beach talk in three parts

to a perfume i have never smelled...

(and to have such good taste that even one's distaste is impeccable...)

'the blue hour is famous for its romantic connotations, particularly in the arts. a colloquial french saying characterises the blue hour as a time of confusion and mystery, since it is impossible to determine whether it is really night or day. and they changed ruby's cover, but not during this blue hour... as a result of the perceived specialness of this time, there are various restaurants, theaters and hotels called l'heure bleue, located worldwide. there is also a women's perfume by (1912) of the same name.'

do you remember?

we talk about this often. (do you remember the story she told about the funeral?)

i heard this story once. at the wake people were milling about the house. the story teller sat in a chair facing the corridor. she could see how the funeral goers were avoiding bumping into the figure standing still in the middle of the passage way. and they were not aware of doing so. but she saw them swerve while the figure of the woman stood unmoving in the middle. and everyone swerved past.

now. can you quite believe that?

l'heure bleue or 'the bluish hour' was created in 1912. the fragrance is velvety soft and romantic, it is a fragrance of bluish dusk and anticipation of night, before the first stars appear in the sky. the top notes are opening with spicy-sweet aniseed and fresh bergamot that gently lead to the heart of rose, carnation, tuberose, violet, and neroli. the soft and powdery floral notes are resting on a base of vanilla, tonka bean, iris and benzoin. the perfume is mysterious, elegant and timeless. it was created by raymond guerlain. the bottle is shaped like the one of mitsouko and the stopper is shaped like a hollow heart that alludes to romantic pre-war years.

i so want this.
