Byredo Mixed Emotions ~ new fragrance

Niche line Byredo has launched Mixed Emotions, a new unisex fragrance…
The (almost) daily lemming

From the Thé des Signes series at Mariage Frères, the Year of the Ox tea: "Inspired by the heroic and protective Ox, MARIAGE FRÈRES has imagined an intense black tea, its roundness sublimated by the luscious notes of sun kissed fruits. Goji berries, the signature ingredient in the THÉ DES SIGNES collection, accentuate the composition with beneficial vitamins. This YEAR OF THE OX tea’s pagoda-shaped tin dazzles with a magnetic colour of Java plum. An enveloping and gourmet cup for a year of serenity and well-being." $45 at ZGO Perfumery in San Francisco.
Friday scent of the day 2/12

Happy Friday and Happy (Lunar) New Year! (Also, Darwin Day and Lincoln’s birthday, plus RIP Chick Corea.) Our community project for today: welcome the Year of the (Metal) Ox by wearing a fragrance that represents diligence, dependability, loyalty, honesty and hard work.
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.
Diligence, dependability, loyalty, honesty and hard work: right away I thought of Prada Infusion d’Iris (not the Absolue, even though I do prefer it — that’s too luxurious for the ox.)
Reminder: on 2/19, we’re doing the Picture Challenge, edition 6…
