Eileen's little black bag




               




The story:

Eileen has had enough. 2 years after George passed away it was time for some changes. Her arthritis wasn't going to get any better by standing around in all weathers, selling fruit and veg. Tomorrow she would say good bye to the other ladies at the Grocer's, hand the keys of the house on Hollydale Road to the new owners, and go on a 6 months Yoga retreat in Goa.




The location:

The bench overlooking St.Paul's at Nunhead cemetery












If you look closely you can just about see St.Paul's in the distance









Eileen's story in scent is told with notes of:



Mandarin
Violets
Patchouli
Cinnamon


We would love to hear from you!

    1. Hi Sarah, I am so happy that you have found the bag and made this fantastic video. You were really close with your guesses about the scents as well....
      Thanks for taking part and hopefully you will find more abandoned scents in the future.
