Champaca Absolute


Purchasing perfume has become an average event for the average person.
Today, you can walk in to a drug store to grab some gum and "perfume."

As a child, I remember my mother having a distinct scent.. it was Guerlain's Samsara.
I knew when my mother was present.
It was comforting.

Perfume was never meant to be cheap or to be used excessively.

I personally only have two.
Guerlain's Samsara & Tom Ford's Champaca Absolute.

It's not because I can't go out and purchase more.. or that I can't go out an purchase $20 scents.
But it's because I want to stay true to the tradition of perfume.
And I wish to have the same scent recognition with my family as my mother did with us.
