The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 12 November 2019 11 Comments

In case you happen to have a hefty gift certificate to Buly 1803 and can't decide what to do with it, here's La Douzaine Parfumée, a discovery set with twelve 10 ml sprays: "All the chords are easily harmonised together or individually impregnated directly on your body. Cheeks, neck, hair and beard are soaked in the essence of your choice. From the first twelve hours until noon to another ones until midnight, there will always be a scent surrounding to impress you. The Scented Dozen is a rhythmic and Parisian prelude to your next olfactory strolls." €167.

What would you do with an extra €10,000? Here's one option: a liter of Guerlain Santal Royal, housed in one of the 22 numbered collector bottles decorated by artist Tarek Benaoum to celebrate the fragrance's 5th anniversary.

The handsomely done 2019 Artist Edition of Acqua di Parma Colonia (you can see 2018's here): "Acqua di Parma celebrates the Holiday Season with Gio Pastori...A paper-cut artist with a strong sense of colour, Gio has drawn inspiration from the famous advertisements of Depero, interpreting in his own way the elegant essential nature of Acqua di Parma." £155 for 180 ml at Harvey Nichols, and the same design can be found on a candle and diffuser, and on all the brand's outer packaging for holiday 2019.

If winter is coming (and I do see signs) I'd just as soon have it as green as possible. "Winter Green by Dasein Fragrance makes its debut for the winter/holiday 2019 season. Winter Green has been produced in a limited run so be sure to get your hands on a bottle before this beauty goes into hibernation. The scent was created as a collaboration between Dasein’s nose Sam Rader and fellow indie perfumer Josh Meyer of Imaginary Authors. Winter Green unisex fragrance features notes of wild mint, pink peppercorn, sambac, evergreen needles, pomelo zest and beeswax." $125 for 50 ml at Twisted Lily.
