Natural Perfumery as a tribute

January 30, 2009

I have made a perfume for my Mom as a tribute to her and her strength in fighting the cancer that is in her.

I have a perfume in my mind for my Grandma.

And now another perfumer has inspired me to try my hand at a perfume as a tribute to Grandpa too.    As soon as I get that 25th hour in a day, I'll have it done - LOL

Most of my fondest memories are from the times I spent with my Grandparents.    I remember them fondly often and it helps me to get through each day.
