Scents of Red Rock Canyon in April

Red Rock Canyon is absolutely magnificent in April. Seems like every little flower, shrubs and bushes in some kind of "Fragrance of the Year" competition.

Red Rock Canyon is one of my most favorite places to visit. Don’t think when you going to Las Vegas, it's all about a famous strip and gambling , absolutely not! There is so many beautiful sites to see within 30 minutes drive.

I never saw blooming desert before, I had no idea it could be that fantastic.

Chunky aroma of Joshua Tree flowers

Once you stepped out of the car, divine aroma enters your nostrils and your head starts spinning because those fantastic scents around you and it captivates you in the same second and holds you a hostage rest of the trip ! What is it I wonder? What kind of wildflowers smells like that.

I started obsessively running around and trying to smell every flowers I saw on my way. I bet it was entertaining for some tourists, because as you could’ve guessed -dessert wildflowers are significantly small , in order to smell it you should strike almost yoga like pose … like "Upward Sniffing Dog" or something.. 😊

To my surprise, I couldn’t figure it out what flowers exactly benefited the air. Instead, and also to my pleasant surprise, I've encountered so many beautiful flowers I never saw before and never knew exist.

As it brochure said Red Rock Canyon has more that 600 different species of plants, and some of them you couldn’t found anywhere in the world. I couldn’t possible see them all, but there is some:

I wish I could’ve bottle up those amazing air or maybe it will be my next challenge, to create perfume with desert wildflowers fragrance : light yet powerful, unrecognizable yet so pleasant. After all this is the real reason behind perfume creation is to make liquid happy memories.
