"Dos Gardenios" from Buena Vista Social Club


My first gardenias of the season. 

Wish you could scratch and sniff. 

The aroma is heavy, heady, pungent, and heavenly.

"Dos Gardenias" It is a poignant Cuban bolero (dating back to the '30's)-- sung by Ibrahim Ferrer, who sings with the mojo of one who has been utterly betrayed.

  1. Yes. The result of gardenia whispering through a cold as hell Florida winter.
