Citrus, Eau de Cologne Impériale, 1853, Tuesday 28

Citrus is “Eau de Cologne Impériale” in 1853, and the figure kept beside it is 4711. This week, smell one scent only, and do not mix several bottles at once. Do not write the bottle’s price as the scent’s worth. The log keeps the name, the year, and the figure. Guerlain for Empress Eugénie; bees on the bottle, bergamot in the juice. At the hallway, open Citrus so the log shows 1853 first, 4711 next, and “Eau de Cologne Impériale” beside them.

This week, before you go out, write the scent’s name, the year, and the figure on the first line of the scent log, and read that line once before it touches cloth. When you come home, smell the sleeve and add one line on whether it is the same scent as the log. The order is Citrus, 1853, 4711, then “Eau de Cologne Impériale”. When the collar is done, look again only at 1853 for Citrus and leave 4711 on the log.

Do not rank scents by a score, and do not write a fashion order in the log. In the hallway, check that the first line of the log and the bottle’s name match, and set the bottle down if they do not. Do not write the bottle’s price as the scent’s worth. The log keeps the name, the year, and the figure. Match Eau de Cologne Impériale with 4711 at the hallway before you close 1853 for Citrus. Citrus is “Eau de Cologne Impériale” in 1853, and the figure kept beside it is 4711.
