It smells like miracle...

This blog started in my head almost 6 months ago. I promised myself to buy the website in time for publishing it before 2010. Than my boyfriend let me know that it is for free... anyways, I have a few hours before the new year comes, I am happy to have kept my promise!

The blog title represents my addiction to smells, odours, scents, fragrances and perfumes of every kind. I smell, therefore I am. Few months back, I have taken my friend and perfumer colleague to the lake of Saint Cassien near the French Riviera. On the way back home, I bought a few apricots from a local producer. When tasting it, my friend said " it tastes like miracle!" - they were indeed marvellous!
But apart from the great taste, I couldn't stop thinking " it smells like miracle!" - I will never forget the sweet sticky aroma coming from the fruit going to my nose, through my veins, finally bursting out in a multiple olfactive orgasm in a deep corner of my brain, that I actually physically felt in that moment.

Ever since, if I smell something that gives me the same reaction, I repeat that sentence silently to myself: "It smells like miracle!"
