kinmokusei
I can remember - not too long ago,
perhaps last year...one beautiful fall day standing just outside of an elementary school
i used to work at. Something filled my olfactory senses with the most pleasurable
experience I`ve laid my nose on. The "kinmokusei"( famous flower in Japan ) flower - I`m not sure how to spell it,
is a beautiful little yellow orange flower ("kin" means gold in Japanese), similar in shape
and size to lilac flowers - it too grows on a medium/large sized bush.
I have officially designated the "kinmokusei"( famous flower in Japan) flower as the most beautiful smelling flower
on earth. honestly I can`t describe it. Its slightly woody with notes of orange and vanilla.
The plant blooms in early fall and can be found all around Tokyo.
I`ve attached a picture of it here for you guys to scout one about yourselves.
Remember take time in your live to "stop and smell the flowers"!
See you guys,
M
