It looks like I will be the last person on earth to smell Arquiste Él and Ella. All the more reason I need Arquiste's Nocturnal Green candle: "A jungly, earthy and green candle inspired by the nighttime gardens of 1970s jet-set Acapulco, the glamorous setting behind ÉL and ELLA eaux de parfum." $85 at Beautyhabit.
A lemming for bottle porn Friday: Oriza L Legrand's Oriza Bouquet room spray. I don't have a description for you, but it probably smells like flowers, right? €45 for 100 ml at the brand store.
The Loukoum room spray from By Kilian: "Loukom is an olfactory confectionery. The literal transcription of the turkish pastry. Loukoum is an overdose of Vanilla and glazed sugar scented with Orange blossom...Following KILIAN's eco-luxe philosophy, the home spray is perfect to refill both the scented paperweight and scented tassel, enabling the customer to enjoy these prestigious objects forever." (If you missed that paperweight, it is here.) $130 for 100 ml (ouch), also available in Song of Songs (oud, incense, amber), French Boudoir (tuberose) and Noir Ottoman (rosewood, musk) at Saks Fifth Avenue.
Hey, how come nobody told me?

Who doesn't need a pineapple candle? "Bring a touch of the tropics home with this colorful, pineapple-scented candle that fills any room with the scent of freshly cut fruit." $28 for 30 hour burn time at Nordstrom, where they also sell one on a stick for a garden candle. Plus, from the same brand (Sunnylife), there is a pineapple pool float, pineapple birthday candles, a pineapple wax lamp, pineapple string lights, a pineapple ukulele, a pineapple tambourine, fruit salad popsicle molds, and all sorts of other silly outdoor fruit things for a pool party.
