When counting the position of bottles, SKIP the big one in the middle.
(Name that one separately.)- If your browser resizes the picture to fit your window, the bottles will not be as easy to see.
- Give as much detail as you can (gender, special editions, etc.).
Process:
- Submit your answers by posting to this thread. Indicate the Row # and bottle position. You may post multiple responses to this thread until you have named 5 bottles. (Do not send answers via PM.)
- You must name the house and the fragrance for your answer to count. Details that distinguish one bottle from others in the same line should be included. (Example: CK One Summer 2005 is a different bottle than CK One Summer 2007. "CK One Summer" would be an incomplete answer.) If you don't see your answer on the master list, I'm looking for more detail.
- If some bottles remain unnamed toward the end, I'll open up the contest to allow more guesses per person.
- I will keep updating the master list as time allows, to reflect the bottles that have been named, but a review of the previous posts may help before you submit your answers.
- Post new answers in a new reply. If you only edit your first post, I may not catch the update.
- Have fun!
