The air in the closed room was full of heavy smells: soap, face powder, the pungent smell of an "Eau de Colognes". A delicate amber fragrance that brings back the charm of bygone times in an accord of "rice powder" combined with rose petals, the everlasting sensuality of monoi oil with vanilla beans.
