About the Fragrance:
When an American couple uproots and leaves everything behind to start a new life in rural France, their rosy dreams are quickly replaced with something more lavender in hue—not bad, necessarily, just different. Every day presents a new hurdle for the ex-pats but each night rewards with a sense of accomplishment (usually celebrated over kir royales in the quaint village square up the road from their more-rustic-than-anticipated farmhouse). Friends don’t come easy but when they do, they come with wisdom, laughter, and some of the most memorable meals of their lives. How To Say Bicycle in French allows you to live vicariously through the adventures, misadventures, and heartwarming escapades of two people who prioritized health and happiness over wealth and security. As they learned from the well-dressed Frenchman who rode his squeaky bicycle through the village each evening, “L’amour est de tous les temps!”
