I think I would know Nora's fart anywhere. I think I could pick hers out in a roomful of farting women.
A good fragrance should have a certain personality that makes people identify the scent with you.
The Chanel woman? I don't even need to see; I smell her from round the corner.
She smelled like herself, like the wind through a tree.
I knew I was in England by the smell.
Fragrance, to me, is a scent that you can call your own, have other people identify you with, and also express the vibes that you're feeling that day.
The fun thing about scent is that it's unique to everyone; pheromones take on a new scent.
And the smell of the library was always the same - the musty odour of old clothes mixed with the keener scent of unwashed bodies, creating what the chief librarian had once described as 'the steam of the social soup.'
Because each book has its own special perfume.
A scent that disturbs me and delights me. It smells like ripe pears, vetiver, a bit of violet and something else- something spicy almost biting and exotic.
