Inspired by Reena’s Xploration Challenge #320 – Diminished
& Moonwashed Weekly Prompt – Sachets
we found such beautiful sachets
on our shopping excursion
to the quaint little town to the north
the display was simple
yet drew us all in
we touched, sniffed, ooh’d and aah’d
they dangled so exposed, not held in plastic
yet their scent was not diminished
beckoning young and old admirers
we delighted in their magic
each purchasing one or two
what a lovely find for us all

Yes, Susi, a wonderful find indeed! 🙌💕

Susi, what a delightful poem. I love sachets because they remind me of spring. I have several that were gifted to me and keep them in drawers. 💟

Indian FMCG companies captured rural markets with low-priced sachets of shampoo, detergents, creams, tomato ketchup, spice mixes etc. It was the first step towards habit formation, in unexplored geographies.
