TOO TENDER TO LIVE; TOO SWEET TO DIE……. FLEURS DE ROCAILLE by CARON (I933) + EAU DE FLEURS by NINA RICCI (I980) + FLEURS DE FLEURS by NINA RICCI (1982) + QUELQUE FLEURS by HOUBIGANT (I9I3)

Among the recycle shop delights of this holiday, the other day, at the most rundown Zushi scuz emporium I have ever been to – so messy and random and almost disgusting, in truth-  I found a parfum de toilette of Nina Ricci’s Fleurs de Fleurs (the absolute perfection of this bygone archetype) for one dollar. One hundred yen. 

I can’t tell you how soft and comforting it is as a bed perfume
