Black cafe vetyvr is out of stock (for my birthday pres from dh) - I love the numeg and ginger but can anyone recommend their favourite - I lean towards sandalwoody scents.. thank you

I like grapefruit, lime, basil and mandarin and white jasmine and mint. Probably not your choice though if you prefer the sandalwoody ones. What about the Red Rose one?

Wheelybug · 03/09/2008 10:25

I'm with Stella here - Love all hers and also Verbena. So probably not much help !

Pomegranate noir - lovely warm/rich smell

I do like lime,basil and mandarin but a friend wears it a lot and I want my own scent !! Is the red rose woody underneath do you think ?
What about the 154 one ?

would it be boring of me to stick with nutmeg and ginger ?
I took a chance last on the black coffee and love it so much,so might be worth a gamble on something new

The limey basil one.

thanks cupsoftea !
Blue agave cacao one - anyone got that ? sounds in similar vein to black cafe vetyvr

I have a flange.

Looky here

OK, I stretched the definition a bit, as I'm not a "wheel, pipe, rail, etc."

Also I wanted an F and it was the first thing I thought of.
And it's a terrific word.

I could be flanged.

Ooh sorry, hijacking.

can you believe I'm allergic to Jo Malone? So bloody depressing. Sneezed all through a meeting once with a woman who was wearing it.

midnightexpress · 03/09/2008 13:59

I'm a nutmeg and ginger gal - love it. Friend has the fig and cassis and it's lovely too.

annh · 03/09/2008 14:01

Definitely Pomegranate Noir for me. Think you would be better off sticking to Nutmeg and Ginger rather than be disappointed in something as important as perfume though!

Blue Agava is gorgeous.
Fave scent is the amber and sweet orange but dont know if thats just the candle/home scent tho.
