4160 link

just go on their site, put you two perfumes in the basket and add the third one to the notes section on the order form.
shazam £40 for 30ml
rome £40 for 30ml
bodhilanguage also £40 for30ml
or you could choose two of the above and ask for eau my soul for free instead of £65 for 30ml

Well..
I'm off to take some more painkillers and relax.
Going to hospital tomorrow to find out if I need an op 😖
I must wear something comforting...hmm...

SOTD Heeley Sel Marin.

Good luck tomorrow, mrsR.

BlueKittens · 26/06/2018 20:32

Of course- please just PM your address and choices

MrStarkIDontFeelSoGood · 26/06/2018 20:41

I can’t justify it! 😂

lasttimeround · 26/06/2018 20:43

I thought id share what hat im enjoying in this hot weather.
My usuals dune and kenzo elephant still work well.
Plus herba fresca comes into its own - so fresh and herby.
Premier figuer the woody dryness is great in heat
Next - eau nude. Simple and clean
Prada fleur d'orange - orange blossom feels really right.
L'occitaine hungary water - crisp crisp crisp. Love the cypress in this.
My pp womaniti is also yum.

Whats not working for me: tuberose gardenia is cloying when im hot
My beloved apres l'ondee and quand viens la pluie need a bit of rain to shine. But when im ferling quiet these just speak to my soul.
I love how changing weather changes what i like smelling. Always makes winter less awful as i think mmm youth dew and other deep rich goodies to enjoy.
Anyone else the same? I feel like i have this slightly wierd hidden hobby you can't see that preoccupies me almost every day. Enriches my life (while murdering my wallet)

PestymcPestFace · 26/06/2018 20:47

next eau nude? MrsR good luck tomorrow.

Last- I had a squirt of Annick G orient sth or other earlier and it was almost Tauery in its resin and spice, and jarringly wrong for the heat!

Hungary Water sounds lush.

MrsLucas · 26/06/2018 22:11

Was only released to the Middle Eastern market Pesty - is it me or is it quite a chilly cardamon?

MrsLucas · 26/06/2018 22:13

SotE is Floral Street Black Lotus. I like this quite a lot. Smile

PestymcPestFace · 26/06/2018 22:43

cardamone = 3 parts ac dawn + 1 part tf scent. the white flowers must be lily and hint of orange. Non of the associated warm spices in there, so cool cardamon, reminds me of real builder chai (handful of cardamon pods in the kettle boiled to braintree and back)

Up early for a work conference in Blackpool today, so in honour of the venue and the lovely weather I'm wearing What I did on my Holidays Smile

Have lovely days all, hopeful well slept and less painful!

PlausibleSuit · 27/06/2018 08:34

Good luck today MrsR.

Ahh, memories... I used to go out in Blackpool, aubergines. Drenched in l'Eau d'Issey, I seem to recall (it was the late 90s). Nothing like eating vinegary chips looking out over the sea at 4.30am, waiting for the light and the train home.

SOTD Rook Neroli.

3DSpex · 27/06/2018 08:50

Morning all. Another day of meetings looms.
I’m rebelling with a frivolous celeb SOTD - Jessica Simpson Fancy Girl. Nectarine and vanilla, very light. Perhaps not what a 40 yr old professional woman should be wearing to a Very Serious Meeting...but I don’t care .

lastime Eclectic tastes! I haven’t worn Dune for ages. You’ve inspired me to crack it out tonight. Beautiful on summer nights. Had totally forgotten my love for it.

Good luck MrsR. Xx

UnnecessaryFennel · 27/06/2018 09:17

Feel like a human being again today so am celebrating with the minty fresh daftness of You or Someone Like You.

Hope all goes well today Mrsr

BlueKittens · 27/06/2018 09:56

Good choices for today- especially Aubergine

I’m in Prada Infusions D’Iris Cedre. Very suitable for a sweaty office with no air conditioning.

Sorry ladies but I got home last night and was so exhausted I failed to package up your samples for posting. Promise to do it tonight x

ChoccyJules · 27/06/2018 11:36

Succumbed to the 4160 offer, having recently discovered them and had a set of tester vials. So I've ordered my two faves from my testers, What I Did on my Holidays and Creamy Vanilla Crumble plus one I haven't yet tried, sounds fresher ( have no perfumista speak, am a novice) Ealing Green.

OneNightTimeMenaceStrikesBack · 27/06/2018 11:36

no problem blue i can certainly wait!!

can't decide on a scent for today yet, overwhelmed with choice tbh! wondering if i have anything minty....

UnnecessaryFennel · 27/06/2018 12:07

Excellent choices Jules! CVC is an all-time fave for me, and Ealing Green such a clever scent.

YOSLY has all but disappeared. Have SJP Stash in my desk drawer but don't know if I'm really in the mood for it...

teta · 27/06/2018 12:27

I have my bottle of Rook Neroli. Eminently suitable for this heat and smells like a really natural local orange blossom water from the local bazaar. Could be totally unisex. In fact I can imagine a well groomed middle Eastern business man wearing this. Francis Kurkdjian eat your heart out. You have a major usurper.

MrsRRR · 27/06/2018 14:21

Well.
Op booked 2 weeks time.
I was smelling fabulous in NR for her (massive thanks to spex) x

PestymcPestFace · 27/06/2018 16:00

Crikey, that is stunningly efficient MrsR hope that will be the end of your troubles.

3DSpex · 27/06/2018 17:05

Glad you’ve got a date MrsR. And that you smell fabulous [grin{

ChoccyJules · 27/06/2018 17:20

Glad to hear I have chosen well, even more excited now. They have already posted it (top customer service)!
