We woke up on Sunday morning to the scent of ylang ylang in the air. The ylang ylang tree was heavy with white blooms. The air was thick with its intoxicating scent. The ylang ylang is a full-bodied womanly scent that conjures up images of Arabian princesses peopling stories from Scheherazade's One Thousand and One Nights. The scent is redolent of long soaks in an Arabian hammam.
M and I collected some flowers to scent the bedrooms. The fragrance lasts 1 day and 1 night only.
