The (almost) daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 5 May 2022 Leave a Comment

From Naturopathica, the Chill Chocolate Vine Stress Candle: "This elegant, deliciously scented candle, made from natural, vegan soy wax, comforts the senses with relaxing accord of rich dark chocolate and sweet honey, rounded by a warm subtle undernote of vanilla to chill the mind and relax the body." $48 at Neiman Marcus. (There is also a diffuser, stress mask, detox toner and eye balm.)

The Tuberose & Jasmine candle from Cereria Molla 1899 in Spain. "Exquisite fresh fragrance with green notes and powerful Floral heart, where the Orange Blossom, Jasmine and Narcissus bring back memories of the Andalusian floral patios." Available at Candle Delirium in 7 wick ($600), 4 wick ($390) or 3 wick ($90). (The 2 wick shown is $40 and out of stock, as is the 100 ml room spray for the same price.)

Too spendy for me personally, but one of the better looking car diffuser devices I've seen: "Acqua di Parma meets Poltrona Frau, a symbol of leather know-how, research and design. Together, they now present the Car Diffuser, an object of design conceived in every detail by the award-winning design duo GamFratesi, to offer an enveloping multi-sensory experience and transform every trip into an unparalleled experience." Available in several colors and more than several fragrances, shown is the yellow ($175 for the case only at Neiman Marcus), which I'll take with the Aperitivo in Terrazza scent ($65; "The solar Italian elegance captured in a fragrance made of sparkling citruses where lime, blood orange and grapefruit together with a heart of gentian absolute followed by the warmth of cinnamon from Ceylon evoke the well known bitter accord.")

Two candles from Lladro's Echoes of Nature collection, featuring (gorgeous) porcelain lids: at left, On The Prairie ("a fresh essence of bergamot, basil, thyme and vetiver"); at right, Tropical Blossoms ("a floral perfume of Italian mandarin and frangipani with tropical hues of benzoin"). The 200g candles are $60 each at Lladro (or, Saks has the green one for $45 during the current Friends & Family promotion, and they also have this extravaganza marked down to $176).
