Hi Elena,
ReplyDeleteI have to say, and with all due respect, the winners of the Aftelier draw did not follow the instructions. You said to name the 4 flowers on the postcards from Grasse. Violet was NOT one of them. Sorry, what can I say, I'm a teacher. If I'm wrong, then I'm just an ass.
Cheryl,
ReplyDeletethanks for letting me know!!
I just checked the winners and they mostly provided the 4 flowers I requested from the postcards. (It's true that most people included violets, upping the count to 5 flowers instead of the 4 asked) and I did the random.org pick through all those submissions. I did just now edit out one winner who didn't name all the 4 correct flowers, though. Will provide the new name in a sec. Sorry about the confusion.
Yours was absolutely correct!
Adding that violets do appear on a vintage postcard, on the liquid perfumes page, but they're not named (in French) like the rest of them are. FWIW.
