Deseo: El Dr. Bálsamo del cuerpo de Bronner

Amo a Dr. Jabones mágicos de Bronner - en el interior son eco-amistosos, en el exterior su aparentemente minimalist que el empaquetado es una caja del jabón para El Dr. Bronner, fabricante principal del jabón que escapó a institución mental. ¿Pero la mejor parte? El Dr. Bronner hace productos un-perfumados, como este bálsamo orgánico del cuerpo…

El usar: El Dr. Jabón de Unscented de Bronner

Tan opción - el Dr. El jabón Bebé-Suave de Bronner es apacible pero cuidadoso, y viene unscented. El champú I mi cuerpo y pelo con él, huelo tan como mi perfume - L' artesano Parfumeur Tubereuse - y no un guisado de los productos de la belleza…

El odiar: El Dr. Cuidado orgánico del pelo de Bronner

El Dr. El acondicionador orgánico de Bronner viene en hierbabuena, fruta cítrica, y lavendar, oh mi. ¿Tan porqué el odio? El Dr. El acondicionador de Bronner no viene unscented. Y soy así que cerca de unscented la experiencia de la ducha, dejada en desorden con “todo-dios-en-uno” el empaquetado…

Wanting.

I’ve never been into iPhone condoms — the sex appeal of the iPhone is its sophisticated simplicity — I like it raw. But then I saw these Lapàporter iPhone sleeves, which echo the elegance of the economy of the super-smart phone’s design: a simple sliver of skin becomes extra choice as the shape highlights a rich python…

Using.

I love that Bottega-like basketweave. Bags are a last resort for me, so this Lapàporter iPhone sleeve is great — I can slip a credit card in here for a quickie. Errand…

Hating.

We just chatted about how choice rich minimalism is, and here’s a useless bow…

Wanting.

I wish L’Artisan Parfumeur made a tubereuse candle–then I’d stop spritzing my bedroom and pillows with their perfume, turning L’Artisan Parfumeur’s Tubereuse into the world’s most expensive alternative to Febreze…

Wearing.

L’Artisan Parfumeur’s Tubereuse is my daily. It’s feminine without being girly, distinct without being distracting — it’s one of those scents that’ll make people tell you that you smell good, not wonder what you’re wearing. I like to spray it in front of me, and walk into its cloud after I shower…

Hating.

So L’Artisan Parfumeur for Bottega is a good coupling: both are quiet luxury based on craftsmanship. I’m just over Big Brand for Big Brand deals…

Wanting.

I spritz some L’Artisan Parfumeur into the air and walk into it right after showering, at the start of every day (mhmm, sometimes as early as 10 a.m.). Most flowery fragrance is a light, girly giggle; L’Artisan Parfumeur is a low, powerful purr. I wonder if L’Artisan Parfumeur’s frangrance sphere make your space vibe the same…

Using.

Chesapeake Bay Candle sent me their latest fragrance sphere, a minimalist ceramic globe that flavors your air with cedar, sandalwood, and fig. I tucked it into the the corner of my powder room — the scent is subtle, and the fragrance sphere is less obvious than a spindly reed diffuser…

Hating.

Even if this fragrance sphere made my bathroom smell like Giselle’s panties I’d pass…

Wanting.

I love that sapphire blue of this Alstermo Bruk attache. Only issue? It’s basically a box lined in linen, so I’m not sure how my MacBook would do in there…

Using.

I finally got my Alstermo Bruk cabin case. Alstermo Bruk began before Globe Trotter luxury luggage and it’s got the same vibe, for a third of the price: handcrafted, ultra-light elegance. Alstermo Bruk’s AMO-fiber^®, the patented material their luggage is made out of, is better than I thought: it’s got a subtle, snakeskinny texture…

Hating.

Cute briefcase, but Alstermo Bruk’s best work is in their AMO-fiber^®…

Wanting.

Alstermo Bruk handmakes luggage like luxury travel gear Globe Trotter — for less than half the price. Alstermo Bruk is hardly a knock-off, though: the Swedish company has been making their patented gear since 1804 (that’s 93 years pre-Globe Trotter, and 200+ years pre-Globe Trotter at J Crew)….

Using.

Perfect for stashing makeup on the bathroom counter…

Hating.

Alstermo Bruk’s appeal is in their function-meets-form elegance, not a nutty pattern…

Wanting.

This Carl Mertens fireplace is how a woman should be: a primitive attraction stylized in the most controlled, urbane way.

Floating glass sandwiches stainless steel; this Carl Mertens table top fireplace burns up to four hours, depending on your size of flame…

Using.

This Carl Mertens table top fireplace is sexier than any candle.

Radiating heat as well as light, the oil-burning, stainless-steel logs come set atop a slate plate…

Hating.

A sleek cylinder of stainless steel, the perfect marriage of form and function, the only reason I’m hating this Carl Mertens lighter is because I didn’t know about it before I blew $100 on a Porsche Design lighter.

This Carl Mertens lighter is idealization, with a realistic price: $26…

Wanting.

Jimmyjane massage candles are the best: they burn clean, they smell wonderful, and they get even better when you blow them out.

I wonder how this Jimmyjane bourbon candle smells…

Using.

This Voluspa bourbon candle burns steady, and gives off a subtle vanilla scent, without any sugariness…

Hating.

There’s no way something so ugly can smell good…
