The (almost) daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 28 November 2019 6 Comments

A classic: Youth Dew Bath Oil. "In 1953, Estee Lauder introduced Youth-Dew, a scented bath oil that doubled as a perfume, and the world of fragrance was forever changed. Until then, women relied on the men in their lives to give them perfume as a special gift. But Youth-Dew was created for women to buy for themselves...and they did. Even today, its captivating, sexy romance ensures that this true classic remains a favorite. Pour out a few drops as you draw your bath for a relaxing treat, or simply wear it as a fragrance." $45 for 60 ml at Saks.

    I was going to say this was the scent of my best friend’s mother in high school, but probably my whole generation can say that!

    Many ladies in my family wore this-I love the association and memories. I really love Youth Dew.

      I liked it when they released it in the old school blue bottle, but this one does look nice too.

    I’m very sad that the bath oil version doesn’t exist in France anymore.

      I could be wrong, but I think it is hard to find here too except at the holidays.
