It's not my personal lemming, but from the comments to yesterday's poll, looks like it might be many of yours. The new limited edition "drop bottle" of 2016's Chanel No. 5 L'Eau, inspired by that "drop of Chanel No. 5" Marilyn Monroe reportedly wore to bed. Due to launch mid-month, read more in Chanel’s New No. 5 L’Eau Drop Bottle Was Inspired by Marilyn Monroe at Vogue.

A cute, perfumath free 30 ml size of Roger & Gallet Fleur de Figuier: "This soothing fragrance combines the warmth of fig pulp with the refreshing shade of its leaves, complemented by a touch of bittersweet grapefruit." $26.95 at Hampton Court, where you'll also find the same size/price in Rose and Jean Marie Farina. (Roger & Gallet now makes all their fragrances in 30 ml, if you can find them.)

A bargain, as these things go: a discovery coffret of three 5 ml roll-ons (your choice!) from French niche brand Divine for €39. (Unfortunately, if you want free shipping you'll have to spend a lot more.)
