Pencils & Perfumes 鉛筆と祈りと香水―香りの世界と出会う場所

My mind swimming pool
Still looks like the China Sea
Pool to sea
And finally
The sound-a-sleep
Feel the moist sense in your face
Twist relax remembering

‘Sound-A-Sleep’ by Blondie

A few weeks ago I thought I’d spray the beautiful Voyage by Hiram Green on my skin before going to bed-I tend to look for . Voyage is an intoxicating blend of fresh citrus top notes, a velvet heart of warm amber and luscious suede over a smooth vanilla base.

Clumsy as I can be at times, I unfortunately dropped the limited edition bottle and put it back on the shelf in my room. However I hadn’t noticed it started leaking and the smell of Voyage was there when I went to bed to dream every night. Now the bottle is nearly empty and I sealed it as to preserve the little bit of what’s left of the juice.

Above you see a drawing I made in 2015, right after purchasing Voyage. It actually was inspired by the perfume and the idea of traveling, traveling by just closing your eyes and imagining different worlds.
