My nose is my eyes, my nose is my hands, and my nose is my ears! I never see my beloved until I breathe in his aroma… I can never touch and feel my beloved if I do not gasp his aroma, I can never hear what he says unless his scent speaks to my soul! That personal distinctive scent has to yield for me!
Lina Hanna Hanna
An eternity spent with someone I love would not generate that bond that a split second creates when smelling that magical fragrance of the person we love when we are close to him; yet even if life separates us from our loved ones, their perfume will always lingers, it is present even after their absence, we can trace them through their odor…
Our memory is the container of all the perfumes that stick in mind and influence our ways and sways! How often do we feel nostalgic to a childhood memory when we smell an aroma that reconnects us with the child in us? How often do we feel the presence of someone dear at the strike of his cologne on anyone else?
When we say “it smells like heaven” don’t we define an aromatic paradise? All the beauty that surrounds us is delightful, but none as powerful and compelling as an enchanting scent! It covers our senses in a rush of sweet mist, rousing our sensation and tanning our feelings.
These pulses of fragrance that come and go out of the blue, these airy waves that the wind pass on to us from a far off distance, distress me like engaging melody. For many of us, the scent of certain plants or fabrics can restore memories with such an intensity that nothing else can come to, for the sense of smell can be amazingly evocative, bringing back sharp images, and traces of a long gone lover. Fragrances are our time traveling machines, they can transports us across, back and forth in time to where and who we wish to be with again, or visit in our own imagination.
Each fragrance, whether sugary or peppery, light or heavy, approaches you in its own line of attack and evokes its own expressive reaction. Smelling is the most valuable sense we can ever be thankful for. It is our sensor through which we detect and collect our emotions and interactions with others.
It allows us to manipulate our brainpower; it is the portal to the core of our verve, our soul and it is the key to reminisce on those evaded moments we crave to capture again. If you want to decode the mysteries of the existence just smell the fragrances around you so you can reveal all the enigmas of your soul and expose all the cords of your heart so it may be accessible to cross over!
Inhale and you will prevail.
