I have never been to Florence, Italy but I now feel I should – watching Samantha Brown’s “Passport to Great Weekend” can have that effect on you. :-) If the cafes and markets selling local produce aren’t enough of a reason, there is this person who prepares a perfume that is solely based on you – and hence not possessed by anyone else in the world. Amazing, isn’t it?

I wonder how this person will prepare a perfume for me if I were to visit his shop in Florence. Let’s see – a whiff of fresh cool morning mountain breeze, a dash of fragrant jasmine flowers, hint of the earth as the season’s first raindrops patter on it, a trace of sandalwood and a dab of golden honey. Perfect! :-)
