It's cold outside so the lovely friendly perfumistas are by the fireplace, sniffing our scarves and dreaming of the desert

Go to the editing link in your inbox. Press it until the link is totally highlighted and then click on it. That will take you to the input/ editing bit of the calender.

SOTD Chanel 19. eddie, yes, your review is there. I am really enjoying reading all the calendar posts.

Stinkyeddie · 09/12/2019 11:34

Phew!
Sorry for the denseness Blush

KaliforniaDreamz · 09/12/2019 11:37

Loving the reviews!!

LionelRitchieStoleMyNotebook Re: Rive Gauche, i love it too but be wary of buying for your DM what is sentimental to YOU. I bought my mum some chanel no5 as she wore it throughout my childhood and she has since gone off it!

MrsMoggs · 09/12/2019 12:06

Great review Eddie - sorry that was traumatic.

Stinkyeddie · 09/12/2019 12:11

😁
Much gnashing of teeth here this morning Xmas Grin

FloraMacDonald · 09/12/2019 12:28

Kali do you know if vintage Chanel No. 5 is very different from modern? My mum also wore it through my childhood, but it doesn't smell at all the same to me now. Not sure if it's changed a lot, or just my memory!

Stinkyeddie · 09/12/2019 12:32

Sotd mmm by the fireplace

teta · 09/12/2019 12:37

Sotd is the perfume garden by Marina Barcenilla.
I've just ordered some Arket perfume oil - Oakmoss.
Has anyone tried it or the handwash?
Good review @StinkyEddie.

Stinkyeddie · 09/12/2019 12:47

Thank you!
oakmoss?
Yum yum

Stinkyeddie · 09/12/2019 14:18

UGotTheLook · 09/12/2019 16:04

Does 4160 Tuesdays ever do sales?

Stinkyeddie · 09/12/2019 16:38

Yes.
You've just missed the 3for2 sadly but there will be a sale at the end of january x

FloraMacDonald · 09/12/2019 16:44

Have 4160 stopped doing half price scent of the week? Haven't seen it in a while.

Stinkyeddie · 09/12/2019 16:50

Yes they have.
They won't be doing the 9mls much longer - smallest bottle size will be 15mls.
Obv samples still 2.5mls.

UGotTheLook · 09/12/2019 17:22

Cool. Thanks. I shall have a little wait then....

Tell me, is The Sexiest as nice as people say? Ok for a blind buy or not?

FloraMacDonald · 09/12/2019 17:35

Yes but not as nice as Captured by Candlelight!
Grin

UGotTheLook · 09/12/2019 17:39

I just looked at the notes. And seeing as I already smell of brandy and rum half the time, I'm not sure it's for me..

MrsMoggs · 09/12/2019 19:34

Yep! You can only wear Captured by Candelight in situations where you would be unconcerned by speculation that you keep a hip flask in your handbag/desk drawer. Grin

Controversial, but I don't think the Sexiest Scent is that safe to be honest. It's got a huge synthetic wood note that's marmitey (as in it potentially divides opinion; it doesn't smell of yeast extract Grin).

The sample sets, or the 4 x 9ml offer, are a good way in.
