There's something really admirable about French culture and an attraction in how independent it is from our own.

Henry Ward Beecher

As far as I'm concerned, attraction, in its most rudimentary form, comes from the way a person naturally smells. I'd say that within the first five seconds of 'inhaling' someone, I know if there's an attraction or not. This may sound animalistic - and it is.
