The perfume shop fragvent just landed - the box is really nice, nicer than previous. I will be opening it all tonight and seeing what I want to sell and what i\ want to keep.

Does anyone have the link for this “luxury” advent?
😊

Thanks @JoRaRaRa you’re a star 🌟 at least you got the fancy Kilian bottle as requested 🤣

ummm this ‘luxury’ calendar puts their regular BAC into perspective 🤭 I am most confused why it is 12 days calendar when there are 24 items enough for full advent 😵‍💫 seems they want us to buy BAC and luxe as ad on…

I anticipate it will be discounted to ~£350 if not less, can’t see it selling out at £410 💸

If I’d have been a little less cowardly, this is what I would have written. ❤️

Almost at the end of the thread, guys. Is anyone up for doing the next one?

I'm relieved that SNK Luxe isn't tempting because I don't have the £410 for it anyway! I think if I were spending that amount, its better to select fewer products myself than have the £1,500 notional value of stuff thats less appealing.

Fingers crossed SNK give us a good fragrance advent now.

I’ll do the thread 🥰

This was me being nice about it. I cursed a bit when I saw @JoRaRaRa post😂

Does this work? https://www.spacenk.com/uk/brands/s/space-nk/12-days-of-luxury-UK200067266.html

New thread….. https://www.mumsnet.com/talk/style_and_beauty/5583821-beauty-advent-calendars-thread-for-spoilers-offers-and-stock-updates

Thanks so much JoRaRaRa 🥰🥰🥰

And full sizes. All the travel sizes are mind boggling. 410 pounds... for this.. i wonder what they were smoking calling it a Luxury Advent and then sticking in AB eye patches in ONE packet, another sleeping mask, L'occitane travel size hand cream lmao

So many repeats and meh products from top brands.

Im sorry but Wtf. Space NK thinks we are total idiots.

@ShineDespiteEverything yes, I like the kilian, but like @XEmeraldx would've liked one of the new cocktail ones, especially the expresso one 😍

@Advententhusiast I too cursed. I was like 'it's fking dog poo' 🤣🤣 at least all of our banks will be relieved 🙄

Having a further look thanks to @JoRaRaRa’s link…as I can’t remember who (sorry) it does look like the fragrance box from last year in a different print, maybe it was supposed to be a fragrance advent! Does it really come to the amount they say?

Me too!! It’s beyond awful and my bank account is delighted

Wow, that luxury calendar is...something. it's one of the least exciting calendars I think I've seen this year and that's saying something given the competition 😅

Space NK are taking the Micheal. I prefer their regular calendar to that!

They been great for the past couple of years, I don’t know how they got it so wrong this year

i do think snk have lost the edge they had . I’ve been with them since the beginning and whilst I use them for my day to day beauty spends and gifts so easily manage to keep deluxe ( not helped by a shop being in my local high street) , they have lost the plot if they think a loccitaine hand cream ( as lovely as it is ) has a place in a £400 “deluxe” AC. It would have been a good addition to the normal £275 BAC.
I was shocked by the poor curation including cheap brands in their main BAC and so have spent £0 with SNK on advent calendars this year .

Space NK have managed to alienate their loyal customer base by excluding most of us from the 12 day advent launch and then taking the actual p**s with the contents. That's an own goal for negative publicity.

Sorry everyone, I posted something in the new chat. (Don’t all rush over there. it is obvs very insightful and amazing, but it can wait). I’ll come back here now.

Space NK are having a laugh. They can jog on with that offering. Very poor. Tbf, I’m relieved I don’t want it.
my BT is dispatched. Fingers crossed parcel flow is a seamless process.

That’s exactly it for me @StressedEric, some of these calendars do not feel like they have been curated. They feel like a supermarket smash and grab, or else a stockroom rummage.

I loved the previous Spacenk in Leeds, it was like going into a pharmacy or an apothecary, and I always felt like I was somewhere special.

I also really rated the Harrogate store. It was smaller but really beautifully laid out and the staff were lovely. Not been for a while though.

Don't forget to give your tracking details to parcel flow. Eek!! Exciting!

just catching up on the 300-400 MN i’ve missed …i didnt get a space nk email telling me about this luxury calendar costing a whopping £410 …and thanks to @JoRaRaRa (who should be renamed shirley holmes for her epic sleuthing) , the contents appears to rathar pants ….

My boots skincare advent arrived today. Obviously it’s not a luxe one, but for £56 it’s excellent value for day to day skincare. Only 3 things I don’t want (the soap & glory vanilla mist, pimple patches and the zeroid cream). They’re probably not even worth selling so I may donate them, as I don’t know anyone who would want them.
