GOLD'n Standard

'Tis the season for gift-giving...and we have found a splendid gift for the person who has it all!
We are proud to present Gold 'N Dulcinea, a specialty brand of handmade drawer sachets that come beautifully wrapped in satin-lined gift boxes.
Each sachet has a custom blended fragrance reflective of its unique design - "from striking florals, exotic fruits, to decadent desserts".
Each sachet is thoughtfully designed using rich fabrics and gorgeous embellishments. Gold 'N Dulcinea has revamped the timeless concept of a sachet by crossing modern luxury with vintage charm.
For example, check out the cute "Button Me Up in Bling" sachet that's made from apple green cashmere and embellished with freshwater pearls and cut crystal beads, and embroidered with the Gold 'N Dulcinea logo and a gold & pearl lapel pin. This piece has the soothing fragrance of violet, gardenia petals, bergamot and rich plum...YUM!
There are also the less 'girly' scents such as the "Smoldering Satin" knotted silk sachet with the fragrance of rich black fig, warm english tea and vanilla.
There are currently 10 designs/fragrances available, all of which can be found at the Gold 'N Dulcinea website. You can also purchase select styles exclusively online at www.fairefroufrou.com.

What is that lovely scent??

Customers of Faire Frou Frou tend to share one common question...What is that lovely scent in your store? Well, the big secret (okay, it was never a secret) is out: Diptyque Room Spray. Or at least, it's that in combination with our kai candles and Calypso fragrances that we sell. In any event, I typically use the Tuberose scent, whereas my mom comes to the store and uses the Geranium Rosa. I just overdid it with spraying a bit too much fragrance around the shop, and now I have a headache and feel naucious, but I digress.
I order my Diptyque fragrances from Bergdorf Goodman (no sales tax!!), and just recently worked over the phone with a lovely sales associate, Marina, from the Diptyque San Francisco store. She persuaded me to try their signature shampoo which I had no idea about until yesterday. I purchased Eau d'Elide...I can't wait to wash my hair with it tomorrow morning!
