I am not really a fan of Jo Malone Wild Bluebell ("Vibrant sapphire blooms in a shaded woodland. The delicate sweetness of dewy bluebells suffused with lily of the valley and eglantine and a luscious twist of persimmon", but isn't that cute? The limited edition is shown above in 100 ml ($144 at Macy's) but you can also find it in 30 and 50 ml, and there's a matching candle.
A lemming for fans of Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb? The Haute Couture edition: "To celebrate Flowerbomb's 15th Anniversary, Viktor&Rolf designed a sumptuous rose gold dress for the iconic Flowerbomb bottle made of thorny branches and flowers. Created with state of the art 3d printing techniques, this limited edition is one of only 15 pieces in the world. The bottle is contained in a luxurious calligraphied case hand numbered in rose gold. An object of pure desire for the most precious and explosive fragrance." $2500 for 50 ml Eau de Parfum, at Viktor & Rolf.
Two Lunar New Year collector editions, either of which would work fine for Christmas too: at left, Lunar New Year Lazy Sunday Morning from Maison Margiela, 100 ml for $130, and at right, Lunar New Year Love Osmanthus Absolue Pure Perfume from Atelier Cologne, $140 for 100 ml. Both are at Sephora.
Get it while you can? "Our once-a-year fragrance, here just for the holidays. Hugs skin in layers of warmth and brightness...Layer on the bright, sparkling scent of Clinique Wrappings™ Perfume Spray and Body Smoother lotion for the ultimate luxe fragrance. In some of her favorite notes, from sage to jasmine to deep woods. Get it while it’s here." 25 ml Perfume Spray + 100 ml Body Smoother, currently marked down to $33 at Clinique.
The Regeneration gift set from Lush UK (yes, another Lush lemming!): "The perfumes in this gift set each use a regenerative ingredient from around the world, each with a story to tell. From the Tonka in Vanillary to the Rose in Rose Jam, Jasmine in Lust or Patchouli in Lord Of Misrule. Wear a story with a spritz of these fine fragrances." Four 15 ml bottles, £49. (More choices: the Retrospective set has Pansy, Dirty, Breath Of God and Karma for the same price, or if you have £99, you can get the Renaissance set with Sappho, Nero, Confetti and Frangipani.)
