The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 4 May 2018 9 Comments

Fans of Chanel No. 5 L'Eau might need one or both: On Hand Cream ("This limited-edition cream is a novel, sensual way to nourish and delicately scent the hands and body.", $55 for 50 ml) or All-Over Spray ("A generous and portable scented spray to use anytime of day to refresh and lightly revive the notes of the modern scent.", $60 for 150 ml). At Saks Fifth Avenue (and other stores as well).

    Excellent! After just breaking out the No. 5 L’ Eau yesterday with the warmer weather, these couldn’t be more perfectly timed! The all-over spray has been added to the top of my list of spring and summer perfume purchases, but although I would dearly love it, 55$ for a hand cream is a bit steep for me. Thanks for the heads up : )

      That hand cream egg is cute, but yeah, not a bargain.

    I love L’eau.

    Why use an all over spray and not just reapply the edt?

      I am guessing it’s aimed at young people who are just more used to light body sprays than “perfumes”.

        Exactly. Plus it’s cheaper and just the thing for after a cooling shower!

    Pardon the blasphemy, but I think maybe perchance the people at Chanel has been inspired by the purse-friendly packaging of EOS hand lotion.

    Not that I blame them. A smart and tactile bottle.

    When I tested l’Eau, I thought that the perfume itself was perfect for summer- so pretty, sheer and rosy. The body spray would be perfect for young people who want something ‘fancy’ BUT want something sheer and light. The lotion is a pass at the price- a bath oil would have been a better deal.

    I need instructions on how to uncap the hand cream without the cream splurting out.
