She bathes in beauty
Like the blossoms of flowers
Her scent lingers
Like her enchanting smile.
Never close enough to touch
Just near enough to breathe in
Her intoxicating aroma
It fills men’s hearts with desire
And drive their minds mad
With longing.
A woman’s scent is delicate and sweet
Designed to lure and dazzle
Much like the loveliness
Of her lustrous figure and face.
No two women share the same fragrance
Each feminine scent is unique as it is exquisite
Much like their colourful personalities
When was the last time you got hit by such a whiff?
