Loewe will launch L Loewe, a new fragrance for women, and no relationship to their now-discontinued debut fragrance, 1972’s L de Loewe.
The new L Loewe is, like the flowers, an exquisite fragrance…
New from White Castle (yes, that White Castle): a candle that smells like, well, you can already guess, right?

I’m the odd man out on Tom Ford’s Private Blend line. I like a few of them, but by and large they strike me as not nearly so interesting or well-done as the (aspirational) prices might imply. I waited a good long time to try them at all, and when I finally worked my way through the initial twelve 2007 releases, the only one I really wanted to own was Oud Wood, and it was easy enough to control that lemming given that Yves Saint Laurent M7 is cheaper and easier to come by. Since then, there have been nine new additions to the line, including the four fragrances in the pleasant but comically overpriced White Musk collection.
Arabian Wood is one of the later additions. It was reportedly created for a “a well-known Arabian sheik” (ok) and was originally exclusive to the Tom Ford boutique in Kuwait. In 2009, it was unleashed unto the world at large, and in keeping with my usual pace, I’m getting around to it about a year later.
Arabian Wood is very much in keeping with the others in the Private Blend collection: it’s rough and loud…
Serge Lutens will launch two more new fragrances this year, Boxeuses and Bas de Soie.
Boxeuses (shown above left) joins the exclusive range…
