The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 29 February 2020 4 Comments

In case you missed last year's Raw Materials in Color collection from Diptyque, here's your next opportunity to snag a limited edition collector bottle: the Impossible Bouquets collection. "Six unreal floral arrangements that exist outside of time and season, digitally created by artist Bas Meeuws. Inspired by Flemish still lifes from the 17th century, they symbolize six diptyque floral fragrances and recall the work of the perfumer, who also creates impossible virtual bouquets—a vision of nature elevated to its finest." Shown is L'Ombre dans L'Eau; also available in Do Son, Eau Rose, Eau des Sens, Olene and Eau Moheli. $140 each for 100 ml.

A lemming for fans of Twilly d'Hermès, the Eau Poivrée flanker in the Twilly Charming edition: "Choose the new limited edition of Charming Twilly, the Hermès girls' lucky charm. A coral-coloured little four-leaf clover hangs from the silk tie as a distinctive sign. Freedom of style is worn as a charm!" In 85 ml at World Duty Free. (You can still find the 2019 version of "regular" Twilly d'Hermès with a horseshoe charm at Saks in the US or Myer in Australia.)

The good: Tom Ford Oud Wood in 30 ml! The bad: it's still $148. A suggestion: maybe go to 15 ml? At Neiman Marcus.

A lemming for those of you who were drooling over the Jo Malone Lavenderland collection: "A Nordstrom-exclusive, limited-edition set with Wisteria & Lavender Cologne, Lavender & Musk Pillow Mist and an English Pear & Freesia Candle." You also get a lavender pouch to cart it all around. $145 at Nordstrom.

Enough to make me care about Valentine's Day: the Frédéric Malle Roses Coffret, with 7 ml bottles of Lipstick Rose, Portrait of a Lady, Promise, Rose & Cuir and Une Rose ($175 at Bloomingdales). And why not throw in one of the newly (and betterly) repackaged perfume guns in Rosa Rugosa (€140 for 450 ml at Frédéric Malle in the EU)?
