Happy Monday, Tonic-ettes! I come bearing definitely excellent news: The lovely people at (cult skincare brand) Kiehl's are giving all of you Table Tonic readers a free, full size Pear Essence Oil (valued at $48) when you spend $80 or more at kiehls.com.au. I know.
And if you think that's a bit smashing for a Monday morning, wait until you smell it, because it is abso-lutely beautiful (and also very relaxing!). I even wear mine to bed. True story. Sometimes I mix Pear up with Vanilla for a smoothie-on-your-wrist type deal (trust me). And bonus points for being small enough to carry in your handbag! See:
The other 9 scents are equally as dreamy - check it:

MUSK: "This is Kiehl’s first essence oil and still today, most beloved by customers who often refer to it as the Original Love Oil". AMBER: "Kiehl’s customers have always been drawn to Amber for its warm, sweet and long-lasting scent". CORIANDER: "Coriander was first used at the original Kiehl’s Pharmacy as medicinal oil for its soothing and healing properties. This aromatic stimulant and spice has been cultivated for over 3,000 years and used by the Egyptians as an aphrodisiac". GARDENIA: "Gardenia was first offered at the original Kiehl’s Pharmacy in the early 60s and was an instant classic for its exotically sweet, creamy and floral scent". CHINESE FLOWERS: "Chinese Flowers is a blend of multiple fragrance oils - a blend of violet and rose (such a precious ingredient in previous centuries that it was used as legal tender) as well as more exotic flowers of Lotus and Ylang Ylang". VANILLA: "Many Kiehl’s customers have shared their layering suggestions over the years, but an overwhelming majority mix Vanilla with Musk". CUCUMBER: "Avid Kiehl’s users enjoy the uniquely refreshing scent of Cucumber essence – especially since it’s known for its calming properties". GRAPEFRUIT: "A customer favorite for decades, Grapefruit delights with its fresh and citrusy scent". POUR HOMME: "Includes oils of Cistus, Patchouli, Fir Needle and Vetiver. To this day, Pour Homme is instantly recognizable and remains a favorite among Kiehl’s customers for its complex concentration of woodsiness".

PS Did I mention Kiehl's Creme de Corps comes in a 1 litre pump bottle ($98)? Oh my giddy aunt, yes it does. So good. PPS In 1647 Peter Stuyvesant, the governor of the Dutch colony of New Amsterdam brought back a pear tree from his native Holland and planted it on his farm. For 220 years, the tree thrived at the location that would form the intersection of Thirteenth Street and Third Avenue in the East Village – today fondly known by New Yorkers as “Pear Tree Corner” and outside the original Kiehl's Pharmacy. Out in front of the apothecary, Governor Stuyvesant’s historic pear tree shaded patrons and employees alike until 1867. Declared by Harper’s Monthly as “the oldest living thing in New York City” in 1862, the venerable pear tree bore fruit nearly until its demise, when it was struck in a most fateful wagon accident. On the 12th of November in 2003, Kiehl's re-planted a pear tree at the same location in honor of the community, officially marking “Pear Tree Corner” once more and received a declaration from New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, designating November 12th “Kiehl's Day.” - How cool is that story!
