Lazy weekend poll ~ whispering to Santa (or the gift-giving entity of your choice), 2023 edition
Our sixteenth annual holiday gift poll. Here are the three questions:
What is the fragrance-related gift you’d most like to receive this year?
Let’s say you were going to ask for just one unsniffed fragrance this year, what would it be?
Are you giving any fragrance items for gifts this year, and if so, what?
I am not feeling decisive this morning, so I’ll add my answers in the comments later…

The daily lemming
A "Festive Holiday" candle trio from Parfums de Marly: "Winter Woods evokes the burning intensity of dark woods in the roasted facet of oil of cade, a textured leather accord, and enchanting guaiac wood. True to its name, Spiced Delight expresses notes of honey and cinnamon on a heart of amber combined with vanilla and tonka bean. Royal Pine, is like a promenade through the aromatic freshness of pine and cedar; two majestic, raw and intense woods that set on a warm base of cashmere and patchouli." Three x 75g, $150 at Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, Dillards, Saks, Harrods, Selfridges.
