You read my mind. I seemed to remember in the dusty recesses of my
mind that there was some makeup product called Ashes of Roses, though I
had no idea what it was, and the only reason I remembered this was
because Bourjois used to have a scent by that name, and for some reason
it's always struck me as intensely romantic. (Even if the actual *smell*
of ashes of roses wouldn't be particularly romanticbut then, the names
of scents aren't meant to be taken literally, as a rule: imagine Opium
or Organza literally interpreted.)
