My latest Lush want: Groovy Kind of Love shower gel. "Lost your mojo? Bring it back with this refreshing twist of bergamot and freshly squeezed orange juice that will get you feeling groovy, baby! Take a trip into the shower and feel the flower power as alluring ylang ylang and rose petal infusion soothes your body and mind, whilst rosewood tones the skin to leave you radiating positive vibes." It is available in the UK; in the US so far we have the bath bomb only.
Seduced — almost — once again by the combination of cute old-school packaging and a reasonable price. Panier Des Sens Rose Geranium Eau de Toilette: "Heady and tangy, the leaf of the Mediterranean flower joyfully expresses light and luminous top notes. Geranium absolute harmonizes with the delicate freshness of notes of rose and peony, sublimated on a background of enticing and bewitching hints of white musk. An intense powdery floral sillage married to the green facet of geranium." $35 for 50 ml, also available in Orange Blossom and Precious Jasmine, at Beautyhabit. There is also a Rose Geranium travel set at the Panier des Sens website, with 50 ml each of Shower gel and Body lotion, plus a 30 ml Hand cream and a 3.5 ml sample of the Eau de Toilette, in a travel pouch decorated much like the canister shown above, on mark down for $16.10.

It's perfect for year-round use. Aesop product formulations use botanical and scientifically validated man-made ingredients of the highest quality." With pink grapefruit, orange and lemon; $35 for 120 ml or $97 for 500 ml, at Nordstrom.
I don't love the scent and I don't love the bottle, but if you've got an extra €2000 lying around and you love Miss Dior, here's the 2019 Love Edition, with embroidery on a gray satin ribbon inspired by designer Maria Grazia Chiuri's dresses. 47 bottles were made.
