    My mum was a hair dresser and when I was a kid (very early 70's) her clients would buy me and my sis Christmas gifts. I got a present of Quelques Fleurs one year and loved it, aged 8 or 9 probably. I used to snap at my sis if she sneaked a spray! I had totally forgotten that memory until the...
