Purring in fur
An old cupboard opens to a quick blast of a furry cedar mothball like clean camphor and some almond paste sweeties granny had in there. Now curiously a hint of sweet white floral gardenia starts teasing my nose. Is it sweeties or is it flowers? Old amber and spices like a mysterious eastern gift add their air of intrigue. Then it is incense and sugar with woods and spices. A civet has been in this box too. The flowers are here but old and pressed. They are quite dry. A warm animals belly here like a kittens tummy. No one smell is winning over the next. It needs sniffing again and again to unravel this spicy, heliotrope, dried floral, pastry, animalic, musty, furry, amber, woodsy wonderful mystery of a perfume. Lovely and fascinating. I need to do this all over again.
