I BUMPED INTO HER IN THE PARIS METRO. HER EYES WERE CAPTIVATING BLUE AND HER VOICE WAS DEEP YET SOFT, LIKE A PURRING CAT. SHE WORE A RED VELVET DRESS AND SMELLED LIKE THE MOST BEAUTIFUL SANDALWOOD. SHE DIDN´T SAY MUCH AT THE TIME, BUT SHE SMILED AT ME AND WHISPERED “VIVRE” AND WE BOTH UNDERSTOOD. WE TOUCHED EACH OTHERS HANDS BRIEFLY AND THEN SHE LEFT. IT WAS LIKE I HAD NEVER MET HER, YET IT WAS ONE OF THE MOST INTENSE MOMENTS OF MY LIFE.

TOP NOTES OF VIOLET AND MAGNOLIA PERFECTLY BALANCED WITH A SANDALWOOD BASE MAKE THIS, AS THE NAMES STATE, A SANTAL BEAUTY.
