The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 27 October 2021 5 Comments

Cire Trudon's latest candle: the limited edition Mary. "The fantastical world by Mary Shelley's work : a combination of spices as the recipe for a strange potion, tender and exotic wood notes expressing desire for movement, a soft amber and tobacco accord reminiscent of certain scents of her time. The Mary perfume is theatrical, with a luminous depth: floral and spicy notes of immortelle, tuberose, star aniseed and cardamom hint at maverick travels that a heady heart – composed of patchouli, Cedar, Gaiac wood – further transgresses. Mary is a subversive perfume: the testament of a rich interior life, it reveals the life of a cursed heroine." Additional notes include juniper, pepper, papyrus, labdanum and moss. $140 for 270g or $650 for the giant 2.8kg.
