The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 16 November 2019 7 Comments

Thanks to a kind tip from Pyramus, I already have a tube on the way: Marvis Black Forest toothpaste. "Inspired by the rich German delicacy, this toothpaste combines the sweet taste of cherry and chocolate with fresh mint to create an inventive flavor. Unlike the cake, the toothpaste helps prevent cavities by removing plaque and tartar to give you strong and healthy teeth." I paid $10.50 for 75 ml at Fendrihan, but this morning they appear to be sold out. Other new flavors you can see if you can get your hands on: Anise Mint, Orange Blossom (yes, I bought that too) and Sweet & Sour Rhubarb.

From Chanel's Les Exclusifs collection, Huile Douce: "A gentle hair and body oil that layers with any LES EXCLUSIFS DE CHANEL fragrance for the ultimate scent experience. The delicate, non-greasy formula absorbs quickly, comforting skin and creating the look of healthier, smoother hair. This exceptionally sensorial oil combines citrus notes and White Musk with a Jasmine floral accord to subtly scent hair and skin." $180 for 250 ml. (oops, stick with the soap?)

Chanel No. 19 bar soap. I congratulate whomever came up with that perfect shade of green. "A luxurious bath soap scented with the floral, woody and green notes of N°19. A perfect balance between the vibrant, green notes of Galbanum and the soft, powdery notes of Iris." $26.

In case, like me, you don't happen to have a hefty gift certificate to Buly 1803, here's a cheaper alternative to yesterday's lemming (and possibly a good stocking stuffer): Scented Soap Sheets. "Buly 1803's soaps are ideal for when you're on-the-go - just slip them into your bag and use as you would a regular bar. Each single-use cellulose sheet dissolves on contact with water, creating a substantial lather without any residue." (I used to buy the Crabtree & Evelyn soap leaves, they were lovely.) Available at Net-a-Porter, in Damask Rose, Scottish Lichen or Orange Blossom, $17 for a pack of 40.
