Of pink elephants

In psychology, there is a thought experiment in which the patient is asked not to think of a pink elephant. If you try it, you'll soon notice that you can't get rid of the pink elephant anymore.
The thoughts cramp up and the more you try, the bigger the elephant gets.
Completely letting go of the efforts is then the only solution.

A special case are pink elephants in the scent memory, as I have noticed, in my experience you can't get rid of them at all.
I got the first one after reading Apicus' commentary on the Iris & White Musk. I've rarely gotten rid of the carrot association with the iris since. I sold my bottle of Jo Malone immediately, the fragrance impression was no longer to save.

My association with organic fragrances is a tea shop from the 80s. Besides tea there were also writing utensils, beautifully decorated stationery, noble diaries and probably also scented oils. I think, the fragrance connection consists of sandalwood and patchouli, otherwise I cannot explain it to myself that with almost every tested bio fragrance this tea shop appears in front of my inner eye.

So it was again the case when testing the great hiking pack of fluxite.
Vanilla& the Sea smells like fruit tea for me in the sum plus time travel in said tea shop.
In the statements I read about sea, amber and tropical fruits. So the fragrance seems to have left a more differentiated impression on other perfumos.

As much as I would like to like organic fragrances, there is a lot to be said for them, I don't want to smell like tea shops.
That's why there won't be anything more with the organic fragrances and me, at least not in this fragrance life.
