Dawn Spencer Hurwitz has launched December, her holiday-themed fragrance for 2010:
It's Holiday time again...oh, yes, it is December. December evokes for me many of the very best ‘smells’ of the season: pomanders, gingerbread, the long walk in the woods to find the perfect Christmas tree, and traditional incense (I call it 'gnostic incense') made of frankincense and myrrh. It brings the Holidays home for me.
The notes include clove, galbanum, ginger, spices, sweet orange, balsam fir, rose, pinecone accord, Atlas cedar, frankincense, myrrh, tolu balsam, tree moss and vanilla.
Dawn Spencer Hurwitz December is available in Parfum Oil or Eau de Parfum in a variety of formats and sizes, $25-95. (via dshperfumes)
I want a sample. There’s a holiday sale still going on there, too – 20% off with code ‘holiday10’…
… good thing I hadn’t ordered my Oeillets Rouges yet.
It sounds great. I really liked the 2009 holiday scent.
I have to admit – these notes sound wonderful. I need to revisit my samples of her scents. They didn’t quite work, but I feel like her stuff needs to be lived in for a while.
Not all of them work for me either, but it’s a huge line!
Mmmmm, sounds wonderful. Oh oh! No more obsessions allowed (running away………..).
HA…good luck!
huge line….but some stuff you just gotta try! I am luxuriating in her Cardamom & Khyphi again today….mmmm. My hands get cold when I drive…hate to wear gloves….I put some of the oil on the backs of my hands (figured: hands are dry, it’s oil , why not? Got in the car…turned those two small heat vent things on either side of the steering wheel so hot air would be directed right onto my cold hands….well! The hot air blowing on my scented hands , warmed the oil and created a steady stream of incense rich air right at me….I was breathing so deeply I realized I was beginning to hyperventilate….on the expressway….going 70mph….okay, closer to 80mph. 😉
LOL…sounds like dangerous stuff!
indeed! 😉
Hey, where’s that Like button? 🙂
What a description, sounds like a spectacular drive!
This sounds great! This line is so big, I’m always overwhelmed when I think about exploring it, so I haven’t yet.
