Laurent Delafon has a pretty enviable job. The founder of United Perfumes travels the world spreading good scents. He dropped into Miami to show off the 2012 Fornasetti Profumi collection, from candles and boxed incense sticks to ceramic globe diffusers and crystals. Rachel Zoe and Madonna reportedly love the Italianate packaging. At En Avance and The Webster. www.fornasetti.com

Holidays often mean airport travel and malls. To keep track of the little ones, one solution is a Safe-2-Go child-friendly harness in disguise, created by Nancy Ginakes, sister of Nia Vardalos. Star moms and dads like Nancy O’Dell and Colin Hanks appreciate how these animal-figure backpacks double as toys. Tots love these colorful plushies for obvious reasons. There’s even a NASCAR-licensed Jeff Gordon car. At www.babysherpa.com
