The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 15 April 2026 3 Comments

The latest lip balm flavor from Swedish Dream is Lavender: "A sumptuous lavender butter base wraps lips in a rich, velvety layer of comfort. Gentle notes of creamy vanilla blend with sun-warmed lavender, inspired by coastal fields in Sweden where soft blooms sway in the sea air. Calm and quietly indulgent, it feels like a small moment of self-care—leaving lips nourished, supple, and beautifully at ease." $10 for 28g at Kala Style, where you'll also find the matching bar soap, hand cream and liquid hand soap.

With notes of cardamom, iris, ambergris, sandalwood, cedar and leather; 500 ml for $29 at Beautyhabit.

In case you have some really fancy notes you need to write: limited edition scented note paper from Bogue Profumo. "A project created to celebrate traditional craftsmanship, poetic gestures, and artistic inspiration. The handmade Amalfi paper by the Amatruda paper mill is infused with a dedicated fragrance and then dipped on one edge in an oil blend to create a scented decorative stripe." With notes of lemon, ylang, benzoin, geranium and castoreum-leather blend; $120 (ouch!) for 12 sheets and envelopes at Luckyscent.
