Cacharel has launched Amor Amor Sunrise, the latest limited edition flanker to their popular Amor Amor fragrance for women (see also: Amor Amor Sunshine & Amor Pour Homme Sunshine, Amor Amor Tentation). The new scent promises “an explosion of freshness and fruits” for a “torrid summer”.

From Clinique, the limited edition Happy Gems set (shown above left), with 100 ml of Clinique Happy, a Happy Charm and a Superbalm Moisturizing Gloss. Available in travel retail. (via press release)
