Posted by Robin on 29 November 2023 5 Comments

From the Oriente Italiano collection at Ginori 1735, (pretty but spendy) home fragrances for Holiday 2023: "Two new fragrances explore new olfactory universes: Cuoio Rosso, with its fruity-woody notes, emanates a vibrant energy in the room. Vicolo Dell'Oro, with refreshing floral and musky notes, to accompany moments of pleasant relaxation." Neiman Marcus has a bunch of the items for pre-order, including the candles in 250g ($210) and 700g ($420), the candle vase (right rear, $880) and its refill (far right, 1520g, $190), the diffuser in 200 ml ($180) or 500 ml ($270), and the diffuser vase (shown above center, $1350). Also shown are the two scented stone boxes (which appear to be sold separately from the actual stones with diffuser oil) those are not at Neiman Marcus as of yet.

Posted by Robin on 29 November 2023 3 Comments

It seems as if nothing could stop this high-speed fragrance train, but behind the scenes, there are murmurs about skeletons soon coming to light that could disrupt the status quo. At the end of the year, the Modernization of Cosmetics Regulation Act of 2022, or MoCRA, will give American regulators at the FDA an unprecedented look at ingredient labels that, in some cases, have never seen the light of day stateside.
