It’s the small pleasures in life that make it all worthwhile.

A new collection of airport-friendly RYOKO fragrance pebbles is launching this summer from Kenzo Parfums and we are beyond excited. We fell in love with Kenzo RYOKO last summer when the first collection launched and have been waiting for Kenzo to make one with our beloved KenzoAmour fragrance.

The travel-friendly pebbles are ergonomically-designed and fit into the palm of the hand and feel so smooth it’s nearly impossible to put it down.

The RYOKO comes in five Nomad Sprays:

The Range for her

• FlowerbyKenzo eau de parfum nomad spray
• KenzoAmour eau de parfum nomad spray (YAY!)
• L’eau Par Kenzo eau de parfum nomad spray

The Range for him

• L’eau Par Kenzo Pour Homme nomad spray
• Tokyo by Kenzo nomad spray

RYOKO fragrance pebbles will be available for $29 beginning this month at www.kenzousa.com .

Okay, the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale will be finished in three days. (Didn’t it just start?!)

As the countdown continues we find ourself frantically scanning Nordstrom.com each day, fearing we’ll miss something that we just CAN NOT LIVE WITHOUT. And what if we find it next week, when it’s no longer on sale? The horror!

Here’s what we found today:

NARS Highlighting Blush Powder/Blush Duo

NARS Orgasm blush has been a favorite of ours (and everyone’s) since 2000. This Nordstrom Exclusive contains not only our fave, but also the increasingly popular Albatross Highlighting Blush Powder together in one compact.

KENZOAMOUR Eau de Parfum

We blasted through our first bottle of KENZOAMOUR in no time at all (clearly we’re not the only one that loves this fragrance as it won a prestigious Fifi Award this year). This time around we’re opting for the larger 3.4 oz bottle which qualifies us to receive a mini fragrance, body nectar, and shower honey. Score!

Anthony Logistics for Men Glycolic Facial Cleanser


We’re getting this for our husband partly because of the convenient pump dispenser and the fact that he’ll be getting a mini-glycolic facial with every wash, but mostly because we’re sick of him using ours.

There it is. We’ll let you know what tomorrow brings.

At first glance, the new RYOKO fragrance ‘pebble’ by Kenzo Parfums could be mistaken for a teeny computer mouse.

Meaning ‘travel’ in Japanese, the RYOKO is a smooth little container housing one of Kenzo’s four favorite scents (FLOWERBYKENZO, SUMMERBYKENZO, L’EAU PAR KENZO pour femme, & L’EAU PAR KENZO pour homme).

Pocket-sized and ergonomically designed, the ‘pebble’ fits so perfectly in our hand we don’t want to put it down.

Ideal for travel or our handbag, this virtually spill-proof (we’re not sure it even opens) RYOKO keeps our favorite Kenzo fragrance with us at all times.

(Okay, second favorite Kenzo fragrance. KenzoAMOUR is not available in a RYOKO. Yet.)

Available August 2007 exclusively at kenzousa.com.

Since becoming completely and utterly enamored with Kenzo Amour we couldn’t wait to get our hands on the newest Kenzo fragrance: FlowerByKenzo Summer.

This musky floral scent is everything you want for summer and more. With a vanilla base and notes of Bulgarian rose and gardenia blossom (on our skin, we barely detect the gardenia) this fresh scent is ideal for a day in the summer sun as it is light, playful and alcohol free.

Kenzo FlowerbyKenzo Summer Fragrance is Limited Edition for Summer 2007 and available exclusively at Sephora.
