The way they mold to your feet is unbeatable. I love them. I've been meaning to get more styles. I'm sad I missed the Manolo crossover.
I've been meaning to get new towels so I'm definitely going to look into Frette. Thanks!

Another Addition:
de Sede leather furniture.
they started as a saddle maker and branched out into furniture in the 1960's (I believe).
And like Hermes they not only use the best quality hides and workmanship but also incorporate innovative design that has stood the test of time (in my opinion) and indeed some of the pieces like the Snake sofa or the boxing glove have become iconic.
As a fan of modernist furniture and architecture when we brought our current home 12 years ago (a 1960's design) we set out to buy de Sede sofa's and are lucky enough to now own two (one a sofa-bed in the spare room) and I can say hand on heart they are comfortable, beautifully constructed and durable.
I love them so much that when/if we move again even if its to a Victorian or Georgian house We're taking them with us.
The beauty of truly good design is that it really can work in any environment.
Same as a Birkin, Kelly or Bolide can be worn by a Woman (or man) from 18-90 but thats another story..

Have you tried any of the products yet?
I was reflecting in the bath last night that the bar of soap I was using is well into its 3rd month.. (probably longer...) and in case you were wondering..I take a bath every night and a shower every morning (for which I use Hermes Orange Vert Shower gel)
edited to add: DH fortunately uses his own soap so the Santa Maria is Mine and mine alone!
I'm currently doing a bathroom declutter and am going to reward myself with some when I finish. I'll keep you posted!

Agree with you and @maxroxxherhandbags
Instead of getting cypres and other Birkenstock dupes, to honour my Hermes bags, I got hardware-matching, big-buckled Gizeh
These are comfy out of the box, and IMO the leather is much nicer than the pic

Parks Candles
Loro piana (started exploring the brand)
Smithson of Bond street
Roger and gallet soap / Farmaceutive di Santa Morella, too

Loro Piana is to cashmere as Hermès is to leather goods. 
I brought the Milano version of these they are so cool! I think I need this version too.Agree with you and @maxroxxherhandbags

Oh, I'd also say Biologique Recherche is the Hermès of skincare.
Tried it at the Ritz Spa in Paris. The spot solution (PGM crème and toner) have really worked wonders on my spots.
