Wow everyone is getting into the fragrance business even though they aren't selling this.
Creating a corporate signature in fragrance seems to be the next big thing…I know several boutiques now pipe in a signature fragrance, and the nose Michel Roudnitska has done some work in this area.
If I had the time, I would try making that Turkish Delight. It sounds really good and mouthwatering.
Hugs!
Drat, R, I was hoping you were going to send me a batch
LOL! Just call me Susie Homemaker.

Probably will never attempt the TD, but I CAN send you cookies for Christmas. They are pretty darn good, if I must say so myself.
Hmph. Doesn't take much to get knighted these days, does it?
R, they have to be better than anything I can produce. I haven't baked anything since I made cupcakes for my son's birthday 2 years ago. *hangs head in shame*
mmm cupcakes bake me some
LOL….isn't a “signature corporate fragrance” one of the signs of the Apocalypse? hahah…
