OLIENDO TU PERFUME

In 'OLIENDO TU PERFUME,' SALMA (ES) delves into the complexities of love and longing, painting a vivid picture of a relationship teetering on the edge. The song opens with a poignant question about the futility of love when it feels unreciprocated. The lyrics, 'De qué sirve tanto amor si estás como que no estás,' encapsulate the frustration of loving someone who seems emotionally distant. This sets the stage for a narrative filled with yearning and a desperate desire for connection.

The recurring motif of 'oliendo tu perfume' (smelling your perfume) serves as a powerful metaphor for the lingering presence of a loved one. It symbolizes the memories and emotions that remain even when the person is not physically present. The act of smelling the perfume becomes a ritual, a way to hold on to the essence of the relationship. SALMA (ES) uses this imagery to convey a deep sense of attachment and the struggle to let go, despite the evident emotional turmoil.

Throughout the song, there is a palpable tension between wanting to stay and the fear of inevitable separation. Lines like 'No te vayas, dijiste que no nos ven' and 'No quieres entender que me muero por dejar todo atrás' highlight the internal conflict. The artist expresses a desire to enjoy the present moments, to 'disfrutar de to' lo que presume,' while also acknowledging the pain and uncertainty that come with it. The song beautifully captures the bittersweet nature of love, where joy and sorrow coexist, and the heart yearns for what it cannot fully grasp.
