Palimpsest

A papery but leathery blend like a palimpsest...warm and comforting but not of the human variety of comfort. A highly sophisticated perfume which you would wear with someone whom you admired and had a desire for. A palimpsest is a parchment which has been scraped clean of its original writing and pictures to be written upon again. Parchments were a valuable item in ancient times and so they were recycled with the original writing being at times more important than what came later. They were a treasure trove of information archeologically speaking.
