A Lab On Fire has launched And The World Is Yours, a new limited edition fragrance celebrating the 15th anniversary of niche boutique Luckyscent.
Few photographs capture the sumptuousness of celebrity more than the iconic photograph of Faye Dunaway by famed English photographer Terry O’Neill. The starlet sits poolside at the Beverly Hills Hotel at 6 a.m., hungover from winning an Oscar, sanguine in a pale silk robe, newspapers in a moat around her feet declaring her victor. And who better to pay homage to this most Hollywood morning-after, but Dominique Ropion, master of the doe-eyed and disheveled A Lab On Fire classics What We Do In Paris Is Secret and Messy Sexy Just Rolled Out Of Bed?
And the World Is Yours kicks off with a blast of neroli that floods the senses, rich and fresh with the thrilling energy of a papparazzo's flashbulb. With a dramatic sigh, the neroli gives way to a warm, creamy orange blossom, enhanced with a flattering kick of spice. Ropion’s signature vanilla musk plays its part with a powdery puff of heliotrope—apropos for the Hollywood sensuality. And just like the shimmering sunsets of Los Angeles, it melts into a honeyed, musky, golden finish. Like Dunaway in the photograph, And the World Is Yours is stylish, sexy- and still basking in the afterglow of last night's adventures.
A Lab On Fire And The World Is Yours is $30 for 10 ml. The first run has already sold out; sign up at Luckyscent to get on the waiting list for the second run.

So it’s a second limited fragrance for Luckyscent after Bogue Noun. Quite unusual, isn’t it?
They did 4 scents for their 10th, and this year they also did a Hilde Soliani exclusive — and I’m not at all sure I’m remembering everything. So I guess it’s unusual but it’s not unprecedented 🙂
Looks like they are doing quite a few exclusive and one of a kinds for their anniversary. I’m pouting as I got closed out of the first round of ALOF. Waited listed though….

P.S. I am not affiliated with Luckyscent but am a frequent financial contributor. ????
Thank you, I had already forgotten Petit Papiers, which is the one I will regret the most. I will try to forget it again 😉
I shouldn’t tell anyone, in order to avoid competition, but there this note on the site now:
Please note: A limited supply of Petits Papiers bottles are due to arrive March 2018
Argh.
But yay, went to look at it and am reminded of why I did not get it in the first place: 50 ml (nope) for $165 (nope again).
Here’s the famous photo…A bridge from the 1970s back to the 40s and forward to the 80s…

Excellent, thanks!
Thanks, this is wonderful!
Wasn’t someone else photographed having breakfast in bed with her Oscar, or maybe just Oscar on the bed stand the next morning? I can’t remember who it was, though.
Joan Crawford famously claimed she was too ill to attend the Academy Awards ceremony, and then invited a photographer to take her picture in bed with her Oscar. Those photos are hilarious. Maybe that is what you are thinking of?
Just google ‘images of Joan crawford in bed with Oscar’ for a laugh.
It was someone more recent, but I’m not finding it. Probably not a big deal, just some little article in a magazine. I’ve even tried searching for some of the Best and Best Supporting Actress winners who seem more playful, and I’m not finding it. But these photos of Joan are compensating for the frustration, thankfully.
