Posted by Robin on 27 February 2020 Leave a Comment

A lemming while waiting in the airport: the Tarmac candle from Antica Farmacista. "A flinty tarmac accord of cedar, cypress and black pepper is warmed by creamy sandalwood and earthy oak. Capturing the take off, the horizon and the freedom of flight." $46 for 255g.

Antica Farmacista's refillable, nickel-plated Car Diffuser clips on to your car's air vent, and is available now at Nordstrom in Prosecco ("Top notes of satsuma citrus balance with subtle floral notes of muguet. Apricot and passionfruit complement the sweetness of sugared blackcurrant. A crisp scent celebrating the sparkling effervescence of prosecco and champagne.") or Santorini ("A medley of crisp citrus and green notes is artfully paired with exotic spice and natural wood essences. Top notes of vibrant Italian bergamot, sweet verbena and fresh vetiver are enhanced by the subtle sweetness of rosewood, warm sandalwood and aromatic cardamom."). $34.

A floral mélange built on notes of effervescent daphne, orange blossom and honeysuckle. Sweet meyer lemon and dewy green notes add an element of sparkle while Baltic amber and a clean white musk accord add a soft finish to the brilliance of daphne, evoking memories of springtime." $28 for 100 ml at Nordstrom.
