Thanks @OvaHere . I’ve got the BTSO Dirty Rice in my basket as I’m tempted to blind buy, it’s a CB exclusive and I keep trying all the codes whenever one is mentioned, doesn’t work.

BDCB take it down to 138.40

Orders over £60 also adds £10 gift voucher to basket.

Now I'm tempted to get Dirty Rice despite what I said 5 minutes ago. 😂

Thanks @OvaHere i tried that before and just been to try again. It’s the Dirty Milk I want sorry for confusion! “A daring gourmand fragrance of creamy milk, caramel & spice with a warm vanilla-musk finish.”

@BakeOffRewatch have you tried CBXBEAUTYCALENDAR or ANNIIE20

Oh that's a shame. The BTSO website does do 15ml of it for $90 (10% off first order) but I suppose it's not cost effective per mil but maybe better than having 50ml of a perfume you might not like.

I think I could get obsessed with BTSO as a brand after Black Creme. I can still smell it this morning and love it.

I sprayed the BTSO musc x last night, it's my favourite from my little discovery set, I'm going to be gutted when it's gone. It's not too expensive, but there's others that I probably would buy first.

I'm hoping (as it's a US site) BTSO have really good BF deals. Their shipping is very fast via Fedex.

I like the hat of responsibility. I only really want 1, maybe 2, of the CB stockings, so I'd be wayyyy overspending to get the goody bag. I need to now remind myself that it's just over a month until ac time. I need to be more responsible, if I need something, I should really raid my ac instead of buying more edits 🤣

I've been trying not to buy things just to get a GWP. They grab you in the moment but if I ride the feeling out I will forget about them. I've learned I also don't like having loads of teeny tiny minis (the stuff that is 5-15ml). Not easy to store and I forget what I have.

The only one that really felt like it was truly worth the splurge this year was the Harrods one that comes with the tote bag. That had a lot of high end stuff and I've used the bag loads.

Yeah, the Harrods one is good and worth it, I've got a few of the tote bags, they're great for holidays 😍 I missed this year's one, by the time I'd decided what I wanted to buy, it was out of stock, so I didn't end up buying anything because I actually didn't need anything. Probably why it took so long to decide 🤣

Dont fancy the CB GWP. I also dont like having to many mini products knocking about, for travel and nights away they are great though.

Boots has hair care Gwp. Looks good!

They are good for that but I think I overestimate how much I travel when thinking 'that will be good for travel'. 😂

@OvaHere Yes i think im guilty of that too🤣

Oh quite impressed, my flannels order for the flannels mens and women fragrance edits. I was expecting a delay as others said those who preordered had them delayed.

For anyone interested, JL have reduced some of their beauty boxes (luckily neither of the ones I’ve purchased recently), so even more bargainous!

That’s my thinking @OvaHere . I have loved everything I’ve tested from BTSO (Dirty Rice, Black Mango, Black Crème and Black Karak) so I assume I’ll love Dirty Milk, especially as the notes are right up my street, vanilla gourmand and spice. I really like the bottle too, and that’s a big part of a £££ purchase for me, the Commodity bottles are boring, and the Ex Nihilo bottles are posh country house to me. I think whatever the current in thing is in fragrance, BTSO have done it. I’ve tried some of the other scents mentioned in the SOTD thread and find there’s something that doesn’t quite fit with me, there’ll be one note I hate or I have to wait for the dry down for it to become pleasant - which I think is ridiculous in a pricey perfume! But the four BTSO I’ve tried have been nice from the off and mellowed into something I love. I thought they were quite unique too but I’m not familiar with fragrance world.

K Beauty edit £40

Anyone who got the Flannels fragrance edit for her, can you let me know if you both Juliette has a Gun perfumes? My box only has the Not a Perfume and Juliette is not in the box, has everyone else received both? x
