A 30 ml Wellbeing Fragrant Water and a 30 ml hand cream, (perfumath free!) from Roger & Gallet, shown in Feuille de Thé: "It all started with this feeling of comfort, this warmth that invades you, unfolds and relieves all tensions. Feuille de Thé is a smoky citrus infusion, enveloping and airy like the scent of Ceylon black tea, signed by Master Perfumer Alberto Morillas. Enriched with natural black tea extract with soothing properties, its trail opens with the aromatic freshness of Calabrian Lemon. Woody, smoky and refined, sandalwood warms the composition with an enveloping caress." Also available in Fleur d'Osmanthus, Cédrat, Néroli and Fleur de Figuier, $35 each at Smallflower.
From La Double J, the Taormina candle: "An ode to the rugged sensuality of the island of Sicily, this scent is a verdant medley of fresh clementine, exotic tamarind, orange and wild thyme, evocative of hot summer nights wandering the Medieval streets of Taormina. Accented with 18K gold, use the beautiful porcelain vessel as a bud vase, a makeup brush holder or simply as a gorgeous objet on your hallway mantle"; 320g for $180 at Bloomingdales.
From the new Lush collaboration with the movie Wicked, Glinda Upland body spray: "The beautifical fragrance of bright, floral rose oil intertwines with smooth, velvety notes of benzoin resin. Creamy vanilla and nutty notes of pistachio sweeten things up, to make you feel like you're floating over Oz." Additional notes include orris and sesame seed. £40 for 200 ml at Lush UK.
From Lolita Lempicka, Le Parfum in the annual holiday limited edition: "Le Parfum is one of those famous fragrances whose perfume is instantly recognizable. A gourmet and ultra-sensual accord of licorice and violet sublimated by a surprising note of anise, voluptuously highlighted by a cloud of musk. Surrounded by its garland of ivy leaves, enamelled in white and gold, the famous apple is adorned by a heart pierced with an arrow on a golden liquorice wood. To celebrate Christmas, Lolita Lempicka offers every year a new decor to its iconic bottle. These limited editions invite us to discover new chapters in the fairytale." At Lolita Lempicka, €117 for 100 ml.
