Nostalgia
A juxtaposition. It starts a bright scent with grapefruit and the floral softness of jasmine, then takes you on a journey with notes of peppermint and anise, before grounding you in palo santo and Haitian vetiver. Minimal and intoxicating all at once.

I VENTURED BEYOND THE BONFIRE, MY STEPS SLOWING AS I TOOK IN EVERYTHING AROUND ME.
“HELLO,” I CALLED OUT. “HELLO!” I SAID AGAIN, LOUDER THIS TIME.
I PAUSED, KICKED OFF MY SHOES AND APPROACHED THE WATER. ALLOWING MYSELF TO DRIFT BACK, I CLOSED MY EYES AND TILTED MY FACE TO THE SUN TO SOAK IN THE LAST OF ITS RAYS.
AS I FLOATED, LIGHT DANCED ACROSS MY EYELIDS AND I WAS TRANSPORTED SOMEWHERE BETWEEN A MEMORY AND A DREAM. GREETED BY THE DISTANT ECHOING HELLOS,
I LET THE SCENT OF THE CEDAR TREES MINGLE WITH THE BOURBON THAT STILL TINGLED ON MY LIPS. I SMILED, ALLOWING MYSELF TO SINK DEEPER INTO THE BLISS.
