New Things For Your Condiment Collection, Wine Cellar, And Takeout Habit

While Victoria was getting busy with Augustinus, her son Brooklyn has been in the kitchen (or his people have been in the kitchen), developing a new line of condiments. Cloud23 – referencing his dad’s jersey – is debuting exclusively at Whole Foods nationwide and in the UK, where it’ll attempt to sell $17 hot sauces. (You, like me, might enjoy more details via this Daily Mail article, which slams Brooklyn’s culinary skills and points out that he once asked a chef how he would know when a hashbrown was cooked.) Beckham’s LLC has filed for trademarks on ketchup, aioli, Worcestershire, and a slew of other things you can put on top of food, so he’s evidently keeping his product concepts diversified.

Rose Los Angeles partnered with Potrero Hill neighborhood deli Aurora Alimentari on a Datterini Gialli Tomato and Basil Delight, made with California-grown tomatoes from Full Belly farm (but informed by months of field research, including a visit to a village at the base of Mount Vesuvius). Like all of Rose’s Delights, these edibles are truly one of a kind, infused with an octimene-rich sativa strain and 3 MG THC for a gently buoyant, euphoric effect. Also like all of the brand’s Delights: so delicious you’ll wish you could eat the whole box without the psychoactive repercussions.

Speaking of sweet treats that will make you feel fantastic: Spring & Mulberry launched a new Essence collection this week, a quartet of ungarnished bars infused with aromatic essential oils. Just when I thought this date-sweetened chocolate couldn’t get any better. Something tells me these Mint Leaf, Coffee, Blood Orange, and Bergamot bars will be at the top of my personal treat — and gifting — rotation.

Family-owned Santa Barbara winery Pali Wine Co. released a very special bottle this week: the first vintage of its Chenin Blanc, and what is believed to be the only Chenin Blanc currently grown in the area. In 2022, after a bout of disease killed 20% of their Pinot Noir vines, the team decided to graft Chenin Blanc onto existing rootstock that had previously supported their Pinot. Simultaneously, they shifted their focus to organic and regenerative farming practices. Born of this experimentation, excitement, and nervous anticipation is a wine with bright acidity, oceanic minerality, and aromatic white peach, jasmine, and honeycomb — the delicious result of a labor of love and determination.

Kosas and goop Kitchen partnered to make a timeless lunch combo a little more cute. The “Kosas Inner Glow Soup & Salad Set” features a fresh, crunchy, plant-based salad and a bone broth, developed to improve skin health and hydration. Food is medicine, and it is also the most important part of any beauty routine! Get rewarded for ordering takeout, and restock on your Kosas favorites: if you order the set, you’ll score 20% off sitewide from now through October 1.

Clare V. partnered with Schoolhouse to launch the designer’s first full collection of home goods, from wool rugs to a striped sofa for your Parisian pied-a-terre (or for your LA living room to feel that way). Quiet Town launched The Spot, a modular caddy that works just as well in your shower as it does in your herb garden.

Liis And Abel Make You More Fragrant And Less Toxic

Credit: Liis, Abel

One of my favorite fragrance brands, Liis, launched a new scent this week, named after a line from Shakespeare’s Sonnet 116. Of True Minds smells just as poetic and autumnal as it sounds. Nutmeg and amaretto marry with patchouli and smoky resins for a deep, intense, and special fragrance that pairs well with a fireplace. 

Founded by a former winemaker, Abel is dedicated to making 100% natural fragrances that don’t rely on harsh petrochemicals to make boundary-pushing scents. Believe me: these perfumes, much like Liis’s fragrances, don’t smell anything like the organic rollerballs you might associate with non-toxic scents. This week, Abel launched Minis, designed to tuck into your bag or carry-on for a refresh wherever you go. Available in all nine of the brand’s scents (including hormone-happy scents Nurture and Pause), pick your favorite and don’t look back.

Before You Go…

A few more things to tempt you. Omorovicza launched its new Soothing Salve, a dermatologically-tested remedy that works instantly to cool and reduce redness while strengthening the skin barrier over time. Sustainably sourced Catalonian Microalgae and antioxidant-rich marine Chamomile power the formula in tandem with Omorovicza’s Healing Concentrate, a fermented encapsulation that preserves and delivers the healing benefits of Budapest’s mineral-charged thermal waters. Translation? Better skin hydration, elasticity, and firmness in just seven days.

Saie announced The Saie Climate Initiative, a historic commitment for beauty at a time when plastic has overwhelmed the industry. The initiative involves a three-pronged approach: a commitment to eliminate and offset their carbon emissions to net zero by 2039; a partnership with rePurpose Global to empower 2,000 women with increased incomes, social security, and health insurance; and an all-female board to drive the mission. It’s just an added bonus that the brand makes my favorite products in the game.

Clean beauty repository Credo launched its own line of skincare, which has been in the making for ten years. Staud collaborated with Wrangler on a capsule collection that won’t leave my sponsored ad algorithm alone. Alex Mill’s 100% Cashmere line is just one of the designer’s many excellent new launches for your Fall consideration, including these mid-rise Corduroys I’m desperate for, if anyone at Alex Mill HQ is reading (I’m not above begging). Cuyana’s new Celestia shoulder bag gives The Row quality at a fraction of the cost, and the entire collection of accessories makes a good case for holiday or birthday (yes, we’re nearing holiday, and I’ve got the inbox to prove it). Chevrolet and Erewhon launched an “Electric Juice,” truly no comment. I am, finally, speechless.

Happy shopping. Email me directly – [email protected] – with any launches you’d like to see in the spotlight, or DM us over @thequalityedit
