A Relaxing Abduction
A sluggish, stale afternoon. The rain has washed away any energy. Not a rain that brings life, that scents the air and sweeps away only the trivial. A cowardly rain that does not speak, but has washed the contours of existence into a pale outline of lethargy. On such an afternoon, our dear protagonist finds himself, portrayed more positively out of sympathy for himself than dancing in an unsympathetic manner, trapped. As he, melancholic and resigned, wishes to bid farewell to the day with the fifth chime of the bell, a small branch, broken from a nearby tree, jolts him from his half-sleep. He opens the window, and a young green sprout jumps in. The young green sprout, seemingly an escaped Numro from Nimrod, excitedly rushes through the room, enchanting our protagonist with its forest magic, and pulls him into another world. The house and the streets disappear into the mists that escape the leaden ground after the downright unexciting rain. The lethargic wetness gives way to lush grass and softly glowing chamomile, and Numro and I roll through damp lavender, which the cozy humidity has taken the dry herbaceousness from. We lie on our backs, looking up at the sky, and see the agruminal aura of the gentle sun flashing through the clouds, while aromatic droplets from the sage's garment trickle into our mouths. As we continue to tumble down the meadow, the grasses become stronger and more robust, less caressed by the stems of flowers than interrupted by the trunks of mossy trees. When we crash against the trunks with hollow heads, they burst open and release a torrent of golden, sweet resins that flow into our bodies like an electrifying current, and the invigorating richness of the ethers galbanizes our skin. The trunks have also taken some scratches, and we scramble up, only to sink back into the soft green bed of the forest, falling asleep with tangled limbs in the smoky mist of the twilight forest. Our lovable protagonist will surely wake up happy the next morning, even if his friend Numro was just a product of foreign fantasies, and indulge in coffee, beautiful comment replies, verdigris, and other chemicals for breakfast.

With heartfelt thanks to Susan for the relaxing abduction. My first encounter with a thoroughly green scent, and it will not be the last - magnificent.

Please understand the comment more as an inspired compliment and not as imitation. Therefore, reading the first comment on Verdigris is recommended!

Munro Discovers a World
Munro had hidden in verdigris and discovered a world. He felt unwell and rainy and had encountered other beings in the corridor, so he saw no other way at that moment, buried his face in the green coating of this artwork, which coolly wandered through the misunderstanding of the corridor and whose name was written on a little sign: Verdigris.
Here was a world full of fine threads, sparkling bright Hesperides woven with warm-spicy rosemary. Above, ethereal mists billowed from herb-fresh sage and luminous lavender, chamomile lanterns shining as weightlessly as luminescent magic on glowing galbanum camphor. Inside, Munro soon saw a wild meadow of creaky grasses, where now and then the flower roots quietly waved shiny banners like silver tails, and clouds of incense poured lemons while resins flowed like earthy streams with tiny sweet crystals.
Hours later, Munro saw soap bubbles floating over the vast lavender meadow; it had become warmer now, softer and cozy, like moss. No, he would not take his face out of the verdigris anymore; he didn't care how it looked to the other beings, his head in the artwork. Verdigris was his world.

Decayed, venerable fougère with strong herbal and woody notes. A wonderful natural collage with a few citrus splashes.

Bitter-spicy at the start. Bergamot dressed in a galbanum coat decorated with rosemary. Lavender, angelica root, and sage create...

Natural barbershop/fougere. Nothing more, but also nothing less. The sweet resinous note combined with the soapy lavender clashes.

Could be pine needle bubble bath.
But this fougère
With its amazing galbanum-tonka depth
Pulls me deep into the
mossy forest.
