The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 13 November 2024 4 Comments

A 30 ml Wellbeing Fragrant Water and a 30 ml hand cream, (perfumath free!) from Roger & Gallet, shown in Feuille de Thé: "It all started with this feeling of comfort, this warmth that invades you, unfolds and relieves all tensions. Feuille de Thé is a smoky citrus infusion, enveloping and airy like the scent of Ceylon black tea, signed by Master Perfumer Alberto Morillas. Enriched with natural black tea extract with soothing properties, its trail opens with the aromatic freshness of Calabrian Lemon. Woody, smoky and refined, sandalwood warms the composition with an enveloping caress." Also available in Fleur d'Osmanthus, Cédrat, Néroli and Fleur de Figuier, $35 each at Smallflower.

From Lolita Lempicka, Le Parfum in the annual holiday limited edition: "Le Parfum is one of those famous fragrances whose perfume is instantly recognizable. A gourmet and ultra-sensual accord of licorice and violet sublimated by a surprising note of anise, voluptuously highlighted by a cloud of musk. Surrounded by its garland of ivy leaves, enamelled in white and gold, the famous apple is adorned by a heart pierced with an arrow on a golden liquorice wood. To celebrate Christmas, Lolita Lempicka offers every year a new decor to its iconic bottle. These limited editions invite us to discover new chapters in the fairytale." At Lolita Lempicka, €117 for 100 ml.

Two more Estee Lauder solid perfume compacts, these done just for Harrods. At left, Harrods 175 Anniversary Edition: "The collectable design is shaped like our Knightsbridge store, with the numbers at the front nodding to our 175th-anniversary commemorations. What’s more, it opens to reveal the beauty brand’s Beautiful fragrance, where fresh florals and zesty citrus meet warm woods for a bright scent", £350. At right, the annual Harrods Bear for 2024, "A gift from Estée Lauder and Harrods to you, the Harrods Bear solid perfume compact is part of the beauty brand’s festive range. The design is collectable in more ways than one, as it also celebrates 175 years of our store’s history. Featuring the Beautiful fragrance inside – where fresh florals and zesty citrus meet warm woods – it promises to be an accessory you’ll cherish for years to come", £310.
