Zeta-a linden blossom theme-

Yesterday, in my two room factory, I filled ZETA- a linden blossom theme, one of my underperforming fragrances, into 15 ml flacons of the explorer set. Underperforming is a bit misleading, though.

I couldn’t resist picking today’s title for today’s post, shooting the right picture, and downloading the right tune on itunes… Yesterday, the W.-factor and me (finally!!!) were sowing some basil seeds.
