Excited for SNK and Harrods to launch their fraggy Cals.

Meanwhile I've turned from fragrance to lip gloss as the bobbi brown gloss bomb vault has launched and im embracing my inner teenager.

I seem to have an obsession for blushers at the moment ☺️

The Vieve lip dew ones are very good. I've got the Cherry shade.

I think I managed to over do Mojave Ghost... In office today

I have that - it came with the Elemis cherry cleansing balm.

I seem to have developed an obsession with the gloss bombs somehow - I don't know why as they last about 5 minutes especially if you have a cup of tea or something. I bought the vault last year and sold half kept half so will do similar. It's the small things in life!

Have you seen the new Fenty holiday sets with the tri colour glosses? My inner child really wants them.

Put on Commodity Milk Orchid Ltd edition today. Got myself in a pickle with this one. I resisted the first launch which sold out in a few hours then succumbed to FOMO and bagged one on pre order for a 2nd drop which will arrive sometime this month or next.

Friend got it in the first launch and gave me her travel size (that comes with the set). It's nice but not sure if I really want a full size now. Debating trying to cancel the order or just Ebaying it when it comes.

On my way back home ISSEY MIYAKE LE SEL EDP from the perfume shop advent. Very nice fresh/marine my husband found it too feminine. I will happily use it.

SOTE is Commodity Milk. It was mentioned on the BAC thread and I’ve got a travel size but couldn’t remember if I liked it. It’s not for me. I was getting milk bottle sweets when I smelled the bottle but there’s a nasty blast of strong alcohol that is giving hand sanitiser.

Commodity is a real mixed bag for me. Paper is too sharply alcohol, Book is just ok but I like Juice.

JoRaRaRa · 01/10/2025 19:58

I'm trying another sample that I've received, the Lancome La vie est belle rose extraordinaire. It's like a floral cosy, so perfect for this time of year 😊 it has warmth and depth. It feels elegant, but it also itches my nose a little 🤣

IDontHateRainbows · 01/10/2025 21:29

Crivelli Safran Secret tonight. Smells like steam from an iron ( in a good way)

I did wonder about those and whether they'd all get mixed up after a few goes...

flowerbomb extreme is not one for me, but I do enjoy sweet scent in my bathroom and the 5 ml will be used for that. If Harrods has too much oud for me, and Space NK too much you, not a perfume - the perfume shop had a lot of very sweet, too sweet for me scents. There are some I surprisingly really enjoy!

IDontHateRainbows · 02/10/2025 07:15

Cherry bouquet by afnan, the dupe for lost cherry. V impressed for a dupe.

I'm in London tomorrow with a £30 liberty voucher burning a hole in my pocket! Liberty have just released a new fragrance with tobacco notes, sounds quite manly but if I get the chance will test it as im getting into tobacco notes although tobacco vanille whi h i got a sample of recently was not as good as I remembered.

Fell in love again with penhaligon's babylon yesterday which I tested in store. Its only available in the big bottles although perfumista do samples. Lovely spicy vanilla a bit like eau duelle, but nicer.

Ariana grande REM today, one of my new favourites

MiaN · 02/10/2025 12:45

I have travel Babylon, it's lovely

MiaN · 02/10/2025 13:17

I am really surprised how much I like La Bomba. I probably won't buy another bottle unless they're is great deal but I will enjoy the travel from the advent

I like most Herrera but that one seemed very sweet to my nose, too sweet. But it is very popular. I'm wearing another Herrera tonight, Very good girl (not the elixir) . I liked the elixir more than this at first but it's grown on me. It's a fruity cherry whereas VGG elixir is more almondy. It's got a lovely moreish quality to it.

I've no idea what this smells like, but im so tempted to purchase it just for the bottle 😍 Has anyone smelt this?

The website also has some very expensive perfumes reduced, but the bottles aren't quite as fancy 😁

I’ve got an Anna Sui one that I bought for the bottle. It’s a hot air balloon. Not sure I’ve every tried it

MiaN · 03/10/2025 05:20

La Bomba is sweet Bomba but for some reason I enjoy it. Its not one I will wear outside the house as it isn't my personality but it is a very happy scent, it did lift my mood yesterday

MiaN · 03/10/2025 05:21

Huh, when will Space Nk tell us the content of fragrance advent!

Bal D'Afrique for me today
