyrics swing between confidence and vulnerability. KAROL G admits she “damaged the friendship for something more” and now feels stuck in heartbreak limbo — partying, traveling, pretending she is fine, yet secretly hoping the ex is thinking of her too. The track turns a bittersweet confession into an anthem that reminds us how powerful our senses are and how hard it can be to erase real love.
