A spend of £60 this time!! Seems more than the last two doesn’t it?

Seems they want to get rid of the limited stuff they didn't sell. A total con I think! Up yours JM.

BasicUsername · 06/11/2018 15:33

I'm getting the same three summer scents each time I try. Nothing classic at all, it appears that it's the rubbish that didn't sell over summer.

AwkwardAsAllGetout · 06/11/2018 15:36

Very disappointed. A not so veiled attempt to get rid of the awful summer stock they couldn’t shift. I tried the cherimoya scent in the summer and it was vile, not what I’d expected from the description at all, to me it smelled like fly spray. The first time they did this promotion, I got some great things, their classic scents and things I’d actually want. It was quite an unbelievable giveaway. I also discovered my favourite Jo Malone scent through one of the freebies, Basil & Neroli. This just seems a bit meh. Last time they changed the freebie offers most days so I’ll keep my fingers crossed for better things tomorrow.

EachandEveryone · 06/11/2018 15:39

I’m back at work
Tomorrow

What a load of bollocks.

Can we get HQ to update the thread title to include 'DON'T BOTHER, IT'S SHITE' 

fairiesandelves · 06/11/2018 16:01

Cherimoya fir me too. Not bothering what a let down

IHopeYouStepOnALegoPiece · 06/11/2018 16:01

I actually quite like the sound of the tropical perfume I got and I fancied treating myself to a blackberry bay perfume as I’ve run out but the fact that the rest of Europe have a much lower spend AND their bullshit with giving big name you tubers a load of free stuff whilst NEVER offering anything to long term loyal customers...aside from upping the price of things, has annoyed me so much that I don’t actually want to give them my money.

Caggie09 · 06/11/2018 16:10

I was going to treat myself to a Pom Noir bath oil for christmas, and thought id taken advantage of this offer again. Done good the last 2 times but todays is poor!
I have the Cherry Blossom cologne. Wearing it today, but the scent seems to last 10 minutes then i cant smell it no more. Poor compared to my other JM products. Might hang out to Monday, i fancy the Ginger Biscuit one and thats when it launchesGrin

Baxdream · 06/11/2018 16:13

It says it ends on Thursday? I've got the cherry blossom. I might keep an eye out the next two days. If anything better comes along I'll reorder and return

Mumsnut · 06/11/2018 16:17

Got the cherry blossom but decided not to bother since it isn't one of the classic scents , pretty much all of which I'm familiar with

CarlsR15 · 06/11/2018 16:21

@Caggie09 I want the ginger biscuit one too. It said it launched 28th October? Have they put the date back? I can't find it online x

Caggie09 · 06/11/2018 16:24

Wheres the candles at? I thought they were going to put some christmas products in, obviously not. Bit crap tbh. I didnt realise it was only on for two days though!

HouseworkIsASin10 · 06/11/2018 16:25

I am relieved it's a crap choice to be honest.
Agree with Awkward Basil & Neroli was a freebie that I buy again and again.

Caggie09 · 06/11/2018 16:26

I messaged them on Facebook and they said it was next Monday it launches online. Not sure if its already instores though. I dont live near one to check either. Im deseprate for it though😬

AnarchyKitty · 06/11/2018 16:28

I give up. I had cherry and nashi blossom 100ml colonge both disappear at checkout.

Singerleon · 06/11/2018 16:31

Completely rubbish summer fragrances!! Don’t think I’m going to buy this time, gutted

Owlwantstoshare · 06/11/2018 17:31

Total swizz imo. Just trying to get shut of the stuff that didn’t do well this summer. I didn’t bother

MotherofTerriers · 06/11/2018 17:35

I've not been tempted. Only seeing cherimoya. Very dull, no variety, no candles...
It's a shame, it was fun last time
The £60 spend when its lower in Europe feels unfair too

cloud1183 · 06/11/2018 17:42

I bit the bullet and got the tropical cherimoya but only because it had some good reviews. Had nectarine blossom and honey 30mls and LBM lotion as my purchases. It’s clear that all these games now are is a means to clear stock. Last time it was the English Oak products and now it’s the summer fragrances

FabulousTomatoes · 06/11/2018 17:48

I’m happy because I was going to order the stuff anyway and the two 100ml blossoms I’ve won are a bonus. I was hoping for more oak and hazelnut though Sad. Will be keeping my eye out for new stuff over the next few days!

Starryskiesinthesky · 06/11/2018 17:53

I'm another one not bothering this time round but secretly quite glad as on previous offers I have spent a lot!

Notmorewashing · 06/11/2018 19:00

Cherimoya Angry

Nearlyadoctor · 06/11/2018 19:08

Well unlike everyone else I’m really pleased, I bought the White Moss and Snowdrop the other day ( which is divine ) and was a bit peed to see the game starting this week and thinking that I should have waited. Today have won the 100ml Tropical Cherimoya which I actually bought a 30ml of on a whim in the summer game. I actually really liked it and got loads of comments how nice it was. Obviously had to buy a candle and soap that I didn’t need to get it..... Shame there isn’t more stuff though as did 5 orders from the summer game.
