Description
Grasse in May smells like nowhere else on earth. The fields around the old perfume town turn pink with roses, and before dawn the pickers move slowly between the rows, filling sacks with petals while the dew is still on them. By midday the air is so thick with scent that visitors stop on the road and simply breathe, astonished that a whole landscape can be so fragrant. In the old distilleries, copper stills glow in the half-light as the petals give up their essence, drop by precious drop.
This box borrows that perfumed romance. Decorated with delicate pink florals, it comes with two little perfume bottles, a charming pair to arrange on a mirrored tray or tuck inside. It is lovely on a dressing table among real scents and powder, as a gift for a bride, a birthday, or a friend who has a signature fragrance she has worn for twenty years. Mothers and daughters might each keep one bottle as a sentimental token. Set beside a window, the pink blooms seem to deepen in the afternoon light.
