I'm pretty sure I need almost everything Penny Frances Apothecary makes. First on my list is the Fleur de Lune Jasmine Parfum Oil: "Beneath an ochre moon, coconut palms dance in the fragrant night air. Indulge yourself in the bewitching aroma of the tropics. Night flowering jasmine perfume oil, created with jasmine sambac, the exotic aroma of the tropics, gently infused in coconut and jojoba oils." $42 for 10 ml at Beautyhabit. (Second on my list: Rose Geranium & Hibiscus Botanical Mist.)
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 Chanel and Ferragamo, which don’t really add up to a “bunch” but you did not want to wait to see that Chanel bottle, did you?
Coming from Chanel in November, limited edition red bottles of No. 5 L’Eau and No. 5, both in 100 ml. I do not know the price or how widely they will be distributed…

Another Monica Rich Kosann solid perfume compact from Estee Lauder (more here and here): The Mad Hatter. "Every adventure requires a first step. Luxury jewelry designer and storyteller Monica Rich Kosann created this whimsical solid perfume compact exclusively for Estée Lauder. Each piece in this year's collection is inspired by some of the most beloved fairytales, evoking memories and wonder from our childhood. A wonderful gift, it arrives in an elegant presentation box. Includes a velvety pouch to keep the compact safe." What perfume is it? Who knows! $275 at Saks Fifth Avenue.
Bvlgari's Le Gemme Collection can now be found in limited edition hand blown Murano bottles, limited to 50 bottles for each fragrance. Shown is Amarena: "Amarena Eau de Parfum is inspired by the pink Tourmaline, a symbol of love and sensuality that is reflected in the pairing of two powerful floral scents - rose and tuberose. Master-Perfumer Daniela Andrier carefully pairs the innocence and fresh quality of rose petals with the enveloping richness of addictive tuberose." £1,900 for 100 ml at Harrods.
