A long time ago I learned not to explain things to people. It misleads them into thinking they’re entitled to know everything I do.

May and October, the best-smelling months? I’ll make a case for December: evergreen, frost, wood smoke, cinnamon.

A versatile flower, the daisy. Lovely in its freshness and simplicity.

This is the perfume of March: rain, loam, feathers, mint.

Rain: March is a month of high precipitation in many parts of the world, marking the transition from winter to spring. The smell of rain on dry earth, often described as petrichor, is very characteristic. Loam: This probably refers to the moist soil that becomes soft after winter and due to rain. The smell of wet earth and fertile soil is strong in early spring. Feathers: This can symbolize several things: Birds: March is the month when many migratory birds return and begin nesting. The smell of feathers can be an association with the presence of birds and new life. Lightness/New Beginnings: Feathers also represent lightness, flight and a sense of new beginnings, in keeping with the emerging spring. Mint: The scent of mint is fresh and spicy, and can represent the first herbs and plants that start to grow in spring. It adds an element of freshness and vitality to the image. The statement captures the essence of March: moist, earthy, full of new life and with a fresh promise of spring. Origin and Author 📚🕵️‍♀️: Lisa Kleypas is the author. This quote is often attributed to her and comes from one of her novels. Kleypas is known for her detailed and sensory descriptions, especially in her historical novels. The quote is specifically from her book “Dreaming of You,” part of her “Gamblers” series. In this book, one of the characters describes the smell of March in this way. So it is not an old weather saying in the traditional sense of the word (such as folk wisdom about the weather), but rather a literary statement that beautifully captures the atmosphere of March.

Sometimes life has a cruel sense of humor, giving you the thing you always wanted at the worst time possible.
