Musc & Jasmin 50ml

"Jasmine has a strong hold on me, one that stems from my childhood. In the mornings, during summer holidays, I would accompany my grandmother who went to "pick the Flower," an expression that referred to Jasmine. These were terraced gardens where men were absent. Women picked, chatted, laughed, and seemed to enjoy being together while their children ran around. The youngest ones picked with bare arms. Their skin, golden from the sun's caress, seemed soft to me; drops of sweat beaded from their faces down to the low-cut neckline of their white blouses, revealing the roundness of their breasts as they bent over the flower-laden bushes. On the ground, the baskets filled up. I didn't dare look at them, or only distractedly, on the fly. The musk of their sweat and the narcotic floral scent of Jasmine intertwined and disturbed me."
