as the lilacs bloom

one of my favorite moments each spring hit this week - the blooming of the lilacs. their flowers do not last very long, but delightfully fondle the senses. strange to me that i cannot stand the scent of lilac in anything else - neither lotions nor old ladies wear it well.

  1. Funny, cuz I too don't like lilac product smell either....in fact, I'm not crazy about those flowers in my house. I prefer them wafting outdoors, awakening my olfactory and brightening my day.

    But i just bought a shower gel the other day. Guess what scent it was. But it doesn't actually smell like it.
