12 MONTH ANNIVERSARY GIVEAWAY!!
Every Birthday deserves presents so we have an extraordinary prize today.
When I was in Paris in February, shopping at Guerlain on the first floor of the Galleries Lafayette, I was given a special gift with purchase that is so precious to me that it would NEVER get opened. It is a four pack of beautifully boxed Eau Imperial 40g soaps in a very desirable presentation case. This GWP was not even in the regular gift line but an exclusive gift for the people invited to Guerlain’s Christmas Party in 2012 and the last of its kind that the girl had to give away. THIS IS SPECIAL!!!
If we make 100 individuals commenting I will add in one Kerosen X Pegasus Perfumed Soap made especially for RELIEF Fundraiser made of Coconut, Palm and Castor oils from sexy John at Kerosene Fragrances as a second giveaway!!
HOW DO YOU WIN?
Leave a comment below wishing us congratulations. That’s IT!

Hi Ladies,
The only emails I ever look for at the end of a tiring day are yours.
I have been a perfume junkie since I was a little girl and my Nanna gave me a bottle of Norman Hartnel “In Love”.
I WAS in love and have been ever since. If I close my eyes I can still conjure up that beautiful scent now, fifty years later!
What a gift she gave me, I life time love of fragrance.
