Bunch o’ limited edition collector bottles 2018, part 6

Posted by Robin on 25 July 2018 13 Comments

More limited edition collector fragrance bottles, with the usual disclaimers: in most of these cases, the juice is unchanged, just the bottle is “special” (or not, as the case may be), and some of these may not be available in the US. Today’s post includes special edition bottles from Lalique, Estee Lauder, Yves Saint Laurent and Sisley.

From Lalique, the 2019 crystal limited edition of Lalique de Lalique, Naïade. “Draped in a veil that reveals her voluptuous figure, adorned with a delicate motif of scales… Is she a woman, a goddess, a mermaid? Reinvented by the house of Lalique, this contemporary embodiment of the eternal feminine, sensuous yet stately, breathes life into crystal. An exceptionally fine-detailed female statuette, the spectacular stopper of the 2019 Limited Edition is a true feat of glassmaking technique.” 100 ml Parfum, $1800…

Sisley Izia ~ perfume review

Posted by Robin on 14 February 2017 34 Comments

Sisley Izia brand image

I have no relationship with Sisley, as a (luxury) brand. I’ve never used the skincare. I used to adore Eau de Campagne, the first fragrance from my BFF perfumer Jean-Claude Ellena, but I always thought it was too expensive for what it was, and while I was worrying over the price, and stopping by a Sisley counter every so often to avail myself of another spray from the tester, they went and reformulated it and I stopped adoring it: problem solved.1 I never cared for Eau du Soir.

I know I sprayed Eau Tropicale on a blotter once but I’ve forgotten what it smelled like.
