The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 14 December 2023 7 Comments

From Bruno Fazzolari's Fzotic brand, Opoponax bar soap: "Bruno Fazzolari created a rare soap using a limited quantity of genuine opoponax resin that they acquired. The soap has a rich, earthy fragrance balanced with sweet tonka bean and fresh cypress. Opoponax resin has been traditionally used in skincare and incense and is known for its calming properties. The soap includes their proprietary blend of botanical oils and clay, such as shea butter and apricot kernel oil, leaving your skin soft and delicately moisturized. This huge shower bar weighs in at nearly half a pound. " $18 for 200g at Smallflower.

Not really a lemming for me personally, but if you're a fan of Cartier La Panthère, the hair mist is now in the fragrance's new packaging design (if you loved the old — and I loved it so much I bought the Eau de Parfum unsniffed — you might want to purchase your preferred concentration soon). $67 for 50 ml at Saks Fifth Avenue. (And you can see an image of the new Eau de Parfum bottle at Vogue Philippines.) (And adding...that article also makes it clear that the fragrance has been reformulated "...toward a fully plant-based solution".)
