💄 More Calendars & Spoilers

Sent from my iPhone

I’m also a definite no for Jarrolds, even though I have a voucher for 15% off. Just very mundane, CT heavy (well worn choices/samples at that) and I hate getting nail polish. That’s a DOD for me. Actually, nothing stands out in it at all.

Selfridges launches on the 8th. Confirmed by email!!!!

Just had an email confirming Selfridges fragrance will be launched 8/10. Ther is a sign up for key holders but no more info at the moment!

Thanks, ordered this for my 25 year old son.

Any mention of the price? I don't have the email, not sure why as I signed up and I'm in the unlocked thingy. I get their other emails.

No mention of the price, but confirmation of contents and sizes:

Fragrance Du Bois Patchouli Gourmand 30ml / Le Labo The Matcha 29 15ml / Bibbi The Last Mango 30ml / Mind Games Queening 15ml / New Notes Latte Di Cherry 15ml / Thameen Riviere 50ml / INITIO Oud for Greatness 10ml / Musk Therapy 10ml and Lift Me Up 10ml / V Canto Arkano Della Luna 15ml / EX NIHILO Lust in Paradise 50ml / Penhaligon’s The Tragedy of Lord George 10ml and Halefeti 10ml / Liquides Imaginaire Blanche Bête 7.5ml and Liquide 7.5ml / Ormonde Jayne Suede Silhouette 88ml.

Just to point out on the LiB grooming advent box, it's just a load of stuff in a box, nothing is wrapped or numbered, so you would need to wrap the items yourself if it's to be used as a proper advent calendar.

That suits me then - I don’t have to backfill the bits I’m taking out 😂

Thank you 😊 I hope I can bag one 🙏🏻

I got the Selfridges email. Definitely going to get one or two of those if the price isn’t high. I’m really pleased the Ex Nihilo is 50ml although I have three new 7.5ml from the Harrods Scent Seeker/ Vinted I guess I could move along or keep for my purse.

Looks like JL Fragrance calendar is sold out!

Suprised it lasted this long. It released (2nd time) on weds!

Now that makes me think I should pick mine up even though I’d resolved to let it auto return 😂 major FOMO.

And the Selfridges website crashes.... October 8th is going to be manic.

😳 I hope there's a cap on how many people can buy, otherwise the people on first are just going to buy a load to resell. Greedy gits!

It's going to be horrid. 😒

I don’t understand this phrase ‘too many k-beauty’. That’s not, like, a real thing, surely???

Good joke!!

Jarrolds is not for me. No Trinny, lots of CT. An easy swerve!

There seems to be an error in the email. Its either The Noir 29 or The Matcha 26. I reckon the last bit as The Matcha 29 doesnt exist and there is definately Matcha on the photo.

If I can get it Ill pick up 2 advents. Would really like the Ex Nihilo and a back up bottle plus The Matcha 26 in 30ml total.

I also like Patchoulli but not perse in every perfume. Really want to smell it.

The Thameen and The Bibbi are definately not for me. Too bad they are the full sizes.

Dont think the Ormonde Jane is my thing either and ChatGPT agrees so will see.

The Penhaligons are too masculine for me but I do like them on someone else.

Dont know the following and will try to smell:

Mind Games Queening 15ml / New Notes Latte Di Cherry 15ml / Thameen Riviere 50ml / INITIO Oud for Greatness 10ml / Musk Therapy 10ml and Lift Me Up 10ml / V Canto Arkano Della Luna 15ml / / Liquides Imaginaire Blanche Bête 7.5ml and Liquide 7.5ml

Look fantastic fragrance advent is all present and correct.
Just waiting to find out what is in the perfume shop advent now if anyone has any updates since the partial reveal a few weeks ago.

Exactly what I was thinking...

The Look Fantastic fragrance calendar seems to have sold out already . I was going to get it for my daughter. Does anyone know if they will do a second run?\

Glad oud for greatness in Selfridges too, Chat seems to think ds would like that so on the hunt for a cheapish bottle for his advent!

finally the selfridges fragrance calendar reveal !

Oh lord, October 8th is going to be a nightmare. No offence to anyone that wants more than one but I really hope they cap it at one per customer to give everyone a fair chance. I know their queueing system is quite good from the BAC release but you have to be able get on the website first 🙈
