perfumes - quotes and descriptions to inspire creative writing

The perfumes in the apothecary held the old world medicinal charm, the soothing aromas to quiet the soul and let the healing begin.

In those perfumes were the aromas of a million floral blooms, or at least that is how my imagination pictured them. I saw their vibrant hues in the most gleeful of wayward breezes, dancing, giving of their fragrance to the advanced summer air.

It was a perfume of the sea air, perhaps some would place it as more of a cologne; yet to me the ocean is mother and when I bathed in that fresh aroma I became a bird on lofty breeze, carried over any cliff with ease.

It was a perfume of the summertime, of warm days and warm spices. I could have settled into its fragrance as willingly as the cat curls up in sunny rays.
