Posted by Robin on 29 February 2020 316 Comments

The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 29 February 2020 4 Comments

In case you missed last year's Raw Materials in Color collection from Diptyque, here's your next opportunity to snag a limited edition collector bottle: the Impossible Bouquets collection. "Six unreal floral arrangements that exist outside of time and season, digitally created by artist Bas Meeuws. Inspired by Flemish still lifes from the 17th century, they symbolize six diptyque floral fragrances and recall the work of the perfumer, who also creates impossible virtual bouquets—a vision of nature elevated to its finest." Shown is L'Ombre dans L'Eau; also available in Do Son, Eau Rose, Eau des Sens, Olene and Eau Moheli. $140 each for 100 ml.

I love to love
