The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 15 July 2019 4 Comments

The newest Astier de Villatte incense flavor: Porte des Lilas. "A dream of times past: next stop, Porte des Lilas. At the exit of the Paris Métro 20s metro station, the stairs bring travellers to alleys neatly bordered by pretty little houses, with mauve lilacs overflowing their garden fences, mixed here and there with puffs of rose and jasmine.

Or, ask a question about fragrance, then see if anyone else has asked a question that you can answer…
