Tuesday scent of the day 3/21

Posted by Robin on 21 March 2023 157 Comments

It’s Tuesday (and teapot-less, despite the bajillion teapots and tea cups and tea cozies done up in Morris prints). Also, International Fragrance Day, World Vermouth Day, the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, World Poetry Day and the International Day of Forests. What fragrance are you wearing?

My tea this morning is Numi Chinese Breakfast mixed with Upton Christmas Tea, and in my imagination I’m drinking it in the library at Kelmscott (below), while leafing through one of the many books Morris decorated (above). The perfect scent for such an undertaking seemed to be Paul Smith Story. Mine is no longer in great shape and I ought to toss it, but it’s one of my favorite bottles. Meanwhile, I’m wearing a single spritz and I might top it off with another vetiver after a bit.

Reminder: 3/24 is William Morris’ birthday…

The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 20 March 2023 4 Comments

From Obakki in Canada, an incense gift set: "We think these incense burners are the answer to all your incense needs - with a deep bowl that you can fill with sand or pebbles to create a heat resistant base and a high back wall that acts as a windbreak, these stunning pieces can do it all. Made OF Australia's signature series of functional stoneware ceramics - twice fired, once to full vitrification for durability and longevity, then again while sealed in special containers (called saggars) with native Australian flora and organics from indigenous fauna (organic materials like snakeskin, emu and crocodile eggshell, and goose feathers etc.)." Comes with a Waboku incense sampler ("The Hinoki (cypress) is a calm and soothing aroma, the Keyaki (delvoka) is a sweet and exotic scent, uplifting -- and the Kusonoki (camphor tree) is uplifting and powerful.") $131 USD.
