PSA: the swapmeet is open through Tuesday! Meanwhile, it’s almost May so it must be time for the spring reading poll (or, if you’re reading this on Sunday, rabbit, rabbit, rabbit and welcome to May).
Please recommend a great book to add to our reading lists, and tell us what fragrance we should wear while reading it. Or, as always, just talk about something else.
What I’ve read since our winter reading poll…
Indie natural line Providence Perfume Co has launched Jadeite, a new limited edition spring/summer fragrance for 2022…
Lancôme has launched La Vie Est Belle Domaine de la Rose, a new limited edition flanker to 2012’s La Vie Est Belle. La Vie Est Belle Domaine de la Rose is named for the brand’s ecological horticultural site in Grasse, Le Domaine de la Rose, which will open to the public next year…
Salvatore Ferragamo has launched Arte Orafa and Orto Delle Spezie, two new fragrances in the Tuscan Creations collection. (And see also: E Pur Si Muove, announced yesterday…)
Caudalie launched Vinofresh, their aluminum-free natural deodorant, last year, and I still haven't tried it — raise your hand if you have! "Take care of your underarms while combating odors thanks to the new natural Vinofresh deodorant. Its unique formula is made up of 98% natural origin ingredients and is guaranteed aluminium-free, alcohol-free, silicone-free and baking soda-free. Effective for 24 hours, its stick format is easy to use: it acts in one go without leaving traces or blocking pores. This natural 24 hour deodorant is powered by Organic fresh-scent Eucalyptus and prebiotic Grape Water to control odor, hydrate, and support a healthier underarm flora." Reviews are mixed, as is usually the case with natural deodorants, but I'm wondering if it's any better than what I already have (Malin + Goetz Eucalyptus Deodorant). $15.
