From Cacao & Cardamom Chocolatier in Houston, the Easter Collection box: "Introducing our NEW Easter Collection with fresh and fruity bon-bons, inspired by the new growth and blossoming of nature during this spring. From the vibrant and tangy Yuzu Poppyseed to the subtle and delicate Apricot Jasmine, our bunny bon-bons are the perfect way to celebrate Easter. Flavors may include: Strawberry Mint, Yuzu Poppyseed, Orange & Oregano, Lemongrass Ginger, Apricot Jasmine, or Carrot Cake." $55.
For the Easter Basket? From Maison Bouche, violet flavored dark chocolate flowers (they have them in milk chocolate too), box of three for $12 at Beautyhabit.
No, it's not perfume, but I'll take a Year of the Dragon Hat Box from La Maison du Chocolat anyway: "Celebrate the 2024 Year of the Dragon with the finest chocolate. For this Lunar year we selected the perfect combination of sweet and savory pieces that are sure to please when gifted, with company, or by yourself." With Gesture Gift Box 16 pieces, Flavored Truffle Gift Box 13 Pieces, Madagascar Tonique 67% Bar and Passion Vibrante Bar, all in a red hatbox, $275 (well, let's hope the dragon is feeling prosperous).
A (not perfume) lemming for Gingerbread House Day (for those of us far too lazy to make an actual Gingerbread House): the limited edition Gingerbread chocolate bar from Compartés in Los Angeles. "Compartés' Gingerbread chocolate bar is studded with golden spicy gingerbread cookies and crystallized ginger pieces on a bed of Compartés decadent gourmet dark chocolate. Perfect for a holiday stocking stuffer or, better yet, just to snack on as a gift to yourself. It's the best of all things gingerbread and chocolate crammed into one delicious holiday bar." $12.95 at Ministry of Scent.
Happy Friday and happy World Chocolate Day! Our community project for today: wear a perfume with a chocolate note, with bonus credit if chocolate (or something related to chocolate) is in the name. If you don’t have a perfume with a chocolate note, partial credit for wearing something with a note you like to eat with chocolate.
What fragrance did you pick? As always, do chime in with your scent of the day even if you’re not participating in the community project.
I’m in Sarah Jessica Parker Covet. (And a little PSA: it’s been a busy week and I am terribly behind. I have not even read Wednesday’s damage poll yet. I hope to catch up by Sunday…)
