The Perfumed Primary Project: NEW Super Tuesday Style

Current Fragrance: Liaisons Dangereuses by Kilian
Currently Listening: White Rabbit by Jefferson Airplane

*Work like a soul inspired till the battle of the day is won
You may be sick and tired but you'll be a man my son
Don't you remember the famous man who had to fall to rise again?
They picked themselves up, dust themselves off and started all over again*
