- For the gourmet-loving friend:
Perfume & Chocolate: Canadian chocolatiere Rachel Sawatzky of
CocoaNymph, collaborated with artisanal Canadian niche perfumer Ayala Moriel to make fine Belgian dark chocolate bars beautifully designed to match three perfumes from the latter's collection:
Espionage (64% cocoa with smoked salt, jasmine & juniper),
Guilt (64% cocoa with orange blossom, blood orange & wild oranges) and
Roses et Chocolat (72% cocoa with rose, saffron & chilli). You can find the marching scents
on Ayala Moriel's official page. And for cuddly evenings around the fire I highly recommend
her Sahleb, while for the
mysterious, bewitching femme fatale you hide inside,
Film Noir seems tailor-made!
A Perfume Organic hosts free shipping through January 2011, making all your holiday last-minute gifts easy to cram into your schedule. Their
Mejica is the latest fragrance, a blend of three vanilla types, spices and rare resins for a warm wintery experience! Available
online for 65$for 12ml roll-on bottle.
I must say I'm intrigued by their wine-inspired scent, though: Sommelier Katherine Marlowe collaborated with the brand for The Perfumed Wine Trio, in which the first release - Rosé - combines fresh berry, crisp apple, dark oaks, and rich spices with hints of clove and nutmeg, warming into a peppery finish: like a good full-bodied wine sipped during a holidays feast!
