SANTI BON KOUTE CHÈ Coffe Mug

The Haitian Creole proverb, "SANTI BON KOUTE CHÈ" translates to "It is expensive to smell good."

<><><><><><><><> 

"smelling good" is a metaphor for achieving something remarkable or noteworthy. It's not just about using nice perfumes or taking care of yourself physically. It applies to any significant accomplishments you want others to notice, whether it's in education, your career, or personal growth.

<><><><><><><><> 

Achieving something noteworthy requires a lot of resources – time, effort, knowledge, money, and courage. Just like buying an expensive perfume, reaching a notable goal or accomplishment demands investment and sacrifice. So, the proverb is saying that anything worth achieving often comes at a high cost, just like the expense of smelling good.
