The soft morning light,
grass, water, flowers, and earth -
the scent of summer.
Michigan puts us through some rough winters, but spring and summer can be angelic. There is nothing like the balmy smell of a beautiful summer day coming your way - it sweetens the morning commute.

Perfume du jour: Carnation (Mona di Orio)
Named not after the flower but the bloom on a maiden's cheek (the French word carnation), this deliciously creamy and mildly spicy Floriental has top notes of bergamot, clove and geranium; middle notes of ylang ylang, violet, jasmine and precious woods; and base notes of musk, amber and styrax.
I am an unabashed perfume junkie who has just realized that her perfume decant stash is off the charts. New plan - perfume sample a day until I get down to the French's girl's number - one scent for day, one for night. We'll see how this goes. This is a lovely blend - a rich floral, but not cloying. Happy time!
