Aftershaves and Perfumes

I am someone who likes a nice smell To those who know me This I will tell I find it exciting To be caught by surprise By a beautiful scent It can mesmerize Not all scents are great Some you will hate That is life No need for debate Aftershaves and perfumes Developed to allure They appeal to our sense of smell And leave us wanting more They draw us in Excite and awaken Tease and please That is their expertise What do you like Spicy or sweet Musky or floral Depending on your views You will choose Either way Remember each day No harm in a little spray

Hi Pixie, Thanks for your compliment, much appreciated. Yes scents can bring us back to people places in an instant. Have a look at my poem Obsession, this is my experience of what you have just said. Thanks again. Frances
