Possets Valentine 2009 Limited Edition Perfume Oil (Limited)
A tussy mussy is a Victorian bouquet which is carried with a lady and allows her to refresh her nose as she goes through her day. Usually it is small, well made, with a special ribbon tied around it, and has sweetly scented flowers in it, which are pastel and (if possible) coordinates with the lady's dress. This tussy mussy would be pink, and it would have with it several flowers I associate with the early spring and even deep winter.Violets, winter blooming witch hazel, a hyacinth, primrose, and a sprig of thyme taken from the kitchen windowsill so it's not just all sweet flowers, there is a hint of "gravitas" to this bouquet. Somehow it comes out far more of a unified whole than a "floral perfume", all the flowers play together very nicely.
