Got a free 100ml bottle of Basil & Neroli and a free home candle today with two purchases. So did most of my friends. Anyone else? Anyone know why?

Just been into a store to test - the staff there were very surprised to hear the website was giving away 30ml colognes.

Also discovered I like basil & neroli, so may have to invest.

Newjob12345 · 21/06/2017 14:08

Does anyone know if the basil cologne is ok for men?

SasBel · 21/06/2017 14:16

Free 30ml bottle of Basil and Neroli! Thanks for the heads up. Got free engraving twice but cleared cookies both times.
Worth persevering for!

And yes all of the cheaper items are sold out.

I'll buy something if a 100 ml bottle comes up. The 30ml ones aren't enough to tempt me and I didn't fancy the Orris and Sandalwood being offered yesterday.

I think they're mostly unisex Newjob Smile

Orris and Sandlewood is gorgeous. I wear it often.

Not quite as nice as the Myrr and Tonka, but close.

@Mrs9C keep us updated but that is better than computer says no!

@SnotGoblin I've had different fragrances but also heard of someone getting mimosa and cardamom on day 1 which I've only had offered today but more and new things do come out!

Surprised store staff don't know about it!

I've not ordered from JM before but I did to get my freebie! How long do they normally take to deliver?

OptimisticOllie · 21/06/2017 16:02

I'm going to wait it out for a 100ml too. I did get one win of a 100ml one yesterday but didn't like the sound of it - it was the 'men's' one.

foodiefil · 21/06/2017 16:18

@thenewaveragebear1983 my order from Monday is expected to arrive on Saturday. Hope so!

I have placed a few orders and one for a colleague too. I got lucky this morning with a 100ml bottle of Basil & Neroli and bought the Pon Mior exfoliating shower cream. I already got a 30ml B&N yesterday but that will be perfect for SIL's birthday as that is her fragrance...

Now I have my fingers crossed for a free candle so I can get that and a room spray for my mum.

miffy2 · 21/06/2017 16:46

Pom Noir :)

sanitygirl · 21/06/2017 17:06

you can get hand and body wash for £30. Currently tempted by the Mimosa and Cardamon cologne

Housewife2010 · 21/06/2017 18:11

Is anyone still getting a candle?

thenewaveragebear1983 · 21/06/2017 18:17

I got a candle but that was yesterday, perhaps they have all gone now .

Have we deduced why they may be doing this massive giveaway? (Too scared to rtft because last time I did it cost me £44)

chloechloe · 21/06/2017 18:18

I've not had a candle today at all and have been trying all day. Just 30ml colognes - B&N or Mimosa - or free engraving.

Mrs9C · 21/06/2017 18:20

Same, no candles since the morn. I don't think my order managed to cancel in time, as no email back and no cancelled against the order in my account.

Whatthefoxgoingon · 21/06/2017 18:23

I got my candles and Pom noir room spray yesterday. I think they ran out fairly quickly. Maybe try again tomorrow?

EnidButton · 21/06/2017 18:25

I would've liked a room spray. I got a candle yesterday but it was removed from my bag/sold out before I could check out.

TitilatedOcelot · 21/06/2017 18:26

Still no idea why the give away. The member of store staff I spoke to today went straight on the phone to hq to check it out and then still wouldn't believe me. Had to show her my phone to prove I really did have a free 30ml cologne in my basket - before that she insisted I must have misunderstood the promotion as they only give away the small 9ml ones.

Still keep playing in the hope of bagging a free 100ml cologne, but all I've been offered lately are 30ml B&N or M&C or free engraving - no candles or body cream today.

EnidButton · 21/06/2017 18:26

All I'm getting now is the engraving and the occasional 30ml cologne.

EnidButton · 21/06/2017 18:30

I saw Sali Hughes was sent a body cream and cologne set with the same pink "just because" thing. My theory is they're rebranding so trying to reduce 'old' stock.
