So neat!
Agree, and love the name.
Oh no…Robin,your daily lemming will kill my budget!!!I love this.
Sharing is caring — ha!
I don’t understand; how accessible is the scent? Is it in a diffuser-type container that will permit you to smell it whenever it’s around your neck? In that case, does it come in a protective case that locks the scent in when you’re not wearing it? Or is this a heat-activated device? Or is it a spray or dab mechanism, and does the “pill” come apart? Why is it important that the flacon be hand-blown? (And for that matter, “hand-blown” seems like an odd phrase, given that the hand is not what is doing the blowing.) Maybe I’m missing something, but this seems a bit Prix Eaux Faux-y to me
It appears to be a small bottle of fragrance inside a pill shaped pendant, and yes, the pill comes apart. From what I can see, you open the pill, take out the glass bottle, apply fragrance, put it away. You can see a picture of the glass bottle here:

‘Hand blown’ doesn’t sound quite so impressive when it’s applied to a 0.5ml capsule.
You guys are way more focused on the ad copy than I was. I could care less if the bottle is hand blown — I liked the name and the pendant and the concept
But also, now that you’re making me focus on the ad copy, “precious quantity” is really the part that makes me laugh.
I like this feature, Robin.
After my fiasco trying to purchase Chanel “Coffret”, I feel virtuous viewing luxury items I have no interest in purchasing.
But I like looking ! LOL
Plus, this is a great song:
