Happy Hermes Holidays

Rabbit + horse, in the (perfume-free) holiday video from Hermès.

The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 28 October 2022 3 Comments

From French artisanal chocolate company Maison Bonange, the Noir 70% Bio & Géranium bar: "The Porcelain Trianon was designed by Louis le Vau for the Sun King and included beds of rare and fragrant flowers. One can imagine that geranium flowers, very fashionable at that time, lined the paths of the gardens. In memory of this sumptuous building that disappeared in 1687, Maison Bonange offers you a tablet in which floral flavors are superimposed on the delicacy of a powerful and generous chocolate." 80g for $7 at Beautyhabit.

Back-to-school stress? Here's Bodha's Aromatherapy Eye-Pillow, with a washable linen cover available in 5 colors: "Breathe in the relaxing scent of lavender & chamomile flowers while gently engaging acupressure points to soften the delicate muscles around your eyes. The perfect complement to your beauty, meditation or sleep ritual. Made from soft washed linen and filled with our custom blend of lavender flowers, chamomile flowers & organic oat groats." Shown in blush linen, $48 at Bodha (or for $60, you can get a cashmere cover, or for less, you can still get the pretty ElizabethW eye pillows, although the price has gone up to $30).

The (almost) daily lemming

A lemming for Teapot Tuesday: Mrs. Rooiboson from Flowerhead Tea. "Meet Mrs. Rooiboson, a sweet and decadent blend. [...] Mrs. Rooiboson is a red rooibos blended with rose, spicy clove, cinnamon and bright local peppermint. It is warm and mildly sweet with a comforting aroma that will leave you satisfied." $20 at Beautyhabit.

The heat index is obviously affecting my lemmings, but wouldn't it be nice to have a pineapple fan sprayed with Ananas Fizz to wave around? This leather & wood model from Pubumésu is spendy ($137) and the spray would probably stain the leather, but it's a nice thought. (Also lemmable, the small purple octopus fan and the pink & violet peony fan.)
