thanks for new thread solocat

Advententhusiast · Yesterday 23:31

Thanks for the new thread.

Well the HN drop was a surprise but unfortunately the full bottles are not brands that I like much. So wont be going for it. I found the one from last years much better with a Ernesto Trudon candle and the Delina but thats all personal. Also underwhelmed by their BAC.

Really sucks SpaceNK will not release a FAC. Its their curration, not a lack of popularity for Fragrance advents

Will focus on Selfridges tomorrow and we will see how it goes. Also off to Harrods to see of they still have instore BACS available. Will get one if so

user7172 · Yesterday 23:39

Thanks @SoloCatπŸ˜ƒ.so I’ve been looking at SFAC and I really fancy some of the fragrances so I’m going to join you tomorrow in trying to get my hands on one!! Does anyone know if they’re dispatching immediately? I’m on holiday for 2 weeks from next Friday 😬.
interesting timing from Harvey Nicks, neither are for me this year.
keeping everything crossed that those beautiful BT calendars arrive very
soon!

ClutteredPalace · Today 03:44

Thanks for the new thread @SoloCat, checking in ready for the SFAC scrum.

LightandBreezy · Today 04:01

I think I've de-influenced myself for Selfridges - every single perfume apart from The Matcha sounds too sweet and gourmand for me.

HollyGolightly4 · Today 04:31

Time check πŸ˜† still saying the queue will open on Thursday 8th October. Erm hello, that's right now!

Was hoping for a night time breastfeeding advantage 🫠
