The Return of the Perfumistas - Thread 13: more of MrsR's bad things plus scents to wear to the tip

[MrsGruber]

The force is definitely still with us. Come and join us for a chat about perfume. We're lovely and friendly.

Old thread

Good luck one I'll be thinking of you 💐
(Your perfume is all packed and ready to go 😁 just let me k ow when you want it)

Sotd PP opium as it's so grey and drab here.

Drs appt. Referral for tests. Bluergh.

Post office to post eleventy million parcels 😣

Spent ages on phone trying to co ordinate some voluntary work.

But did go to a new patisserie/cafe 😁

Have a Good day all x

Hope it goes OK One.

You have my sympathy Fancy.
SotD has been Coromandel. Big guns needed at work. Have nipped out and picked up a cheap Abahna EDP in TKMaxx at lunchtime. Haven't sniffed so not sure if it's a keeper or if it's hitting the present drawer yet. Lilac Rose Geranium in nice packaging.

Can’t wait to get home today and see if any of my packages have arrived! Very excited about my Chanel haul. Will give Parure a sniff and likely send onto MrsGruber if I don’t like it.

for Fancy x

Hope work is going ok MrsGruber

PP valentino Donna and valentino rock and roses has arrived...
Both very pleasant rose scents.
Will be lovely for summer 👍

I've sent the evil dark side perfume back to galaxy far, far away 🤣

Afternoon all.

Good luck Onenight!

Sotd has been PP No Malone LBM. It's OK. Even the £5 PP version doesn't make me think "cripes what a bargain" as it's just so linear. Will have a bath in a bit and put something nicer on.

Hi all, exciting news here - have unexpectedly got £100 of reward vouchers to spend from work. Can use in Boots, Debenhams and House of Fraser plus other non perfume places. What to get?

Any of you lovely ladies have a 4610 Rome 1963 sample you dont want?

I have shazam!, eau my soul or Rosa ribes in return?

SotD Terra Incognito Secret Island. Last one from my Bloom subscription. Pure ozonic notes, very 90s.

Oh, Auberginerus unexpected vouchers from work are always exciting, being forced to buy something for yourself! Last one I got I bought a small handbag and some Molton Brown. The one before that I bought towels not just for me but lovely because the towels we got when we married were falling apart!

MrsR I have a Rome 1963 up for grabs. Just one spray gone - it's really not for me.

Um

I might have done another bad thing...

Is it a sample pineapple?

Yes MrsR

Oh I'd love it.
Can I interest you in any of mine?...

mrsr you are incorrigible

I'd love to try Rosa Ribes MrsR if that ok? If you inbox me your address I'll pop Rome in the post for you tomorrow

I know fennel I'm ashamed of myself 😄

pineapple I'll post rosa ribes tomorrow if you pm me your address x

I've bought a sexiest scent extrait with 15ml left and seller is throwing in some oriane 😁😁

Hello! Lots going on!!

Exciting news Fennel, I Hope all goes well Sock, sorry to hear it's been a hard day Fancy.

Have had unexpectedly good weather in Cornwall so SotD yesterday was AC Orange Sanguine for a clear warm day at the beach and today has been Oriane.

Still checking TKMaxx... if they have True Lust in stock when we're back home I might go for it...

SOTD is MMM Untitled. It felt a bit spring-y today.

Good luck, one, hope everything goes well. fancy, hope tomorrow is a better day. Btw, DP has been doing some ebay-ing, he has loads of vinyl and it has proven very lucrative. Annoyingly we have a non-paying bidder on the record which sold for £150 - bloody typical. The rest have been going for an average of £40, which is pretty good. (All fairly obscure 90s indie stuff, whuch only real geeks bought on vinyl.)

Can everyone send good dental vibes for me tomorrow, please? I am more scared about this checkup than I have been for hours of root canal treatments. And I have the stupid cold again.

Nobody want to confess to the latest 4160T crowdfunder? No one? Don't believe you! It does look interesting visually, but I want to read the T&Cs before I decide...

SoTD was Equistrius, but my hands have been washed so many times it's a miracle there's still skin there, much less perfume. Back to getting used to putting in and (worse) removing contacts; am sure it would have been easy at 16, but at 61...

Good dentist wishes for you Judy, you must be keen to hear, "I don't think we need to see you for a year". Love MMM Untitled; haven't worn it yet this year, but it's on the horizon. Your DP's E Bay vinyl sale reminds me that I should get around to doing the same.

Best wishes to One. Happier tomorrow, Fancy.

Good luck Judy x

Good luck Judy.

I'm already in OC - I like the crowd funding. Can't beat the combo of a bargain and a bit of suspense . Plus I like to support 4160Ts; they've taught me so much about perfume and I admire the way their ethics are part of the business.

It's not much of a risk - always the option to swap/sell on if necessary...

Loads of luck for tomorrow judy

I'm working my way through a gazillion Ebay pages because the filter tool doesn't seem to be working. Do we have an opinion on Issey Miyake Pleats Please (please)? I feel as if it's calling to me but I have absolutely no idea why because it doesn't look or sound like something I would like.
