So many bottles
All sizes and shapes
I'm walking for hours
All around me I gaze
Dolce & Gabbana,
Jean Paul Gaultier,
Apollo, Aristo,
Maybe Guerlain?
Intoxicated already
Confused by the names
I'm getting a headache
From another fragrance...
I'm not giving up
To find it I came
In fantasies temple
Your heavenly smell...
To arrouse no suspicion
I didn't ask
What cologne you're using?
What's the name of the flask?
You belong to another
I don't have the right
So discretely I wander,
But later tonight...
To feel your subtle
Presence in my room
I'll buy me a bottle
Of your favourite perfume.

Something to lift up the mood... Or something...

Oh, great thought. I have always had a very strong connection with the fragrance a man wears, and years later it can bring me right back to that space with him. What a fun idea.

Words are things, and a small drop of ink, falling, like dew, upon a thought produces that which makes thousands, perhaps millions think.

I scents this is a great poem, but don't nose why.
Be well

"It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures;
but it is the loss that shapes the image,
gathers the flowers weaves the garland."-
