Part 4- All you ever need to know about fragrance continues

[shoeprincess2]

Well, we're nearly all full.

onelittlelady No Signoricci at my Savers :(. I'm very sad about that because I was imagining it to be a bit Eau Savage-like? Is it ?
talisin I would love to rehome your Cabotine. I promise to give it a loving home nested amongst my perfume stash ( pm me if that is agreeable to you)
toys and fuckitthatilldo I am totally envious but I have nothing to trade at the moment except a couple of L'A P which are currently in gorgeous ( but completely useless little glass bubbles and will leak everywhere). Maybe someone could post a little decant tutorial. What do I need to decant and where do you get little sample bottles from. If I decant I have some Mure et Musc and the L' AP Amber one (whose name I forget).

Oh and that reminded me onelittleday I need to post the Plum....my husband has thrown a spanner in my brain works by being offered a job overseas and I can't keep anything in my head for long before it starts wandering to that. Also IF you liked the Coco Mademoiselle I still have that bottle of the Lidl dupe.

frugal the violets have arrived . So excited I immediately had to put on some Après l'Ondee . Lovely. But it already feels like it is disappearing.... Tomorrow I shall begin more scientifically. :)

Toys I have a tiny swap list (trying not to buy anything at the mo after my recent ebay splurges!) but do let me know if you want any of these:

ELdO
Vraie Blonde (nearly full)
Bendelirious (0.5 ml)
YSL- Parisienne (0.5 ml)

SOTD is the PP oil version of Bond No 9 Chinatown- musky, sweet tuberose to my nose, which should help my Fracas cravings once my sample runs out.

I'm wearing Louve again today - its a bit cold and grey here and I'm sat knitting in a cloud of it. Lovely.

We'll need a new thread soon - where had Shoeprincess2 got to I wonder? She usually keeps us in check with new threads etc...;

pocketandsweet if you PM me your address, I have picked up a bottle of Signoricci for you. I just need to know where to send it

onelittlelady I've pm'd you.

If by any chance you don't like it pocket send it on to someone else. Also, I was wrong, it wasn't 50mls for £2.99 it was 100!! I spritzed some on as I got in the house to cool off and it was fab, lovely and fresh, just the right amount of citrus and green to make me feel refreshed.

100mls! That is such a deal. The guy behind the till at my Savers said that they had definitely NOT had it. He said that a certain amount of random remaindered stuff just turns up. I feel so lucky :)

It was a lucky find! To say it's meant to be for men, I just don't get that at all. It seems to me, to be truly unisex. There's nothing overtly masculine about it to my nose.

Have PMed you, pocket

talisin this day is getting better and better. Keep those green/citrus suggestions coming everyone. Eau de Hadrien, Eau de Sud, Ninfeo Mio are all on the list.

SOTD Dries van Noten. Love the vanillic base!

Hi kiwigirl42 and other perfumistas. I am still lurking; just haven't been able to add anything of use of late (still in shock at returning to work after maternity leave and only just having baby sleep through-I am shot at!!) There's been lots of activity and great idea with the swapsie lists. I shall set up a new thread, probably later in the week.

Kiwi- I think I shall wear some Louve tomorrow. It definitely is a hug in a bottle!

Fuckit: I fancy Ambre Sultan, Arabie and Shem el Nessim, which ones do you want from my list?

Fuzzy: I've been wanting to try Vraie Blonde and Bendelirious! What would you like in return?

Got the violets today! Thanks Frugal! Have tried Unicorn Spell, but that was like curry on me.. really strange. Quite liked Ciel.

Wandered into a boots today and couldn't resist trying some stuff since the violets had mostly worn off. Tried LouLou (mainly because I really fancied the notes and wanted to see what Frugal finds so repulsive) and have to say I love it! To me it's like sweeter Opium. Have bid on a mini.. (ds gave his approval "something smells nice in here" again )

Sprayed Ysatis on the other arm and like that too.. (I must have been properly reeking again.. I thought I smelled ace! )

Ooh, and Fuzzy, I'd like to try Parisienne, as well! Really intrigued by the vinil note..

waves to shoeprincess2

Ok, update on swap lidt

Oh, didn't mean to post yet there..

So, update:

Bagsied for Fuzzy: Avignon, LADDM and Incense Rose

Also, bagsied for Cointreau: Portrait of a Lady and Iris Nobile

Toys I'd love to try the pentachord auburn, the incense extreme, and the vetiver dance please!

Am going away tomorrow morning until late Tuesday, so will have to sort out parcels after I get back if that's ok?

Avignoin, LADDM and Incense Rose- total utter heaven, all three!

Ok, Fuckit!

Trying the violets again today.. Predictably loving Violettes de Toulouse. Bois de Violette is not my cup of tea

Thanks again Frugal!

Actually, liking the heart/drydown of BdV..
