My memory scent is Jasmin, a fragrance that holds timeless appeal across all ages. Its captivating aroma never grows old or tiresome. I can vividly recall walking down the streets on my way back from school, surrounded by the enchanting scent of Jasmin flowers. The sidewalks were adorned with merchants selling bundles of Jasmin, while talented ladies skillfully crafted intricate earrings and necklaces using thread and needle. They even adorned their hair with Jasmin, turning it into a fragrant and beautiful accessory.
At home, a similar scent filled the air, but with a twist. The ladies in my family would blend Jasmin with pandanus, roses, oud, and other aromatic elements, creating something truly unique. The process of blending these scents became a cherished ritual, brimming with joy, love, and innocent laughter. The room would be filled with delightful aromas as they meticulously crafted perfumes, which were then shared among those involved.
