She greedily placed it several times to her nose, and drawing it backwards and forwards, said,
“Oh most delicious! How nice must the wine have been, when it leaves behind in the very vessel which contained it so sweet a perfume!”
The moral of this story:
‘What memory clings around the instruments of our pleasure.’
This is not necessarily an autobiographical fable

OMG, the power of the emotions evoked by the sense of smell – I believe it to be the most powerful sense Lou. Don’t you remember studying this at the Ensemble? Love your work… xx
Sense memory, those classes are imprinted on my brain xx
