The first rains of the season are always something special. Apart from providing much needed respite from some seriously oppressive heat, they bring with them that heady perfume which probably features on almost everyone’s ‘My favourite things’ list!
Before the rains can bring with them damp clothes, muddy roads, slippery staircases, leaking train roofs, mud stains and well, you know the rest of it, they bring a fragrance so strong and so familiar that I feel like bottling it and selling it at exorbitant prices!
Of all the fragrances nature has to offer, never was such a perfect combination than the smell of the first rains on dry and heated land.
Never was a fragrance that was so strong and delicate at the same time. Never was a fragrance more welcomed.
A fragrance bordering on the intoxicating.
A fragrance that lingered long into the night.
A fragrance that held the promise of more.
