In case the announcement about Nina Ricci's Les Sorbets made you hungry, get yourself over to France and pick up a limited edition Nina gelato at Amorino, with raspberry, lemon, mandarin and a hint of jasmine, plus macaron and mini chocolate apple. Available from 15 April to 30 June. (via ladepeche.fr)
A reasonably priced rose shower gel in case you're tired of shelling out for Rose Jam: Yves Rocher Argan Rose Hammam. "For an intoxicating oriental-inspired escape in the bath or shower, our Botanical Beauty researchers have selected and combined two mythical organically-grown ingredients from Morocco: Argan extract and Rose." $4.50 for 200 ml or $8 for 400 ml. The matching body lotion is $10 for 390 ml, and there is also hand cream and shower oil.
Two of the newer scents from the reasonably priced hair and body care brand Love Beauty and Planet: Coconut Milk & White Jasmine (left) and Turmeric & Tonka (right). Other fairly recent additions include Rosehip & Patchouli and Indian Lilac & Clove Leaf. Do comment if you've smelled any of them!
I don't use bath bombs, and I'm not going to start, but I love looking at them. Lush dropped a bunch of new ones this week (although some of what I'm showing above is old). Tops on my list: Bom Perignon (above left, citrus), Lucky Cat (center, jasmine absolute, neroli & ylang ylang), Blackberry (top right, berry & olibanum), Rose Bombshell Egg (bottom left) and Hi Ho Silver (bottom right, citrus & olibanum). Also worth a peek, Fairy Jasmine, which sounds like Silky Underwear (not shown, jasmine, vetiver & ylang ylang).
I am told summer might come? Citronella incense by Fredericks & Mae, six cones for $18 at Beautyhabit.
