Ray of light - chasing castles in the sky
“Only the children know what they are looking for.”
― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince
Sometimes I wish I could feel like a child for just one day…to feel the sun once again, the sea water for the first time. To hear that strange music coming out of that black box that forces us to move… and the safety of our mother's lap, inexplicably natural. Feeling new things are scary, but it is somehow natural, and that what we find strange, can sometimes be mysterious without having any mystery whatsoever. Ignorance is bliss.
Sometimes there are days when we don't want to complicate, when our minds are already doing so many knots that we find ourselves without patience to ruminate our problems. All we need is fresh air and life and sun. We wish we could to go back to our children games and play in the light of cloudless days. Because sometimes we don't even know why or what we're looking for...and that is one of the punishments of “growing up”. The constant turmoil of searching for things we don't even know for sure what… There are no more answers than before, there are only fewer castles in the clouds…But today I accidentally found a ray of light.
There's Iris everywhere, covering a rose that seems shy at first, but that opens afterwards with the effervescent help of the bright aldehydes. It is then followed by a calm musk that welcomes a sweet, spicy and fruity drydown – very dusty – subtle yet present, smooth but noticeable.
In terms of performance I find it satisfying, 2 hours projecting, lingering 6 hours on skin…more than enough.
But the most important thing is not the scent or even the performance itself, the most important thing is what makes us feel ... or rather, what it makes me feel.
Today I was a child again and I tried to escape my shadow ...
