Spring is a herald of optimism. It marks the renewing of the earth, leaves are once again sprouting on trees, flowers are blooming, the days are getting longer and the chill of winter begins to subside. It’s no surprise that some cultures mark the beginning of a new year in Spring. Several years ago March 21st, which is the first day of Spring, was proclaimed as International Fragrance Day. Not only is this a day to pay tribute to all things fragrant, but it’s also a day to appreciate our fantastic sense of smell. How could we go about celebrating this day? To answer that question I reached out to a few sources and took a look online to find out what is planned around the world.
