The every-so-often lemming

Posted by Robin on 5 July 2023 4 Comments

Striking, with a price to match: the new candle collection from Alexander McQueen. Shown is Pagan Rose ("The Pagan Rose candle is based around the tension between fragile wild rose and earthy peat. The scented candle comes in a vessel made of black lacquered glass and a shiny gunmetal metal lid, coming together to create a final organic and architectural form. A blend of black mineral waxes and rapeseed wax is presented in a fully recyclable wooden crate"; the notes also include cognac) 200g for $395 at Alexander McQueen.

The limited edition packaging design features radiant poppy blossoms on the signature beveled bottle." $145 for 50 ml at Estée Lauder.

From Lush, honoring the new West Anderson film, Asteroid City shower gel: "Visit Asteroid City, Farm Route 6, Mile 75. Gaze in wonder at the bright blue skies that hang above desert canyons and a 5,000 year old meteorite crater. If you can't make the journey, then let Lush bring the golden days of kitsch and 1950s Americana into your shower. Starring the zesty and elevating oils of grapefruit and bergamot alongside a sweet, playful, and nostalgic blackcurrant fragrance, this cleansing shower gel's pastel-blue palette matches the sprawling desert skies found in the film." Limited edition, $25 for 290g at Lush USA.
