#WPBStory “After we became a couple, she composed our time together. She planned days as if they were artistic events. One afternoon we went to Tybee Island for a picnic; we ate blueberries and drank champagne tinted with curacao and listened to Miles Davis, and when I asked the name of her perfume, she said it was L’Heure Bleue. She talked about ‘perfect moments.’ One such moment happened that af- ternoon; she’d been napping; I lay next to her, reading. She said, ‘I’ll always remember the sounds of the sea and of pages turning, and the smell of L’Heure Bleue. For me they signify love.” ― Susan Hubbard, The Society of S wpbmagazine . com 42 wpbmagazine • j u ly t h r u s e p t e m b e r 2017
