Ds2 seems to have it now @FestivelyScent 🙄

Asylum say - alot about atm.

Sotd pp mmm btf

Thatsasmashingblouseyouvegoton · 07/11/2022 08:03

Did I tell you all? When pp was being taken down every other day a while back I panicked and bought a spare 50ml of btf! 🤣🤣

I'm honestly REALLY on perfume buying ban now. I know, I know 😬

But I've had 4 x 4160tuesdays customised x 15mls recently and a bottle of Dior Addict. I fear to count my fbs now! 😬🙄😵‍💫🤣💙

I've been absent from this thread so please forgive me for raising this ,sure it's been discussed

Avon Timeless EDT ...not in stock !! discontinued !!!

Surely ,surely not .I use it as a room spray and it's a luxury I afford myself because it makes me feel happy .

Tell me it's still available 🙏

Pigeon31 · 07/11/2022 16:12

sotd: molecule 01 + mandarin

FestivelyScent · 07/11/2022 16:33

Hope your DS is back on form soon @Thatsasmashingblouseyouvegoton

@peridito Yes, I think Timeless has been discontinued. Avon have been wanting to do it for a while, in fact, I think they tried to some time ago but brought it back after an outcry. Who knows whether the same will happen again.

Sorry:(

I mentioned it a while ago alerted by @missbattleaxe :(

I bought a spare off ebay for £16 :(

peridito · 07/11/2022 18:12

Thank you Festivelyscent and Lovelyblouse .I'm a bit shocked ,was unconcernedly buying it in May .And Sad.It had a lovely way of lingering ,not just in the room but on fabric .

I suppose if Avon announced withdrawal in advance it would lead to mass buying and reselling on ebay et al at inflated prices .

Might @missbattleaxe know why Avon have done this? The components too expensive ,hard to source ?

They tried it a few years ago too but customer clamour made them bring it back.

Maybe we should do an e mail campaign!

peridito · 07/11/2022 18:22

Worth a go ,I'm happy to fire one off but would there be some clever way of making a bigger noise ? I'm not au fait with these things but Twitter or Facebook or something ?

Judystilldreamsofhorses · 07/11/2022 20:08

SOTD Liz Earle 15. I am never sure if I like this really.

FestivelyScent · 07/11/2022 22:51

I'm getting thoroughly fed up with this rain - it's been pouring here for two solid weeks now. I know we need it after the long summer drought, but I want crisp frosty mornings and crunchy leaves, not this endless, relentless damp. Bluergh.

Is LE No15 the spicy oriental one @Judystilldreamsofhorses I think I like that one, but I tried it a long time ago. I do find the LEs rather timid though.

SOTN is Ambre Narguile. So warming.

SOTD To the Fairest Cecile. I feel like this sample has lasted me for ages, but it’s finished now. I really liked it.

Judystilldreamsofhorses · 08/11/2022 20:05

SOTD Chanel 19 Poudre.

DramaAlpaca · 08/11/2022 22:03

SOTD Hermes Twilly, the one with extra ginger. I really like this.

SOTD Miller Harris Rose Silence. I'm not normally much for rose scents but I do like this one, very pretty and easy to wear.

Mrcpy · 09/11/2022 11:02

SOTD molecule 01 + patchouli
Important work meeting today so want to smell nice but subtle

DeepDown12 · 09/11/2022 14:01

SOTD is Kayali Amber - I prefer it to Vanilla, I think it is tobacco that makes the difference for me.

PeloFondo · 09/11/2022 17:48

SOTD j lo glow. I just wanted clean and soapy

FestivelyScent · 09/11/2022 21:10

SOTD is Shazam, for a crisp autumn shopping trip. Was lovely coming home in the evening twilight and passing all the lit windows.
