Some people don´t want to perceive their sense of smell all life long. Others affirm that they do like just natural odours and nothing artifical, less perfumes. Nevertheless, our nose is one of the most important sense organs. Scents shave us much more than we would like to confess. Memories themselves are influenced by fragrances, positive or negative. They are awoken through scents we smell or remember. There are many scientific disourses about our despised but so important organ of perception. Anyway, one thing is shure, the strengh and impact of scents was a long period totally underrated. Slowley we grope the effective dimension of the influence of odours in our lifes and to our reactions. Remarkable is, like with other syndroms, that we humans, in the ancient world, already have been understanding and using this knowledge. Then it was lost through ignorant worldviews, and now its a hard work to collect every little module again. The one who gives fragrances a change will learn about himself, the others and life.
Most people like to use perfume, even not always. They love flowerscents in the garden, know one or the other perfume by name and have their favorite fragrance. For the rest they do follow much different interests.
But some humans are pretty wild about fragrances ( I am one of this kind, so I know what we are talking about). Some of them have leased the passion from the beginning on, others find it during their life. This doesn´t mean that one loves all scents. There are even for us ugly, worse and bad scents. We just don´t limitate our noses too much. We sniff everything and try to anylise and catagolise it. Then we give it a place in our categories. Mostly fragrances are acepted and put to our scentcatalouge, but never will go there to the top favorites. We can be enchanted by a little flower that scents us, while walking by. But entrancement we feel in the world of perfumes. This possibility to live fragrances, smell essences, to wrap oneself in perfume is unique, heavenly and means to us the same as to find a hidden quintessence. Also from great importance to us is the fact, that we, ourselves want to smell well, like the flowers in the garden, or however you want to name it. There are so many possibilities, so many perfumes. Most of us do just buy, collect and essentialy use them. Package and flacons are not at all important ( therefore exist others fanatics). We consider the contant as relevant. This magic, devine scented fluids, that imbrue our senses with felicity. This is real passion, not to be able to forget it or to leave it at a certain point, to want more. Some of you will call it now simply addiction. This borders, for beeing honest, are difficult to draw. But there is more behind a passion as simply a overreaching sentiment. It is an impulse that gives joy, pushes ideas and helps through difficulties. And sincerce again, what would be life without passion?
Now nobody will be amazed that in our rows of perfumelovers there are also many perfumers, or such, searching the way to be one. This deep desire to find out from what this knowlegde contains often also grows the wish to create a perfume. You dive into the secret of a Fragrance, the soal of a perfume, the core of an essence. Such a perfumecreation needs lot of time, interest and practice. Therefore even passion is put to an acid proof. You have to study hard before getting along with your experiments somehow. Noone will become easily a master, this again is part of a very powerful emotion. That musn´t be understood by everybody. Anyway its interesting what such a little phrase, often spoken beside, can contain and hide.
I love perfumes
We are starting to intuit this matter
