The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 19 August 2019 9 Comments

Not my favorite solid perfume compact from Estée Lauder, but maybe it's yours: "Luxury jewelry designer and storyteller Monica Rich Kosann created this auspicious solid perfume compact exclusively for Estée Lauder. Each piece in this year's collection is inspired by tarot cards that represent strength, encouragement, trust, beauty, focus and confidence. You'll especially love the charming details, such as how the cage door opens.This limited edition compact is intricately designed, exquisitely crafted.A wonderful gift, it arrives in an elegant presentation box. Includes a velvety pouch to keep the compact safe." The Beautiful Bird Song Perfume Compact is $325 at Neiman Marcus.

We were just talking (in the comments) about solid twist up perfumes yesterday, and here is one I didn't know about: Bath & Body Works Kaleidoscope, launched last year as a liquid and now available in a twist up. "Amplify your one-of-a-kind personality & magnify your iridescent vibe with our Kaleidoscope Solid Perfume! Its compact size fits in your pocket, bag, center console & more, so you can freshen up with amazing fragrance whenever, wherever." 5.9g for $16.50, and also sold in their "One in a Million" fragrance, which I think is brand new.

Another Monica Rich Kosann solid perfume compact from Estee Lauder (more here and here): The Mad Hatter. "Every adventure requires a first step.

Includes a velvety pouch to keep the compact safe." What perfume is it? Who knows! $275 at Saks Fifth Avenue.

Posted by Robin on 21 August 2018 4 Comments

More limited edition collector fragrance bottles, with the usual disclaimers: in most of these cases, the juice is unchanged, just the bottle is “special” (or not, as the case may be), and some of these may not be available in the US. Today’s post includes special edition bottles from Guerlain, Carolina Herrera, Lancôme, Sisley and Estee Lauder.

From Guerlain, a collector edition of Shalimar Souffle de Parfum, paying homage to the flora and fauna of the Shalimar Gardens. 50 ml for €99 at Guerlain in France…
