I can see that describing a fragrance would be a challenge, but the old standard songs, ballads especially, are wonderfully evocative.Leigh Rikerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10154211056513626383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5049293050471832760.post-44090335643545602952007-07-18T08:25:00.000-07:002007-07-18T08:25:00.000-07:00I agree, Joan.

I do, however, like to listen to music in the car.Leigh Rikerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10154211056513626383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5049293050471832760.post-34824985837566260552007-07-18T08:23:00.000-07:002007-07-18T08:23:00.000-07:00Hank, thanks so much for the lyrics to Judy Collin...Hank, thanks so much for the lyrics to Judy Collins' song. Says it perfectly. And sounds familiar to me, although I can't place the melody. I must look it up!

The fact that they're buying without smelling first means it's a challenge to grab their interest. Sometimes my fragrance names work, and sometimes they totally bomb. <BR/><BR/>I've been successful with using certain song titles -- "The Very Thought Of You" and "Fly Me To The Moon" are two that come to mind. A friend just suggested another song title that I'm definitely going to use for an upcoming sweet scent. <BR/><BR/>We find what works, don't we? :>]<BR/><BR/>~Lindyaromagikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05132005495312697289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5049293050471832760.post-89416280682147016482007-07-06T05:14:00.000-07:002007-07-06T05:14:00.000-07:00I like music when working around the house, riding...I like music when working around the house, riding in the car, and when on the computer.

I can't set down and read a book with music, but then again I can't stand going somewhere in a car without music.Virginiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06924888528166831610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5049293050471832760.post-20643146788330127772007-07-04T12:43:00.000-07:002007-07-04T12:43:00.000-07:00Hi Leigh:Wonderful post.
