Hi there APJ,
Somehow the day got away from me. Dog Walks, Meetings, Lunch, Art, Afternoon Tea, Dinner and a Movie (Murder On The Orient Express).
While I was doing all this I had a VERY exciting box arrive from a recent Retail Therapy Session at LuckyScent. Con’t wait to get my sniff on these beauties.

Ohhh! Lucky you. Cafe Tuberosa is an almost for me. I love its coffee-choc blast, but it settles down into “something” sweet. The first five minutes–yes. And I love the Histoires set–wound up getting a few 30 mls after trying it. I’m looking forward to hearing about these!

Two things I really love: Coffee and Tuberose. Let’s see how a skin test goes Shiva-woman.

I love Luckyscent packages. Looks like you’ll have a fun weekend with yours. This past week, I received my first Serge Lutens FB by way of a Luckyscent special. I am now the very happy owner of a full bottle of Bois et Fruits. The perfect scent for this season. I should be satisfied, right? Well, I am, but I’m also really really wanting a bottle of Ormonde Woman. Sigh. Will this insatiable desire for perfume ever end?

Yes, I’ll be wearing at least two of them today at some point Lizbee,
Woo Hoo! Bois et Fruits YUM!
Yes, there will come a time when you’re less insatiable. It hasn’t happened for me yet but most people cool off after a few years.

Hey Crikey,
WAITING is awful, but exciting and full of expectation, but AWFUL.

Can’t wait to hear what you think of the Cafe Tuberosa. I love anything Tuberose but hear it’s quite patch heavy. That may rule it out for me without even testing it. Have fun with your haul!

Thanks Kandice.
I’ll be wearing it tomorrow, give you a heads up after I do.

A friend and I each bought a split of VC & A Bois d’Iris. She received our package this week, and said that it was gorgeous, but I will have to wait to smell it until I see her next weekend. ☹️

Those VC&A Prives are very wearable, I like a few of them SunnyDay. Amber Imperial is the bottle I have, enjoy your iris.

Eva Kant I am in love with, Explorer is very well made dry smelling spicy & liquidnight I think is well made to but I think I need to do a lot more testing
