The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 13 October 2022 7 Comments

Another option for your holiday shimmer: Chanel's limited edition No. 5 The Gold Body Oil / Huile d'Or. (I know they did a similar product in 2017, and possibly there have been others as well.) "The bottle houses golden-colored fragments that appear weightlessly suspended. The nourishing formula imparts a soft, satiny veil and subtle sheen for a radiant result. Inspired by the silky blend of May rose and grasse jasmine featured in the original fragrance, the body oil brings the floral-aldehydic bouquet of the timeless scent to life with voluptuous flair." $100 for 250 ml at Nordstrom.

    I would love this because I love scented oils and I love n5 but I have scented oil that i never use … trying to buy based on my actual behavior patterns and not “oooooo!” ;D

      Also a sucker for “ooooooo”, but trying to do better. Maybe a holiday hand soap from Target would do the trick….

      Literally, in this case, shiny object syndrome 🙂

    I have the gel version from 2017. It’s realllllly nice. The scent is No 5 Lite, very wearable, assuming you want to be gold glittery too 🙂

    I love that they’ve called out ,”The bottle houses golden-colored fragments that appear weightlessly suspended,” as if every cheap drugstore beauty line has not also figured out how to make glitter oil.

    If it were almost any other Chanel scent, I’d be much more covetous than I am with No 5 🙂
