@BookMeOnTheSudExpress - do we? How amazing! I'm trying to guess who you are now! Don't worry I won't give it away. #mumsnetcode

teta- here's my review of Accord Chic iscentyouaday.com/2017/01/28/yves-rocher-secret-dessences-accord-chic/

Honestly, I think the majority of males see fragrance as an accessory. Special occasions only. Why would you need a special occasion to smell nice!? Baffles me! How old are your DD's Teta?

I have an Eau My Soul sample if anyone wants to sniff whilst it's SOTW?

I'm toying with getting the 100ml, I bought a 50ml at the start of the year and it's nearly all gone!

MissB- we've talked about old Diors, Rive Gauche, Vent Vert etc. I also told you to compare Moonwind and Miss Dior! I think I last posted about the founding fathers/mothers of Dior, Guerlain, Chanel etc turning in their graves at the pink mingers being churned out by the houses these days!

Candles!!

I have more scented candles than perfumes. They’re cheaper than perfume. Five small jar Yankee Candles, a couple of Body Shop Christmas ones, and some other ones that I’m not sure where they’re from. My mother likes scented candles, reed diffusers and perfumes too, it’s genetic!!

Superb enabling MrsR!

That's two candles on the way......

Wax melts- Santa's cookies from Imperial candles

Just got a sample of Juliette has a Gun Metal Chypre. I'm obsessed and my DC hate it - kid repellent yay!

SOTD Tauer Lonestar Memories. Perfect for going out for dinner on a wild evening.

Peach! I would be very grateful to try Eau My Soul. PM me and ill see if I’ve got any sample last you’d want in return?

SOTE (night!) is a random post shower dab of an Arabian oil I have and have never tried . Labiba by al haramain.

As a GC feminist I hate to say this...but it’s too masculine . Piney citrus with a weirdly aftershavey honey/oud drydown. No!

that you’d want in return!

If it's not on the website I'm not sure, but I should imagine that it might be one of the Crimes of Passion in Extrait form as that range was made with really high quality ingredients. They all are, but that one in particular.

Morning All. SotD is L'AdDM - prices for the miniature seem to have shot up on the Tauer site, which also seems to still not offer secure check-out?

On a cheerier note, have you seen the niche box The Perfume Society are doing at the moment? Looks like the contents might be a bit more consistently interesting than some of their other boxes?

morning all, sorry ive been AWOL for a little while, i obviously moved last weekend so i've been getting unpacked and settled and looking after MIL.

Not much happening in the way of SOTDs as I can't get to most of my perfume right now due to space, the last thing i wore was the PP dupe for Lush's Death and Decay!

Inbox me your address 3 and I'll pop in the post tomorrow for you.

@Mrs8- the candle should be gorgeous. I love that they arrived at studio on a bus!

@MrsLucas- yes I'm so getting the niche box. You'd never be able to get all of those samples any other way! Fantastic.
