I have Scent too. A fellow BNer sent me a sample and I fell in love and I had to get a bottle.

I took advantage of the 15% of at Perfume.com tonight and got 2 bottles of my beloved and discontinued Victoria Secret...So In Love. Not only is it hard to find, but what I do find is not discounted that much. So, I quickly jumped on the offer. I love this scent in the winter. I get so many compliments on it. WooHoo!!

jillie has been a very good girl this month... nothing! so far anyway
(haha to be read as... i'm broke :P)
tempting to go buy myself some tea rose... and maybe a small bottle of shalimar (blindly though... i think it's probably a bit too mature n sophisticated for my taste but oh well)

Must... resist....

Oh Tang, don't resist!!!

Got Ruggles' bottle of Vol de Nuit Evasion yesterday.

Got some more Aqua Allegoria's in the mail today - which are supposed to be Christmas gifts for others - but I'm going to test them ...just one teeny spray... to see if they should stay here with me instead

(I am developing an illness called ITGAP- Inability to Give Away Perfume)

Got Foliflore and Pampelune today , 2 Rosa Magnificas came the other day - stashed one and am giving the other one away (patting myself on the back)

squirt squirt ...............................................

Oh dear ....I figured if I ordered AA's I wouldn't be tempted - because so many of the reviews pooh poohed them as Guerlain Light etc etc - but they smell divine on me... this is terrible!!!!

Maybe I should just have gifts delivered direct

I'm hardly one to talk...
I did JUST what Tink did, without peeking here-
Also, backup bottle of Rykiel Woman.
Lalique, le Parfum was marked down, so...
AND Bourbon French sweetly sent me samps, so 1/4 oz.'s of Dark Gift, Violet, Mimosa, Vetivert, and Kus-Kus will arrive soon.
Please execute me now.
WITHOUT the blindfold, please.
OY !

Stocking up on depleted decanting supplies. Just dropped $35 at PilotVials.com. Not quite as thrilling as other purchases you all have been touting here.

Don't worry, DeeOlive, ITGAP runs its course (although, it sometimes takes years to get over it) .

Box set of Tabu at Walmart - $13.97 for big spray bottle of cologne, little violin-shaped bottle of cologne (remember the ad with the violinist sweeping up his accompanist for a big kiss?) sparkle powder and lotion. Powder and lotion smell kinda nasty, but they're for free anyhow. Power and lotion formulated in China with scent oils produced in USA, according to the box. Hope there are no extra added ingredients with unfortunate side effects.

I couldn't let November go by and not have a post on this thread now could I? I took advantage of the Beautyhabit sale and ordered a sample pack ...

Ha! *I'm* usually the little devil sitting on someone else's shoulder, talking them into something.

What I lack in self-control I make up for in paralyzing indecision.

I don't usually keep up here (anything you say can be used against you in court...), but I must crow. Unopened bottle of the reissue of Coty Chypre arrived- afraid to open it.

Hi Quarry... could you please start the December "Today I Bought" thread for us. I have always enjoyed reading your introduction and peeping into the others' shopping bags

Yesterday, I bought Parfums de Nicolai Cologne Sologne for DH, Eau Exotique Eau Fraiche and Mimosaique for gifts. If I love Eau Exotique, I'll keep it and get her something else.

I have NOT been a good girl, but am jealous, Kanutta, because Yves Rocher's Iris Noir is not yet available in the US! Let us know how it is...
