Locked Up

Ok so I didn't actually get locked-up over the Christmas break.
But if ever I were to be locked-away, please oh-please use this Hermès contraption. As we are well aware nothing signifies pure, unadulterated luxury more than absolutely anything Hermès - this limited edition refillable atomizer is the perfect example.

Modeled after the iconic 'H' padlock, the atomizer can be filled with one of four signature Hermès smells (of which Parfum des Merveilles is my favorite). Oh and it's also travel-sized.

Sweet Smoke

Gifting fragrance has always been entirely hit-or-miss.

Let's face it, people get personal about their 'signature' scent - making it near impossible to successfully gift (even if you love it and are convinced they will too). 

All I have to say is thank god for Tom Ford's Private Blend collection. I was recently given the Tobacco Vanille and it is with smokey-sweet enthusiasm that I report I am a fan. A real fan - think crazed football fan, OK? Perhaps it's because I love the smell of burning cigars, or maybe it's because I can't get over the bottle. Inspired by a chess piece, it looks superb on my shelf - check-mate indeed.

At anyrate I'm into it, and you should be too.

Seda France

Remember what I said about finding the perfectly scented candle?

Well, this just might be it. Seda France - the purveyor of finely fragranced candles continually produces beautifully packaged home fragrances that are delightful.

I was recently gifted the limited-edition Anniversaire - which boosts delicate notes of citron, heliotrope and geranium that are complemented by more robust oakmoss and patchouli flavors. Also the turret-style packaging (complete with tassel!) is pretty spectacular.
