Most of us only dream of the opportunity to be close enough to our favorite celebrities to know what they smell like. Thankfully, for our column “What I Can’t Live Without,” we’ve interviewed hundreds of famous people, and many of them shared the products that make them smell good. From the Comme des Garçons perfume that Amy Sedaris owns 13 bottles of, to the Dominique Ropion scent that four celebrities — including Lynda Carter and Alex Eagle — love, here’s every fragrance famous people can’t live without.

Speaking of scents, Waxahatchee’s Katie Crutchfield told us about the incense she burns in the recording studio, and now all I want to do is burn it and listen to her new album on repeat. She also told us about the nightgown, the clothes steamer, and many other very tasteful things she can’t live without.

Also on the site: Kitchen and dining writer Emma Wartzman compiled all the pots and pans we’ve ever written about, beauty writer Rachael Griffiths talked to dermatologists about the best skin-care products for your 50s, chef Alex Wight told us how to steal her vacation to Seville, Spain, and here’s our guide to shopping at Skims.

And if you’re looking for a good deal, here’s 12 things on sale you’ll actually want to buy (including 40 percent off select Brooklinen colors.) –Ashley Wolfgang, newsletter editor
