The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 23 April 2024 2 Comments

From People I've Loved, the Rose Air Freshener: "Love Stinks. From the mustiest corners of our hearts, this air freshener makes a great gift for the romantic / anti-romantic person in your life. Hang it anywhere that needs a little freshening up—it smells like a rose!" $6 at Beautyhabit.

Another candle collab, this one involving our own Dr. Jessica (she consulted on the art history): the Hiroshige candle, created by Joya in collaboration with the Brooklyn Museum for the Hiroshige’s 100 Famous Views of Edo exhibit. Shown in Spring (at left, Cherry Blossom; "Sugared floral: soft cherry blossom leaves and petals, balanced by water moss, fruit buds, warm woods and honeyed resins") and Summer (at right, Plum Rain; "Shaded green tea blends with raw earth, spice, straw, petrichor and fresh-cut lumber to evoke hidden marshes and purifying showers dispatched by rolling black clouds"), also available in Autumn (Vermilion Maple) and Winter (Purple Wisteria). $28 each for 142g at Joya (where they still have that cronut candle for $32 if you need to bump yourself up to free shipping, plus a nice-looking Year of the Dragon jasmine candle that is a new lemming for me, $38) or directly from Brooklyn Museum.

You know if I wanted that one I want this one even more: L'Artisan Parfumeur's L'Ambre candle in a special limited edition for Cabana Magazine's 10th anniversary. "With notes of vanilla, cinnamon, and tonka bean, this candle is a true sensory delight. Hand-painted and crafted with care, this candle is an ode to Amber with its perfect blend of spice and sweetness." $250 for 400g at Cabana Magazine.

From Bienaimé, La Vie En Fleurs candle: "Made in the south of France, near Grasse, the candle is made from 100% vegetable wax. Sublimating the art of living, it is adorned with a delightful porcelain case shaped by excellent ceramists and delicately hand-painted. [...] Like a flight of flowers, this light and intoxicating fragrance opens the doors to an enchanted and happy universe. A real spring bouquet that delicately scents the air and makes you see life in pink." With raspberry, mandarin, peony, violet, rose, white musk, iris and heliotrope, $108 for 215g at Gardenheir in New York or €95 at Nose in France.

From Culti Milano, Ficum Blu Room Spray: "FICUM BLU is a celebration of the Italian lifestyle, represented as a basket brimming with ripe fruits: resting on a structured ground of Patchouli lie the citrusy note of Italian Lemon and Mandarin Oranges, together with the sweetness heart of Fig, whose softness is enhanced by notes of Jasmine. The vessels are inspired by the colors of this generous fruit; glass stained with the violet hues of its pulp, the blue flocked label has the velvety feel of its skin while it is embellished by gilt lettering reminiscent of its sweet juice." $48 for 100 ml at Twisted Lily.
