Tom Ford has released a set of 4ml roll-on vials of all 12 private blend scents.
the set sell for $225. This might be good way for people who are undecided about which ones they like to get all of then without spending $2000

So far, I like one: Moss Breches. Can I get a 4ml roll of that one, solo?

That works out to $18.75 a piece Rugs.... I see a whole new wave of group purchases on the imminent horizon. I would dearly love a Tuscan Leather and Oud Wood one too!

I'm excited about smelling these. But I have to say, I hate roll on bottles. To me, it just feels yucky when I'm applying it.

I have a feeling that we'll start seeing these sets broken up and sold on eBay....

Mmm... wouldn't decants cost less?

By the way, how do the roll-on's look? Are they sexy?

Personally, I've never been a fan of roll-ons. Like Mike says, it feels kinda yucky...... like I'm applying some anti-antiperspirant deostick in my underarm.

I just noticed that Neiman Marcus has them on pre-order (expected to ship no later than November 27th) on their website now, with a picture of the coffret. Link here: http://www.neimanmarcus.com/store/ca...741cat16880748

also, the perfumed court has separated these and is selling the roll-ons separate.

Are they 4ml or 2ml? The picture on the perfumed court website references a manufacturer's rollerball (that looks like the one on the Neiman Marcus page) that is 2ml.

24ml for $225 = OUCH!

Kind of surprised this doesn't include any of the newer private blend releases. Would have been a good way to get more buyers.

2ml kinda makes more sense, as the price for 4ml based on a 50ml bottle price seems too good to be true considering the smaller amount and fancy packaging.

You can zoom in on the Neiman Marcus photo and see the size details on the box. And, sure enough, as Mike points out, they're 2ml.

It's not really worth it for 2ml surely? I'd rather go to Harrods and sniff them all and just spend the money on a full bottle of one I like.

I wish someone would but this already, and then sell all of them here on BN. I want just the Tobacco Vanille one.
