L'Occitane goes retro for their Holiday 2023 spot.
The almost-daily lemming
If you were thinking of buying the large bottle of Diptyque L'Eau Papier, the holiday limited edition collector bottle is the exact same price as the "regular". "The limited-edition bottle has been revised in gold, with a transparent view that affords a glimpse of the nuances created by ink on paper. This light and fresh white-musk fragrance inspired by paper is composed of notes of steamed rice, luminous mimosa and a deep blonde wood accord that wears like a second skin." $175 for 100 ml at Nordstrom.
