From The Straits Times    |

The “language of flowers”, or floriography, developed in the Victorian era as a way for lovers to communicate via various flowers and floral arrangements to send coded messages.

Now English luxury scent maker Penhaligon’s has created a series of perfumes that echo the historical custom and allow you to send “messages” to your loved one; or at least use your scent to say something about your personality.
