PSA: I am leaving on vacation this morning. This will (probably) be the last post today, and posting for the next two weeks will be much lighter than usual. At the very least, there will be a scent of the day post every weekday.

A perfect summer "first layer"? Diptyque's Do Son Fragrance Mist: "Concentrated in a moisturising white lotus extract, this micro-drop fragrance mist is as vaporous as a sea breeze but leaves no sensation of moistness on the skin. In fact, it has an irresistibly soft, powdery finish. Due to its lightness, it is the ideal fragrance gesture for the summertime, refreshing the skin while moisturising it." $55 for 200 ml.
