Chapter 599
Raising his eyebrows, Noah watched her pick up some raw materials. She finished plucking, gave him
a sidelong glance, and headed for the shed.
The shed had the equipment ready, but it was not complete. It was obviously meant to make things
difficult. Not that it affected Lily one way or another. She ignored him and continued working on
perfecting the formula.
For the past two days, she had done nothing at this place. It would be wasteful not to use the many
premade items she already had. Those included refined essential oils. She only needed to combine the
ingredients and get everything else ready; soon enough, a fragrance would develop.
Noah followed her everywhere and watched her intently regardless of what she did. He said nothing
and just stood there watching.
Lily did not bother with the measuring tool and instead poured everything into a bowl and stirred it all
together by eye. As soon as Noah saw that, he had to shout out an excited “Hey!” He started to speak
again, but Lily glared at him. She said nothing, but it was clear from the look on her face that she
wanted him to shut up.
Nevermind. Let’s just see what she could come up with.
After a while, there was a tinkling sound, and a light fragrant smell soon hit the air.
Noah fancied himself a leader in the field of perfumery. Despite his youth and his name not being as
well known as some of the other top perfumers, he was confident that he would one day become a
pioneer in the industry. Even more ambitiously, he imagined that he would accomplish great things.
However, he started to doubt himself.
After all, Lily was so relaxed and casual in front of him. He had never seen a perfumer make perfume
as comfortably as drinking afternoon tea. She was so engrossed in what she was doing that it made
him feel more at ease.
Time unknowingly passed, and Lily suddenly said, “Okay!
When Noah came to his senses, he rechecked the time and saw that over three hours had passed.
“Give it a try.” She placed a small bottle in front of him, and her face was full of confidence. Although he
already had an expectation, he still took it. He dropped some of the scent on a test. strip using a pipette
and gave it a careful whiff.
It had a very peculiar smell. Naturally, there was a grassy note and a floral sweetness. It made him
think of the morning dew on flowers. It had a fantastic, one–of–a–kind flavor that was pure and natural.
“I don’t seem to have seen this perfume in the market yet. Is this your latest product?” Noah asked,
tilting his head.
“To be exact, it’s today’s new product,” she corrected his statement with a serious tone.
“Today?” He watched her make it step by step, but even so, he was stunned, “I don’t believe it!
Before she could speak, he continued, “Of course! You did make it in front of me, but you should have
thought about this recipe before and done it before, right?”
“It’s up to you if you believe it.” Shrugging her shoulders, Lily did not care about that. “Back to what we
discussed, it’s not about a new or old fragrance, but whether the most common. raw materials can be
used to make the same excellent perfume.”
He had seen all the raw materials she used with his eyes, and nothing was precious or rare.
