Unexpectedly yes!

Oriental Dream by Reminiscence 100ml EDP

 

[Texanna]

Vintage Gucci pour Homme NOS (1976).

That was quite a find!

 

[LatinNote]

Bought the signature Tommy Bahama for Men 3.4 oz.

 

[Texanna]

A decant of Diptyque Eau Duelle. Hoping it will work as a summer to fall transition scent. If it works then I’ll invest in a full bottle.

Also picked up a bottle of Goutal Myrrhe Ardente lotion. I recently broke out a decant of the perfume that’s been untouched for years. Remember now why I liked it! Fingers crossed that the lotion will help me stretch that decant out for as long as possible!

 

[Le Fleur]

I found DSH Perfumes large catalog hard to dive into, but I finally ordered samples of L'etole de Vision, Une Robe de Zibeline, Passport a' paris, Le Jade, and Pandora. Excited to sample this house!

I have a large, scattered sample selection (at least 35) from DSH that I have to dig into as well. I’ll be curious to see your comments.

Wonderful purchases!

Chanel Pour Monsieur EDT Concentrée (NOS), I'm a fan of the original EDT. Also interested to see how this compares to the current EDP.

 

[RawM.I.A.]

Thnx Hednic.

If you want the aromas of a barbershop you got it.

Very nice!

I received a free sample of Aventus. Someone please invite me somewhere important.

 

[JBHoren]

Not today... a couple of days ago -- a little travel bag with some Giorgio of Beverly Hills for Men products: a miniature of the EDT, a bar of soap, and a 1.7oz tube of the shaving cream (the last was what I really wanted, a 5oz tube going for $50, while the travel bag cost all of $19.99, including S/H). Too bad it didn't also include a matching miniature of the GBH for Men ASB. Click on the photo for a link to the eBay item.

 

[JBHoren]

I just now bought a full (OK, minus one shpritz) 1.7oz bottle of Sarah Jessica Parker Stash... a private seller, from whom I've bought almost all of my decants -- the proverbial "I got a guy who..."

Edit: NO! It's NOT the 1.7oz/50ml bottle! It's the 3.4oz/100ml bottle!!! (he shoots, he scores!)

 

[Kotori]

After more than a year of pondering it, and having all but the tiniest droplet left in my sample, I finally pulled the trigger on Chypre Azural by Les Indemodables. (FYI @Cook.bot)

YSL Babycat

Jealous of all you that have the option of getting this! Haha.

 

[Sandy]

D&G Italian Love

Last week I tried it at Douglas, and in the shop I didn't find it really interesting. Yet, after 1-2 hours my skin radiated briliiantly, and the paper-strip was very pleasant as well. Maybe I'll check it one more time.

 

[RawM.I.A.]

It's available to everyone, unfortunately at a reseller's price to most of us in the states.

haha yeah I guess that's true. For a low price of an extra $100 minimum I can have it too

Ok I'll rephrase, jealous of those who can buy it at MSRP lol

 

[mixerscent]

Gucci Rush for Men 50ml NOS. I like the packaging, including the shower gel, it's obviously made for those in a Rush

Thank you.

You can buy two, you know.

Roja Parfums - Elysium

Finally pulled the trigger on this bright fresh amazingness of a scent. Much needed addition to my limited number of “summer” scents.

 

[Lovescully]

Lexington Avenue by Bond No 9 ​

 

[Le Fleur]

Purchased samples of the two new Motif Olfactif fragrances, Eclat de Santal and Sentier des Pins.

I will make sure to report in What Did You Try Today?, she was kind enough to throw in an extra sample of Foxy as well

 

[JBHoren]

Earlier this evening I snagged a brand-new, 50ml tube of Giorgio of Beverly Hills Extraordinary After Shave Balm. Together with the matching EDT and shaving cream, it completes the trifecta. BOLO for the upcoming ShaveOTD post!

TF Grey Vetiver EDP, this just arrived in my local TF counter yesterday. I think it's been reformulated as it was sold out worldwide. It's missing the tart citrus top and now has a vegetal opening. I'll leave it for a few weeks and try it again. Maybe needs time in the bottle.

I heard about this as well, I’ve long replaced Grey Vetiver EDP with Beau De Jour Signature they both do the same thing and serve similar purposes Beau De Jour Signature is leagues ahead of Grey Vetiver EDP imo. These reformulations are annoying especially when you enjoy a fragrance!

The underlying sweetness of Grey Vetiver EDP is also missing in the reformulation. If it's of any interest, the batch code for the new version starts with A42, whereas my older version purchased just before the reformulation is B11. I prefer Grey Vetiver which dry and crisp for the summer heatwave weather we're having now. Beau de Jour Signature is a little warmer and I feel it's more suitable for spring weather.

Not today, rather two weeks ago -
