Sometimes, when coming back to one of my creations in any
medium after a long time, I’m stunned by how good it is, and how I failed to
see the merit in it initially. I think anyone who creates has probably had this
experience, needing to see their work with objective eyes in order to
appreciate it. Sometimes I’m also stunned by the ability of others to draw so
much beauty from my creations, and to express it so beautifully, creating an
entirely new thing of beauty.
Olga Rowe has done this in her review of Sonnet XVII on
CaFleureBon. The review is truly a thing of beauty, both in the words and in
the art that she chose to illustrate it. She has not only told a story, she has
managed to incorporate into a literary work an accurate and detailed
description of the fragrance itself. Nothing sounds forced or contrived. It’s a
masterclass in how to write a good perfume review.
I am immensely grateful to Michelyn Camen and CaFleureBon
for giving me the opportunity to be a part of this wide-reaching project.
