New (Bedding) Perfume: Eau de Lit by Guerlain
The house of Guerlain is bringing back into fashion a refined means to help us go to sleep and invite sweet scented dreams. The newly released Eau de Lit ("Lit" means "bed" in French) by Guerlain rekindles the tradition of scenting non-bodily surfaces such as handkerchiefs, clothes, and pillows. Eau de Lit is meant to be sprayed onto the bedding. Its aroma is described as being reminscent of that of our grand-mothers' antique cupboards.
The scent includes notes of bergamot, neroli, and star anise. The lovely opaque bottle will allow you to keep it on your night stand by the lamp without any problem.
Eau de Lit retails for 50 Euros for a 125 ml flacon.

Oh my goodness. I want that bottle. I don't care what it smells like!
A sentimental and charming idea, although probably not widely available for consumption !
March,
Welcome back! Yes, the bottle looks pretty and gay.
Chaya,
It's still affordable, but would have to go also with the right decoration:)
Where can you buy Eau de lit?? Only in France?? I was in Paris in Feb and should have bought some then - it smells gorgeous!!! I would like to get some for a Christmas pressie but cannot find it anywhere in the UK. Might be worth a trip back to the French Capital though ;-)
I have only heard about it in the French context, but you would need to double check with a Guerlain boutique. The Paris Guerlain stores ship internationally if you ask them to, so either a little trip or a phone call should work :)
