A lemming for fans of Kenzo Flower: the Memento limited edition collector bottle. "FLOWER BY KENZO is celebrating its twentieth anniversary and pays tribute to KENZO's Japanese origins. In a limited edition, the iconic Eau de Parfum takes on a new spectacular look, sewn with poppies. A throwback to the kimonos worn by young Japanese people during the "Seijin No Hi" ceremony which celebrates their coming of age." 50 ml Eau de Parfum for $69 at Smith + Caughey's in New Zealand.
Gorgeous!! I like this fragrance fine, not enough to collect special bottles though. I am very loyal to the 2005 Flower Oriental flanker with the big dose of incense and pepper. This needs a re-release!
That one was the best (of what I have tried, anyway) … although there was one other really good one that I will think of eventually, the name escapes me now.

Smith and Caugheys is one of the oldest department stores ( opened in 1880) still operating in the country. A bit grand in its day and known for fabric and hats. Good perfume now…they have Winter Palace.
Oh interesting, thanks Kanuka!
Fabric, hats and perfume: these are a few of my favorite things! And if they at least still have hats and perfume, I am sure it’s a worthy stop. Thanks, Kanuka, for the link!
I am a Flower fan, and since I own 100ml of the original, I must send Ms. Lemming back to her cage as I don’t need another drop, even in a beautiful bottle like this one. Plus, I did buy Winter Flowers on a whim once…before I really understood how long 100ml of perfume lasts…
Oh, I wonder if Winter Flowers is the other one I really liked?
Agree about 100 ml though! Don’t need another 100 ml bottle ever.
