ALL ACCESS SKELETON KEY Sometimes a skeleton in the closet (or dresser) is a good thing. The $47,600 Santos-Dumont Skeleton watch (calibre 9614 MC) from Cartier elegantly exposes its inner workings, Hugo-style. But this is no bare-bones timekeeper. The 18-carat rose-gold case features sword-shaped hands in blued steel. They glide across stylized Roman numerals sculpted into a skeletonized bridge over the visible mechanics. With a heptagonal rose-gold crown set with a faceted sapphire, this contemporary update honors its Santos-Dumont heritage well.

This riff (which translates to "lover of spices") uses 1800 Reposado tequila, Créole Shrubb (a cajun-spiced orange liqueur) in place of triple sec, fresh cilantro and lime, and a red jalapeño-infused agave syrup. Richards suggests savoring the sweet-and-spicy treat at Lakeside, overlooking the Lake of Dreams. AMANTE PICANTE MARGARITA 1 3 oz. 1800 Reposado tequila 1 oz. Clément Créole Shrubb ⁄2 ⁄4 ⁄2 1 oz. fresh lime juice 1 oz. fresh sweet-and-sour mix 1 oz. ⁄4 red jalapeño-infused agave syrup 4 cilantro tops Combine ingredients in a mixing glass.

Juniper, angelica root, cardamom, and orris are all common notes in the best London dry gins. Now master perfumer Olivier Cresp has captured these top notes in Penhaligon's Juniper Sling eau de toilette ($110 for 50ml), a crisp, fresh tribute to London's roaring '20s. Notes of leather, black pepper, and brown sugar keep the scent fi rmly grounded in spice and wood territory. Wynn Apothecary, 702-770-3537 PHOTOGRAPHY BY JACQUELYN ALLEN (JUNIPER SLING)
