The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 2 November 2021 2 Comments

Atelier Cologne's holiday 2021 collection features the work of artist Daria Hlazatova. Shown is the limited edition of Clémentine California (100 ml, $142), and there's also a candle in the same design, in Bois Montmartre ("the distinct and inspiring atmosphere of Paris with effervescent notes of petitgrain and pink pepper to brighten the cedarwood base"; 180g for $62), both at Sephora. On the Atelier Cologne website you'll find more goodies, including a candle carousel ($42).

Diptyque’s holiday collection for 2021 is out. We start with “…a trio of limited edition scented candles with gold-coloured lids, decorations in actual gold paint and colours that call to mind malachite, lapis lazuli and cornelian.

I'm guessing a few of you might want one? A 27 day (December 5 to December 31) advent calendar from Chanel in biodegradable paper pulp packaging, and including a number of items (a snow globe, keychain, a tree ornament, a magnetic bookmark, a bracelet, etc) that aren't usually for sale. It's $825, and possibly sold out already but you could call your local Chanel counter.

A lemming for fans of No. 5: "To celebrate the holiday season and mark 100 years of the legendary fragrance, CHANEL presents N°5 Eau de Parfum dressed in sleek biodegradable packaging that outlines the iconic silhouette of The Classic Bottle. A truly elegant keepsake, this limited edition features a golden number 5 emblazoned on its label." $150 for 100 ml Eau de Parfum at Bloomingdales, where you'll also find the same set up (although in silver instead of gold) in No. 5 L'Eau.
