Ah, I have a visit to Enfleurage on my wish list, and you only serve to reinforce my yearnings. Thank you for sharing your experience…it was a delightful vicarious pleasure.

Thanks Susan, and thanks for reading. NYC was great and as you know I thought of you in Barney’s and what fun we would have had there together! (and what trouble we would have gotten ourselves into )

Your description of this experience nearly brought tears to my eyes too, Trish. Once again I’m blown away by how beautifully you write. I’m going to have to read it again now. : )

Lucy,

The sambac concrete is indeed very beautiful. It doesn’t move me in quite the same way as the tuberose or the gardenia butters, but I love your description of its smoothness and coolness….so true. It also has amazing longevity as opposed to the the butters which are more ephemeral.

And yes, Aedes was certainly a treat!

Dear T,

I was thinking of Enfleurage and the been wearing the jasmine sambac ever since. What a find! I have never had such a smooth and subtle jasmine with so much coolness to it.

So lovely to try things on with you there! Aedes was fun too…

Flora,

The purity is heartbreaking isn’t it? Gets you right in your gut and rational thought goes out the window. Love it!

Okay, I am now officially VERY envious!

That tuberose butter sounds so amazing – it must be something like what happened to me when I tried Caron’s Tubereuse, so pure and lovely.

Thanks Roxana! How fabulous that you have the Oman frankincense as well. Isn’t it soothing and exhilarating at the same time? It is pure heaven

Anya,

We have a glory bower in our front yard too, but I’m not sure if it’s the same as a rose glory bower.

Anyway, love that Trygve has such a wonderful selection of enfleurage essences, what a fabulous boutique she has!
