The first time was not when we undressed
but a few days before,
while you were talking under a tree.
I felt distant areas of my body
who were returning home "

Hello amazing Flickr people!
Today is yellow day at Color My World Daily Group and the theme at *ღღ* Cosas de casa *ღღ Group is : Perfume bottle.
This is a vintage perfume bottle from the 40. It was my husband’s grandmother perfume bottle. Since I love vintage old items with character, my mother in law gave me this amazing little bottle. I absolutely love it. Apparently, you are supposed to pour your favorite parfum in it. But since the price of genuine parfum is rather too high for my budget, my little bottle is empty and I use it as decoration. Maybe I will try to make some dandelions parfum, I have so many of those flowers, it will be super cheap! I will call it : “Nostalgie de pissenlits” or dandelions nostalgia. Also, all my perfumes are in spray bottles and knowing how clumsy I am, it would be a disaster if I try to open the spray bottle and pour it in this very, very tiny, unique and fragile crystal bottle…. Can you imagine the potential mess happening ?? I definitely can. Plus, I’m sure that if, God forbid, something happens to my bottle my mother in law would give me definitely the stinkiest eye ever! And I don’t blame her! This bottle is older than me, so I have the responsibility to protect it with my own body!!! Until my death! and then, probably, my 2 sons will throw it away with all my junk… But at least it will not be my fault!
See you later my friends !! My video meeting starts in few minutes… Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and healthy!! And enjoy your day !!!

Thank you to everyone who pauses long enough to look at my photo. Any comments or Faves are very much appreciated.
The persuasive power of perfume cannot be denied, it penetrates us as the air we breathe penetrates our lungs, fills us, totally dominates us, there is no way to oppose it.
(Patrick Süskind) your love does this
I love this perfume. I bought it at a duty-free store, when departing from New Calendonia after a holiday there.
The name "heliotrope" derives from the old idea that the inflorescences of these plants turned their rows of flowers to the sun.[4] Ἥλιος (helios) is Greek for "sun", τρέπειν (trepein) means "to turn". The Middle English name "turnsole" has the same meaning. Guerlain's "L'Heure Bleue" is a classic perfume that uses heliotrope in its formula

The flowers on the wall is inspired by this lovely wall made by Kristel (kjw010). When I first saw that, I always wanna try to make one myself if the theme or subject is right, and I think this perfumes bottle will looks good using that beautiful technique.
It’s my 16th entry for Iron Builder competition vs. Gilcelio Chagas. The secret ingredient for this round is 2 x 2 Domes in Dark Blue.
