You, on the powdered sugar beach
I walk along the beach. It is beautiful. White, fine sand. The feeling of tiny grains flowing around my feet. So soft, so gentle.
That's when I see them. From a distance. A woman, young, but at the same time standing, almost ageless. White silk covers her body, contrasted by her flowing brown hair. Her elegant, graceful figure.
I move towards her; it's hard not to succumb to her fascination immediately.
I am with her, the gentle sound of the waves covers our words, which are like a whisper. Bright blue eyes penetrate me. I smell sweetness, drowning out all my senses. Memories of candy floss from my childhood come flooding back. I had no idea that sweets could be so stylish.
The sweetness takes center stage, framed by a light rose-jasmine floral note.
It radiates the fragrance and is not only perceptible at close range. it would radiate this fragrance so intensely for 2½ hours, after 6½ hours it would be gone.
As beautiful and stylish as it all may be, I realize it's not for me. I like sweetness, but this is too much for me. I open my eyes, it's gone, the white, heavenly beach is gone, I'm back in the less dreamlike reality and look at the bottle. Very classy, very solid. Just like its interior.
But it doesn't suit me. Nor does it suit the woman I love. I put the bottle back on the shelf and go my way.
