Paradise Tennant: I have a little rose arbour someone keeps beautifully on an old church grounds .. like a little tuscanny.. it gets so lush you cannot tell you are in the city .. much less downtown city :)
stevenaia Michinaga: I see it as candy store for the senses
stevenaia Michinaga: color, smells, sounds
Korel Laloix: I do like those kind of sensory overloads.
Calvino Rabeni: The different colors have different scents, do you think so ?
Paradise Tennant: hmm that is question for luci

Aphrodite Macbain: some people can smell the sea, I can't
stevenaia Michinaga: senses are so personalized
Aphrodite Macbain: Smell is so primal

Calvino Rabeni: ahem stevenaia
Korel Laloix: There are some scents that are very evocative for sure.
Aphrodite Macbain: :-)
Paradise Tennant: lol
stevenaia Michinaga: yes, like some animals can sense when you are sick
