Happy Easter, everyone! It’s time to fill your (fantasy) Easter basket:
1. You can pick one perfume, new or old: what is it?
2. And you can have one other scented product (a candle, a body lotion, anything): what is it?
3. Your favorite candy?
4. And any random present you’d like the Easter bunny to bring you…
Mostly, I want this jar: the Coconut & Palm candle from Nest. "Crushed coconut and sparkling bergamot are mingled with rich amber over a base of vanilla-infused musk. No passport necessary: Transport yourself to balmy beaches and sparkling shoreside sunsets with our new tropical-inspired Summer `Scape Collection. The essence of a chill getaway, this collection features brightly decorated ceramic vessels in unique hexagonal shapes, bringing vacation vibes to your everyday. These beautiful vessels feature original artwork inspired by indigenous designs." Limited edition, and also available in Hibiscus & Dragon Fruit (pink and orange) and Pineapple & Driftwood (yellow, orange and blue). $46 at Saks Fifth Avenue; the matching diffusers are $52.
Karlie Kloss in a quick spot for the Carolina Herrera Good Girl Dot Drama collector edition.
Yes, make this in more scents please! Arquiste's travel sprayer in Nanban ("Following a diplomatic mission to the West, a galleon carrying a delegation of samurai charges through dark ocean currents. Loaded with a rare and precious cargo, the ship’s hull is redolent of sweet-smelling tropical woods, heady Spanish leather, frankincense, fine black pepper and other exotic ground spices—the intoxicating spirit of a singular, extraordinary voyage of discovery.") is $25 for 7.5 ml.
Happy Twice as Nice Friday! (It’s also Dutch-American Friendship Day and Bicycle Day.) Our community project for today: wear a fragrance that you’ve purchased more than once (a scent that you used up and bought again, or a scent for which you’ve already got a backup bottle). If you don’t have such a fragrance, wear the scent you’d be most likely to rebuy. Thanks go to thegoddessrena for the idea!
What fragrance did you pick? As always, do chime in with your scent of the day even if you’re not participating in the community project.
I’m in Hermès Osmanthe Yunnan. I said when I reviewed it that I did not need 100 ml of anything and wished I’d waited for the 15 ml sizes to go on sale, but as it turned out, that 100 ml bottle disappeared faster than any other perfume I’ve ever bought. It helps that it is light, and short lived, and that I adore the top notes. Anyway, it’s been replaced with a 15 ml…
