 Do you know why people started using perfume?

 But, it is a medieval story.

The first story is Cleopatra

 

 

B:  Cleopatra was using perfume? That’s the first time I’ve heard that.

 

A:  To be precise, she had a concept similar to perfume.

 

B:  I see.

 What was she doing?

A:  Cleopatra didn’t always miss the smell of roses.

 And, she was taking a rose bath every day.

 In today’s money, she was using $2, 000 of roses every day.

 

B: Was she using so much money on perfume?

  If I have $2,000, I would eat delicious food.

 

A: I think so too.

 She captivated men with the rose fragrance.

 

B: She was a scary woman.

 

A: But, if she wasn’t thinking like this, perfumes wouldn’t exist.
