Has anyone bought these and do they last? Quite like the Osmanthus one....the new Herbae also smells nice...x

I tend to buy the cherry special editions, hoping they will, but sadly they don't last. They are pricey for what you get.

Yes, they're great. Good quality. If you sign up to their email list, you'll get loads of offers, sometimes 30% off and lots of freebies. (and you won't get jumped on by the assistants!)

Definitely agree about the offers and freebies. I tend to buy the shower gel and hand creams if I like a particular one.

I bought the Herbae but you can't smell it once it's out the bottle . Wouldn't bother again .

I love the Cherry Blossom one, DH bought me the perfume, shower gel, soap body lotion & hand crème for Xmas, nice light fragrance.

The Rose one lasts a bit but the others just disappear within minutes especially the lovely Verbena ime

I have a few of the L’occitane fragrances and they last well on me. I like the sound of the new Herbae. I have the original one, which I can still smell the day after I’ve sprayed it. Interesting how it can be so different on different people.

They used to do a lovely honey and vanilla scent which was so warm and delicious. That lasted for ages. Since they stopped making, I e tried the Cherry Blossom, the Pivoine, the Terre de Lumiere ,Verbena and a couple of others. None of them last at all. Very disappointing, not to say expensive. I won't buy their perfume any more. It's better to buy the shower gel and body lotion - cheaper, scent lasts just as long and at least they have another purpose.

Was that Ambre? I loved that. They tried to convince me something else was replacing it but I then found out that was also going. Haven't found anything I like as much.
