Singer Ariana Grande will launch Moonlight, a new fragrance for women, next month…
Tuesday scent of the day 8/29
Happy Tuesday! NPR has another list of charities working to help the victims of Hurricane Harvey. (Teapot freaks might also want to check out the images from the Texas Teapot Tournament, held every year at the Clay Arts Museum and Education in Houston.) What fragrance are you wearing?
It’s another testing day for me. Will I ever catch up? I’ve started off with a tiny spritz of Amouage Blossom Love.

The daily lemming
Jaboneria Marianella's Moroccan Fig and Bergamot bar soap: "Our stimulating Moroccan Fig and Bergamot fragrance refreshes and invigorates the senses, with crisp notes of Moroccan Fig, the sweet citrus aroma of Bergamot from the Ivory Coast, and delicately mixed notes of Apple, Grapefruit, Plum and Rosewood." The 170g bar is $14 at Amazon or Bloomingdales, and features a base of goat milk, colloidal oatmeal and Moroccan argan oil.

Coty Inc., the world’s third-largest cosmetics maker and owner of the Burberry Beauty license, reported a sales decrease of 3 percent in its luxury division in the fiscal year ending June 30, 2017, driven by declines in the Marc Jacobs and Calvin Klein scents, although organic sales increased by 5 percent in the fourth quarter.
