The perfumes of cloves, flax seeds, and jaggery infused with semolina and almonds. The floating odours of Cardamom and fennel seeds in my chai. The multiple freckles of loose yarn and spools of thread were found stacked in a random tin box. The freshness of cut fabric and layers of rolled fabric rolls, some embellished and others marbled with botanical patterns. Khakhi, pistachio and ecru-coloured shalwar kameez folded and some creased on the top shelf of a coffee-coloured wardrobe.
