The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 27 March 2020 15 Comments

Tauer's L'Air du Désert Marocain in solid perfume: "The base is a skin nourishing and moisterizing solid mixture of organic, cold pressed jojoba oil, pure almond oil, vitamine E and white beewax. [...] The fragrance is more concentrated in the solid perfume than in the l'eau de toilette (15% versus 10%), thus a little bit will last a long while. [...] Lying on the bed, watching the moon rising over the sandy hills of the Saharan desert, he dreamt the fragrance of a Moroccan night." 15g for CHF 39.75, ships to Switzerland, US, France, Austria and Germany.

I probably want the Alabaster more, but I'd take a set of Buly 1803's "scented pencils" too. They're decorative sticks that you dip in the (included) fragrance oil, then "Choose wisely where to place your pencils so that their delicate scent is released fully and widely... in the most original way!" About €53.

Oedo-Koh's Tokyo Cherry Blossom incense: "Savor the joy of spring time, when young and old alike feel the allure of the outdoors, with the sweet, gentle scent of cherry blossoms. The custom of cherry blossom viewing took hold during the Edo Period. The somei-yoshino cherry tree, seen in groves throughout Japan today, was originally an ornamental garden variety raised in the village of Somei near Edo. Cherry blossom viewings were also an opportunity for Edo denizens to meet one another, present themselves, and perform; matching fancy kimonos were worn for the occasion, and people sang and danced to celebrate the coming of Spring." $18 for 60 sticks at Smallflower.

The 2020 limited edition Sakura tea from Mariage Frères: "To celebrate its 20th anniversary, the new SAKURA 2020 blends a magnificent green tea with a flowery aroma of cherry blossom sprinkled with delicate rose petals. Seductive, the cup swaddles the palate in never ending smoothness. The superb emerald canister is decorated with a shower of dazzling fuchsia flowers to evoke the magical poetry of cherry blossom season." 80g for €26.
