Oh my goodness, my HN/TPS box arrived. What a beauty!

MrsM I got Feminite so if you're still up for that swap let me know. I'm away this weekend but can post when I get back.

My Experimental Perfume Club was Fig Neroli which I'm very happy about (although wouldn't have said no to the Rhubarb either). The Tiziana Terenzi oudh smells absolutely fabulous; I can't wait to try it properly. Currently have a spritz of the Memo which is a sweet citrusy leather - it's good so far.

I can't believe the size of the samples and the value for money. Very impressed indeed. Feels like Christmas Grin

Body - should I swap with Maud so you still have an option to swap for a Fleur d'Oranger if one turns up?

Judystilldreamsofhorses · 14/08/2019 21:22

SOTD Chanel 19. Dying of period pain, yuck.

God, I love this stuff ❤

MrsMoggs · 15/08/2019 08:58

Yes, the Bella Oudh is great; rich, complex, seductive in the best sort of way, although tantalisingly barely there.

Have just got my head around The Experimental Perfume Club offering perfumes for layering, each classified as top, mid or base. I got the Fig and Neroli too Maud and will be experimenting later...

Hoooo · 15/08/2019 09:20

Sotd Z&V this is her

CountFosco · 15/08/2019 20:42

SotD MG Lemon. I needed it for a telecon this afternoon.

Hoooo · 15/08/2019 21:05

Sote avon lbd

Hoooo · 15/08/2019 21:25

I've got a bottle of MG lemon going spare if anyone wants it?

I much prefer fire (which I also have thanks to a lovely perfumista...)

I have so many lemon/citrus scents now I just never reach for it anymore.

Sote deep heat :(

Judystilldreamsofhorses · 15/08/2019 22:16

SOTD JHAG Mad Madame.

hooooo (how many os?) I would love to try Lemon. I don’t have anything unloved to swap, but happy to decant bits in exchange?

Marvellous.
If you pm me I'll send it in (minus cannonball lid!!)
I missed out on a bottle ambre l occitane on ebay. I'm livid.

MrsMoggs · 16/08/2019 08:20

Hoo - wasn't me, but it could've been! Smile We might need to be careful not to bid against each other on this one, esp if you are also after the old formula!

Hoooo · 16/08/2019 08:37

Nah, it was a newer one :)

Hoooo · 16/08/2019 09:40

All boxed up ready judy
Pm me x

Bodyonme · 16/08/2019 10:20

Yeah go for it MrsMoggs, and if anyone wants to swap their Serge Lutens for the Feminite du bois then please PM me.

I have tried all the scents now I think and I'm looking to swap the Bella Oudh and Gentle Fluidity for Memo, Eau d'Hadrien or Daisen-en.

I got the Neon Jasmine in the Experimental ones and jasmine isn't really my bag so I'd also happily swap that for another variety. Or does anyone know what would layer nicely with it to tone it down a bit?

Sotd is the PP version of Blue Agave and Cacao, no idea if it's a good copy but it's nice and fresh!

Hooooo, I very nearly went for By the Fireplace too, it's so wintry!!

Hoooo · 16/08/2019 10:58

My back up nottle arrived earlier along with the fragrance dust

Hoooo · 16/08/2019 12:24

Bottle?
Stupid fat fingers!

CountFosco · 16/08/2019 13:44

SotD Gingembre (half price from M&S). Still swithering over the HN box. I might have to give in at some point.

MrsMoggs · 16/08/2019 17:26

Happy to swap either my Memo or Eau d'Hadrien for your Bella Oudh Body?

cantbelievemyeyes · 16/08/2019 19:55

Has anyone else tried the Robert Graham Fortitude sample in the HN box? It's bloody lovely- tobacco and tonka. A lady in the pub has just come over to ask me what my perfume is Grin

Hoooo · 16/08/2019 19:57

Please stop.

It sounds soooo good.

😫😫😫

Geraniumpink · 16/08/2019 20:27

I’m off to London next week and want to visit the Covent Garden Bloom shop. Does anyone know if you can buy the sample sets in the shop? Or do you have to order online? I have a limited budget that I want to make the most of!

MrsMoggs · 16/08/2019 22:04

No sure about the sets Geranium - call ahead? They do make up individual samples on the spot of whatever you fancy Smile.

MrsMoggs · 16/08/2019 22:14

Yes, Can't - I like a rich tobacco Smile. Not so sure about the other two, but DS is keen.
