It’s Monday again, and time for another giveaway. But first,
I want to brag about a wonderful little orchid that’s blooming in my greenhouse
this week, pumping out loads of fragrance. It’s Cadetia taylori, an Australian
species that grows in rainforest and mangrove swamps and looks like a white
insect with antennae. It blooms off and on all year long, but seems to like
summer. The fragrance is a sweet vanilla-mixed floral scent with anise
overtones. It’s similar to some of the Dendrobium moniliforme flowers that have
that anise smell. Australia has more than its share of cool orchid species!
For this week’s giveaway, there is no jackpot because
everything from the Tigerlily tote bags drawing is on its way to the winners.
What I'm offering this week is another 100 g batch of miscellaneous perfume
samples along with whatever other goodies I randomly find in my studio. To
enter the drawing, leave a comment about what features you really like on a
perfume e-store.
Last week’s winners will be announced tomorrow.
