Bigarade Jasmin is a member of Fragonard‘s Garden Collection of perfumes but its character reminded me of another “garden” — Hermès garden range of fragrances.
On first spray, Bigarade Jasmin provides a scented blast of grapefruit, tangy orange peel and indolic jasmine aromas. The scent is brisk but summery…
From Olivina Men, Blackberry Chai lip balm: "Staying hydrated is a great way to protect your lips. But sometimes conditions call for a little extra help. Olivina Men's certified organic lip balms lock in moisture and shield lips from harsh environmental elements with olive oil and cocoa butter." On markdown for $3.50 at The King of Styling.

From Baudelaire, Calendula Honey Soap: "This honey soap is made with a vegetable base and is infused with calendula and comfrey for hardworking hands. Now made in the sovereign nation of Vermont. Triple-milled for a luxurious, long-lasting bar with a rich, creamy lather." $6 at Smallflower, where they have the same bar in Goat's Milk Honey, Pure Honey and Royal Jelly Honey.
A potential cheap thrill? Formula 10.0.6 Smooth Me Over Moisturizing Body Wash Grapefruit + Coconut: "Formula 10.0.6 Smooth Me Over Moisturizing Body Wash is a gentle, every day, bubbly wash that won’t strip your skin of its natural moisture. Sweet grapefruit nourishes, while tropical coconut provides natural hydration." $6.99 for 300 ml at Target.
Garnier introduced their organic skincare line, Garnier Bio, in 2019, but it still isn't officially distributed in the US and I have no idea if there are plans. If it ever gets here, my two top wishes: the Orange Blossom Micellar Water (£6.99 at Super Drug) and the Organic Lemongrass Gel Wash ($8 at Look Fantastic), both of which you can find in Canada, or really nearly anywhere but here. There are also Melissa and Cornflower Micellar Waters, a Thyme Toner, Lavandin Eye Cream, Lemongrass moisturizer, Argan Mist, and more.
