Nowadays modern smartphone cameras can beautify our appearance, right?
Well, for this song, we’re getting old fashioned.
Really, really old fashioned.
Like, ancient.
As in, Ancient Persia, where women in the harem went through 6 months of myrrh treatment and another 6 months of oils and spices for their beautification.
Came up with over 50 words that could be used for an upcoming song in the musical about beautification.
Myrrh, oil, sweet odour, purify, marinade, soft-skinned, sweet-smelling, fragrant, perfumes, scent, cosmetics, flower, costly, incense, exquisite, essence, aroma, flavour, spice, ambrosial, balm, smear, massage, ointment, bathe, washed, smooth, immerse, skin, body, shine, glow, polish, refine, cleanse, perfect, quality, substance, rub, scrub, treatment, beauty, therapy, method, custom, habit, allure, charm, elegance, refinement fair
My oudist friend Michael actually contributed a very nice melody, which I think I’m going to use as inspiration for this next song.
Stay tuned!
