The daily lemming

Guerlain's L’Heure Dorée, the second in the brand's series of limited edition bee bottles for Eid al-Fitr (see last year's Perle Impériale Millésime 2024): "In 2025, Guerlain repeats its Exceptional Rendezvous dedicated to the First Eid, a moment of sharing where tradition and modernity become one. For the 2025 Millésime, fine craftsmanship meets delicate fragrance. Draped in purple velvet and pearly sheen, it embodies the subtle alchemy between memory and audacity of which Guerlain has the secret. [...] The fragrance opens with luminous, spicy notes of cardamom before revealing a majestic rose, combining sweetness and passion. It is then enhanced by opopanine, Shalimar’s legendary amber accord, with sugar, coconut, and sandalwood." 2,095 were made, 125 ml Eau de Parfum plus 30 ml travel spray and funnel, $880.

It's the usual: I know nothing about this brand, I just like that jar. From Lazarus Douvos, the Rose 1845 candle. "Discover a limited-edition collectible: a handcrafted Milky-white enameled ceramic vessel by Maison Carron Paris, designed exclusively for Lazarus Douvos. Adorned with the brand's design, it pays homage to the ROSE 1845 story of love and romance. As the candle is lit, the soft, golden light dances across the room, seducing you to a moment where time stands still, and beauty is elevated to an art form." $320 (well then) for 400g at Neiman Marcus.

Issue 18 of Nez is out: "Whether on packaging, in bottles, nature or our brain, can we smell it in Technicolor? In this latest edition of Nez, titled The Color of Smells, the relationship between color and odor is explored from all perspectives for a fascinating look into the connections between the visual world and the olfactive one. Nez invites us to explore the world via our sense of smell, adopting a novel approach that encompasses art, literature, photography, science, history, gastronomy and perfumery to illustrate the essential role that olfaction plays in our lives." 160 pages, $39 at Luckyscent.
