One of my most vivid memories is the smell of my mother's pillow. Her "essence" was comforting...I knew she was near and that was enough. Now that she is gone and I cannot ask to be wrapped in her arms, when I miss her the most I remember the smell of her pillow and am comforted. I wonder if my son thinks the same of my pillow....
the name for your new book !
"THE GIFT of a SCENT"
just a thought :)
What a great concept for a book! Scents and Scents-abilities? :)
What a cool idea for a book! I can't wait to read it:)
I *love* the name Daphne!! It see ms to fit so perfectly for a "nose" :)
Whenever I smell the cologne my husband used to wear, it takes me right back to the moment I met him when I was 15! I actually have an empty bottle of it somewhere around here. lol
My grandparents house always had a certain scent, and when they came to visit us, it seemed our house would take on that same scent. It bothered me that our house wasn't "faithful" enough to retain its own scent when they came.
I have more of an association with bad scents. Chemo and hospital stays have really messed with my nose and mind. I can't smell latex or saline (yes, it has a smell!) without getting sick to my stomach!
Crystal, I hear you. I can think of some awful hospital smells too. Those never go away!!! Great suggestions on the names. They've already turned down Scents & Sensibilities. I do love that name, but I get it.
what about for the title "FRAGRANCE"
The Essence of Regret
I can't wait for this book!!!!
It's so interesting to were inspired by Shania Twain. I love her show on OWN and like her in general. But I was watching it the other day & read your blog during a commercial only to think "Kristin billerbeck would really like her story & show"!! Her story is amazing
OOh The Essence of Regret; a smell I know well. LOL Jel, I like Fragrance too! Right now they're going with "Violet in Bloom" It will grow on me, I'm still so attached to Daphne as a name.
Tonya, I get scared when people tell me that. Like THIS one will never be right. Don't make me nervous! LOL
I bought a specific cologne that I really liked for my fiance. He wore it often. We never married and I never knew anyone else who wore it. Sometime this past year (about 15 years after the "break-up") I walked past someone who must have been wearing it because it stopped me in my tracks, taking my mind back to my fiance. I had to actually turn around to see who it was. Funny how smells really do hang on in our memories for so long.
