The three sisters..blue lotus, parijata and keora attar..and a Bulgarian rose otto... in the background, some of my custom blends in my perfume box..formulations from many moons ago..each one a sealed memory..a lusty dream..a secret sadness..each one of them bottled and hidden in a box..lest I forget them...

I have been doing some perfume blending today...haven’t done it in a long time and I dragged out old notes and formulas...this one is an ancient Egyptian perfume with a blue lotus...and myrrh and rose and cinnamon. I had a whiff of it in Egypt and bought a super expensive blue lotus attar from India eventually ...which means it’s base note was a woodsy sandalwood..and it’s not a pure blue lotus ..I think of it and it still makes me want to swoon...i can only retrieve a vague sense memory of the blue lotus...I tried sniffing the attar now and all that remains is the sandalwood with a hint of something. Don’t know if I want to spend money on a blue lotus absolute (well..it’s the beginning of the farm year afterall..)...maybe one day..soon..

Throwback Thursday to the time I was in Egypt...looking for some photos for an article I am writing but couldn’t find the appropriate one...but found some others that brought out all the feels..

I hear you. I would have likely done the same. This is why I shouldn’t be allowed to procreate.
