I've watched the original movie and read the book countless times. The lapine mythology, the characters, the world building and the adventure itself are fantastic. I almost don’t believe Richard Adams when he said it’s just a story about rabbits. There’s too much depth to the characters and story and circumstances. A vertical blueberry accord - meaning it lasts from top notes through the base notes - is accented by mellow carnation-like witch hazel, bright and slightly bitter dandelion greens, heady sage (a nod to Fiver, the seer), and the dry down is an earthy blueberry and a sweet and gentle vetiver accord, almost like sweet grass, but with a drier edge to it. The vertical accord of blueberry was a technical challenge I’d been wanting to do for a while, but never really had a place where it fit. After researching what makes up the odor of blueberries (and bilberries and bog blueberries and blackberries and just about every other berry that isn’t red), I found a place where it not only fit, but made sense to do it. “All the world will be your enemy, Prince with a Thousand Enemies, and whenever they catch you, they will kill you. But first they must catch you, digger, listener, runner, prince with the swift warning. Be cunning and full of tricks and your people shall never be destroyed.”
