It is widely accepted that smell is one of the most evocative of the senses. A whiff of a long forgotten scent can, without a moments warning, whisk you back to that very place. All of a sudden you will find yourself immersed in memories – in the smell of the beach, the sound of the waves lapping on the shore, the taste of the delicious food on your plate.

Going to Fashion Week would make most of us feel a bit frumpy.

You don’t have to be a cynic with a heart made out of a pumice stone to loathe Valentine’s Day. There’s no other date in the calendar that forces us to buy pointless gifts, feel bad about being single or hate the sight of red foil-wrapped chocolate as much as we do on 14th February. Who really cares about some martyred saint that no one really knows anything about? At least Christmas comes with a two week pass to binge on sausage rolls and stay home from work. Even if you’re not reli...
