BitterGrace is weary beyond words. She'll post tomorrow. Meanwhile, here's a question for the perfume crowd:
Farnesiana or L'Heure Bleue?
And for the literary contingent:
Katherine Anne Porter or Eudora Welty?
The Sleeping Spinner, Gustave Courbet, 1853

Rest, my daggly angel.
You're always worth waiting for.
I refuse to choose-
Too cruel; love each, for utterly variant reasons-
Perfume and literature.
Katherine Anne, no question, although if it had been between Eudora Welty and lots of others, I'd have put Eudora first.
I don't know Farnesia but I'm inclined to say LHB even though I really can't wear it. The idea of it is so sublime.
Feel better, darlin'.
But choosing is what it's all about, I. Don't you feel that every morning when you survey the collection? ;-)
Yeah, I with you on Katherine Anne, R. She was a genius. I'd rather have dinner with Eudora, though.
I think LHB is a little too sublime, to tell you the truth. How is one supposed to navigate the world smelling like that?
Chaya, always embracing all... :)
Am returning to my senses, and catching up on bloggery. Always a joy to pass this way...though I understand why the question you pose here vexes so.
Nonetheless, as of today, and subject to change, I would embrace:
L'Heure Bleu
Katherine Anne Porter
Without rejecting the others, Chaya. ;)
Hey, ScentScelf, it is nice to see you back among the bloggers. I guess I really did try to set perfumes and writers from different weight classes against each other--but I do have a soft spot for Farnesiana. I think it deserves more love.
