I was walking my girls to school this week and we shared a perfect, unplanned and special scented moment together. As we turned into a street, we were met with a breeze that carried an unmistakable hit of Wisteria. Sweet, spicy and heady, but a touch metallic and cool too, like a puddle of violet cream fondant on a silver spoon. We all murmured ‘mmmmm’.

“Mummy I LOVE Wisteria!” said Belle.

“I wish I had that as a perfume!” said Pops.

“Well, my love, you’re in luck,” I replied.
