Delirium & Co. - Blue Absinthe Candle at miomia
Inspired by idealistic periods in history, Delirium & Co. is a romantic and stylish candle line that will bring a touch of luxury and sophistication to any space. Encased in a unique, hand-made translucent reflective glass and housed in a modern chic box, these rich fragrances will leave a lasting scent that will invoke moods and create memories.
Delirium & Co. candle Blue Period marks a journey of commanding fragrances that tantalize the senses. Dark, mysterious and regal, the “Blue Period” invokes a time of long ago,a time when men were brave, suave and chivalrous. Miomia carries the following decidedly “mannish” scents:
- Suede & Smoke Candle is a smoldering vaporous mingling of tobacco leaves, moss, papaya, lapsangsouchong dark tea and green manda.
- Blue Absinthe Candle is an intoxicating masterful brew of Absinthe, vetiver, blonde woods, basil and rosemary.
- Royal Amber Candle is a commanding imperial potion of pine needles, black pepper, eucalyptus, sandalwood, musk and myrrh.
- Samurai Woods Candle is a mystical woodland blend of incense, bergamot, nutmeg, sandalwood and patchouli. Reminiscent of Slatkin’s famous Oriental Woods candle.

Embryolisse at miomia
Embryolisse was formulated in the 1950’s by a physician who desired to create his own pharmaceutical skin care brand that met the expectations and acceptance of his profession.
With the use of progressive technology and the most up-to-date research regarding skin surface physiology and bacteriology, Embryolisse Laboratories has improved the specific formulas for healthy and natural skin. This process led to the development of the Embryolisse product line, an innovative dermo-cosmetic that respects the natural balance and composition of the skin.
Embryolisse was created with the understanding of the “natural barrier” properties of the skin. The formulas preserve the biological balance and assure anti-aging prevention. The simplicity of these formulations minimizes the risk of allergy and respects the natural balance of your skin.
Embryolisse products help restore skin tone and elasticity while protecting your skin; leaving it smooth, gentle, and supple. All Embryolisse products are based on active agents, which restore skin deficiencies and at the same time promote the “natural barrier” function that protects against free radicals.
The plant extracts and active ingredients used in Embryolisse are recognized for their gentleness and tolerance. All products are tested under dermatological control for their effectiveness and safety.
This French line is beloved by makeup artists, models, celebs, and all people who appreciate simple, effective, and easy-to-use skincare. The 24-Hour Miracle Cream is the secret of every makeup artist. Every. You won’t find a kit that doesn’t include this multi-tasking miracle tube.
To purchase the legendary Lait-Crème Concentrè (24-Hour Miracle Cream), and to see other Embryolisse products at miomia, click here.

Brandy Parfums Eau de Toilette Spray
Every so often, a new fragrance is launched that generates ever-widening circles on its own merit, something like the ripples created by casting a stone on still water. BRANDY eau de toilette is such a phenomenon.
First created by artist Patricia Namm who used Brandy, a striking palomino Central Park carriage horse, as her muse, the fragrance was immediately embraced by the so-called “horsey” set. It has been featured in countless glossy equine publications and catalogues, both here and abroad.
Now the message is out as women and men of all ages engaged in diverse sports and activities adopt this fragrance for themselves. We think it is the suggestion of distant fields, rolling aromatic meadows, apple and peach top notes, and herbaceous heart notes that account for the appeal of this pleasing scent. Just one mist from the handsome bottle has the ability to erase stress and turmoil, and transport the most jaded urban dweller to verdant countryside for a reviving and cleansing visit. A fresh elegant fragrance with top notes of apple and peach and herbaceous heart notes that help reduce stress. Simply warm, soothing and delicious.

Bluebeards Original : Beard Wash and Beard Saver
Finally, yes finally! Products made exclusively for you boys with facial hair. There’s thousands of grooming products to help you achieve a close shave and smooth skin, but what if you choose to grow those whiskers out? What if you like a full beard?
Bluebeards Original is the brilliant (and necessary) brainchild of Paul Kaniewski and Moira Koch. After frustrating and fruitless attempts at finding a product to help maintain a soft and itch-free beard, Paul and Moira went out on their own and created Bluebeard Originals. The concept is simple and two-fold: wash your beard, and protect it. That’s it!
Here’s to grooming for all men!
