HINDU HONEYSUCKLE
The Sweet Smell of an Old-Time Flower & Memory

    HINDU HONEYSUCKLE by Providence Perfume Company reminded me of a garden I visited when I was in the seventh grade. I remember it was a rainy day and the field trip to the farm was almost cancelled due to the weather, but it wasn't because the forecast was for a sunny day later on in the afternoon.

   My thought was that the firm would be full of cows, sheeps and other typical farm animals but to my surprise it was sprawling acres of colorful and scenic land full of flowers and many scents.

   Honestly, I thought I went to heaven but as I strolled through the the dreamy farmland, there was one particular scent that stood out. I smelled it every where I turned...it was not get away from me. I had to find out what it was named.

Quietly, I walked up to one of the assistance and explained to her my experience with this incredible humble and sacred scent.

The lady beamed with a smile and said it is honeysuckle. I repeated the name to myself, honeysuckle, honeysuckle over and over. The honeysuckle plant and I became kindred spirits throughout my visit to this farm.

I was so pleased to encounter HINDU HONEYSUCKLE because of the memories I have with it, but with HINDU HONEYSUCKLE, there is a pleasant overall sweetness that coexist with honeysuckle and that is Indian Jasmine Sambac.

The Indian Jasmine Sambac is grown and distilled in East India and for its decorative purposes, the women in South India dress their hair with this white flower for ceremonial reasons. While its medicinal ways have been known to cure such causes as depression, anger, calm and relax the nervous system. For the use of pleasure its purposes are to arouse the intellect as well as the craving for lust.

HINDU HONEYSUCKLE is a soft sweet aroma of ancient worlds from the Far East that blends cultures and flowers with a sentiment that quietly evolves and stays on the skin for several hours.

I love how thoughtful, Charna Ethier was to express and compose a scent that caters to ancient flowers that are so deep in cultures which are still being used in today's society for ancestral dedications.

To me it clearly states that Ms. Ethier understands that not only combining fragrances but staying true to customs in diplomatic ways that provides a peaceful calming affect not only to our minds but for the world.

Notes: Indian Jasmine Sambac, Green Vertivert, Musk, Ambrette, Rose, Coriander, Bergamot and Honeysuckle
