He could not resist the charm of that haunting, delicious fragrance
JIM didn't dislike me, apparently. It was worse than that. He was indifferent to me — sometimes even ignored me altogether.
It isn't much fun, not being noticed by a man you admire — feel strongly attracted to. It hurts your pride, if nothing more.
Jim came to our house often, but to see my brother. And I used to see him out at parties now and then. Sometimes I danced with him. I wore the prettiest clothes I could manage, and was as charming as I knew how to be. But all to no avail. Jim was good humored and friendly — but oh, so casual! How could I make him think of me, want to know me better — seek me out?
I was a modern girl, but not altogether in sympathy with the frank, obvious methods of "getting one's man." And Jim was a little old-fashioned, and reserved. Not wild about girls — certainly not wild about me!
But I found a way. A subtle, fascinating way, to impress myself upon Jim's consciousness! Up to that time I don't believe he ever thought of me when he was away from me.
My brother and I gave a little party at our house and that night for the first time I used a perfectly enticing perfume.
Deliciously fragrant, delightfully elusive — all evening I was aware of its alluring fragrance. I felt it made me distinctive — charming.
Jim must have thought so for he danced with me again and again, and his glances and

speech became more and more personal as the evening wore on. It was evident he was seeing me with new eyes — seeing me as I had always hoped he might see me — in a flattering, romantic light.
Jim stayed after the other guests had gone. When the door had closed on the last of them, I sat down at the piano and softly played some of the tunes to which we had just been dancing.
Jim came over to stand beside me. He held out to me a filmy square of chiffon and lace, and said:
"This is your handkerchief, I know. I picked it up in the hall and I recognized the perfume at once. Where did you ever find a fragrance so lovely, so irresistible— so like yourself?"
I looked up to meet his eyes and put one hand up against the piano to steady myself Jim's hand closed over mine, and then we were both seeing things through a fragrant mist of glamour and enchantment.
