Play-Doh's Grown Up Scents pack is back in stock at Amazon, but it does not look like they'd be delivered before December, so be warned. Anyway, six 113g tubs of Play-Doh, in Overpriced Latte (coffee); Mom Jeans (clean denim); Grill King (smoked meats); Dad Sneakers (rubber); Spa Day (floral); and Lord of the Lawn (fresh cut grass). $12.

Maison Francis Kurkdjian's holiday fragrance, Mon Beau Sapin, in taper candles: "These limited-edition candles pay tribute to the Art de Vivre à la Française and to tableware, so dear to Francis Kurkdjian's heart. They come in an elegant box decorated with the Mon Beau Sapin pattern." 3 candles for $45 at Bloomingdales.

A lemming for fans of Byredo Lil Fleur, maybe: limited edition 100 ml bottles with colored caps. There are six colors, and the price is the same as for the regular black cap. At Selfridges in the UK (£170) or Niche Beauty in Germany (€187).

From Lalique, the 2021 crystal limited edition of Lalique de Lalique, Pivoine. “A truly impressive piece of crystal-making, “Pivoine” magnifies both the strength and grace of the flower. The peony’s blooming corolla forms the rounded body of the flacon. Its gently curved petals seem carved out of the satin-finish crystal, as though they were gouged from a rock by a sculptor. The edges and fine veins of each petal, in transparent crystal, enhance the refined floral motif, revealing the tender nuance of Lalique de Lalique Parfum, a blushing shade of peony pink. Like a delicate drop of dew crowning the heart of the flower, the satin crystal rounded stopper rises from the flacon’s neck. In the tradition of haute perfumery, each piece is sealed with a baudruchage and a gold thread around the collar.” 150 ml Parfum, $1800. (You can find a list of past editions here.)

In case you can't afford a bottle of Charmed, here's a relative bargain: the 2020 Pretty Purrfect Bubble Bath from Avon. "Avon is celebrating the holidays, Parisian style! Introducing our chic limited-edition collection full of vintage charm and romance. Bubbles and purrs…voilà! For purrfect pampering, pour 1-2 capfuls into running water and purr with delight. Cat-shaped bottle. Fruity floral scent." (Last year, they did pink and black.) Currently $34 for about 700 ml.
