Towards the Light

Rocky black earth still swallows the bitter scream. The night does not want to give up, murmurs sleepily. But something pushes and pushes, wants to go outside, wants to unfold, breaks layer by layer, tirelessly striving towards the light. Tiny leaf tips emerge, turning a delicate green as soon as the sun touches them. It grows and becomes stronger, blissfully soaking up every drop of dew, finally blooming completely in self-forgetful splendor. Faces draw near, voices whisper softly, moving away with a relaxed step...

Every year, the first signs of spring are a wonder for me.
The garden of my childhood had a crocus meadow. There was nothing more beautiful!
The scent itself is woody, warm, slightly smoky with wonderfully delicate, very subtle floral hints.
Thanks to Floyd for the opportunity to test this special fragrance!

When the flowers bloom and the buds open... That's already why I love spring... The scent sounds very lovely and fitting for it!

You master of the short long form :) This is wonderfully and beautifully expressed, and I'm even more excited to test this one now; it's already stirring in the sample jar and wants to see the light.

There's a meadow in the city park near us that turns into a sea of pink crocuses for a short time every spring. The scent sounds enticing.

I have a tear in the corner of my eye. These delicate little bulb flowers, which know nothing but optimism and defy cold and darkness, touch me just as much as your words.
