Maybe our rulers know that we need to sniff? When the first “Stay Home” decree was announced, some journalists wonder why the perfumeries could remain open. Besides warming you up, it has a marvellous perfume. Have you never made a cake? It’s the right time to try. therfore we must elaborate on those that we can still smell.Ī cake just taken out of the oven. Some perfumes are forgotten and far away from us. If I have suggested hugging a tree, to pet a flower, in order to overcome the lack of contact, now I suggest smelling the flower or the grass in order not to forget the power of scent. This happened even before the Coronavirus. Loneliness is not an unwelcome company.įor these reasons you can perceive that scent is lacking more in our cities than on the mountains or in the countryside. The feeling of disorientation is higher in our cities, which are not crowded early in the evening, than on the mountains where people are less upset and emptyness is not considered as something to fill up with all means and all noises. This can be shown by the general emotional mood pervading not only Italians but also the other inhabitants of our planet called Earth. The Coronavirus is ruling scent and our hearts too, isn’t it? In a certain way, the answer is : yes, it’s obvious. This virus wants us to take perfume away.Īccording to the quote I have started this article with, who ruled scent ruled the hearts of men. If the mask can filter viruses, obviously, as a consequence, it can filter molecules of herbs and scents which are bigger than viruses. Therefore, now we must try to protect our breath by wearing a filter mask that should have the purpose of preventing the very small viruses from coming into our mouth and our nose. The main reason of the emergency is due to the loss of sleeps in intensive care and to the great demand for ventilators for assisted breathing. The most of deaths is caused by breathing difficulties. The Covid-19 is a virus that causes pneumonia. If we can survive without touching (at least for a little while), we cannot live without breathing W e cannot shake a hand, hug each other, exchange a sign of peace. Yesterday I wrote about the fact that the touch sense has become forbidden, at least as far as the contact with our people is concerned. ― Patrick Süskind, Perfume: The Story of a Murderer He who ruled scent ruled the hearts of men.” And scent entered into their very core, went directly to their hearts, and decided for good and all between affection and contempt, disgust and lust, love and hate.
Together with breath it entered human beings, who couldn’t defend themselves against it, not if they wanted to live.
For people could close their eyes to greatness, to horrors, to beauty, and their ears to melodies or deceiving words.
