Aha, the latest collector bottle of Guerlain Shalimar, with a design intended as a decorative tribute to the gardens of Shalimar. Sure, I'll take one. €99 for 50 ml Eau de Parfum.
The daily lemming
Day 8 of cheap thrills from Target: Solinotes Yuzu Rollerball Perfume. "Yuzu. The new peel, the new You. Add some delight to your life with the bright and zesty accords of the Yuzu fruit. Yuzu by Solinotes is a stimulating fragrance with invigorating notes of tangy mandarin. The fragrance opens with notes of lime, lemon, and tangerine that will fill you with joy and brightness, patchouli and oak moss notes give the fragrance depth with a hint of desire." $9.99 for 10 ml.
Gardd Fotaneg Genedlaethol Cymru x 4
From the National Botanic Garden of Wales (Gardd Fotaneg Genedlaethol Cymru), first, recent footage of the Japanese Garden, then (below the jump) Daffodil Day, back in March (a great video if you want specific variety names to plant in your own garden). Then, a general promotional video for the garden from 2014, and last, from 2019, a video about Gardd Lles, a wellbeing garden designed and sponsored by the National Botanic Garden of Wales at the RHS Flower Show Cardiff.
Tuesday scent of the day 4/21
It’s Tuesday (I checked) and National Tea Day in the UK and National Library Workers Day in the US. Plus, a very happy birthday to Queen Elizabeth and Iggy Pop. What fragrance are you wearing?
I’m in Strange Invisible Perfumes Black Rosette. Tea at the moment is Lumbini Estate Ceylon from Upton, with a bit of shaved nutmeg.
Reminder: on 4/24, wear a perfume by Santa Maria Novella, Sonoma Scent Studio, Smell Bent, S-Perfumes or Strange Invisible Perfumes if you have one…
