Perfumed skin

I rarely take baths at night, unless it's to help me sleep or if I have company.

I decided on a late afternoon bath because the sky has been overcast and gray. I have been chilly despite the unusual warmth. And there's just something so pleasurable about natural light streaming through the window.

The water was a light, milky violet.

My skin now smells like rose oil and almond, my hair like sweet orange.

I feel more peaceful now.
