Working in Manhattan - Initial Impressions

Forget aromatherapy, because this goes way beyond that: there are some fragrance oils that unleash waves of emotions in me, and this is in large part how I identify them. Lime, grapefruit, wormwood oil...they all make me deleriously happy in slightly nuanced ways. I love that in some languages, the verb "to smell" is the same as the verb "to feel," because sometimes I can't tell the difference. I'm not exactly sure how I smell musk, but I know when it's there, because I feel it.

I love my job.

Lauren,

Where did you attend school in France? I'm certified in Aromatherapy and am also an amateur perfumer - learned from Library books.

Ciao,
Carol
