One pretty bottle
If you love perfume bottles, here' s a keeper: Badgley and Mischka's new scent, Fluers de Nuit (Flowers of the Night) comes in a gorgeous bottle etched with a brocade pattern.
Full disclosure: I have not smelled the scent, but it's described as "white floral with notes of magnolia and night-blooming jasmine." Apparently the design duo was inspired while on a trip in India, where they were in a moon garden which had night-blooming flowers that are pollinated by night butterflies.
The whole idea sounds lovely. But seriously, the bottle puts it over the top.
Fleurs de Nuit will be available in October for a limitied time. It comes in one size, a 3.4-oz. eau de parfum spray, for $90. Get it at Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue, Bergdorf Goodman, Nordstrom and Bloomingdale's.
