Broderie, is a perfume that is highly sophisticated, kind of Classy, and famously known as "the Jewels" of the body. It is very rare and you can hardly see another perfume that has similar smell....
My initiation with perfumes in High School was Aqua Velva (wasn't everybody's then) but became bored pretty soon, I moved up to English Leather (still in HS) but after just one bottle I couldn't...
I got a sample of this one from the Imaginary Authors website. This one is a smokey, woody vanilla fragrance. It kinda reminds me of cocoa, since it is very dry and has a bittersweet smell to it....
Could've been Boss, Gucci, Versace, CK for a solid sum of dollars, but it's not. He is James Bond 007 cheappie and that's the only thing that's cheap - the price. Quite cool fragrance, I have to...
As a big fan of the first Liz Earle fragrance I had high hopes for this, but I am very disappointed. The mandarin lasts about five seconds, then a couple of minutes of a, not unpleasant, generic...
Rose 31 is closed and I am collecting payments now =) Anyone for Santal 33 and Oud 27? Also getting close to Nov... so please continue to sign up for the city-exclusives while it is available for a limited time!
Please fill the last Santal 33 spot. Not only because it is a very nice frag indeed that will make you smell good, but also because it would be an act of kindness towards a bunch of fellow basenoters waiting for their frag fix!

No guarantees that I'll ride to the rescue but I've just placed an order to sample Santal 33 so I'll need to assess whether it is full bottle-worthy...if so, I would consider taking the 10th slot.
Went through the same process, and deemed it bottle-worthy. Hopefully we'll make it happen by the end of this week. I'm actually surprised it didn't fill up already... I guess even the hardcore perfumephiles are feeling the pinch at the moment and became more cautious about blind buys
Splits have to be 50ml or greater per forums rules!
Is there a simple way of getting samples of the city exclusives? I'd love to try Gaiac, Aldehyde, Poivre and Musc, but not sure I want to do a blind buy..
Please refer to the rules set out by stuigi at the top of the Split board http://www.basenotes.net/threads/283242-Splits
It says "A bulk purchase must be 250 ml. or larger, must be broken down into units of no smaller than 50 ml., and must be arranged in advance of the purchase."
Please PM me if you have any questions and keep the sign-up coming!
Try splitting a 500ml bottle into 10mls. Example: find 50 (FIFTY!) people who are interested in a split, collect the money (it takes AGES to get that done, plus some whill pull out or suddenly "disappear" as they are too embarrassed to send you a PM saying they changed their mind), divide the juice into 50 little containers and ship them out. All that without making any (significant) profit. Does it make sense now?
Just FYI, samples of City-Exclusives are available from Le Labo stores/online/Luckyscent for the month of Oct so if you need to sample them get them now and join us for the splits in Nov.!
Ok guys sadly we need 3 more people to fill Oud cuz some folks dropped out due to the wait... anyone else out there dying for some? now is the time to speak up =)
Guys thanks for everyone who is currently on the Rose 31 split and paid, 2 spots opened up because 1 person backed out and 1 person just hasn't responded to me.... So I've got the bottle coming and 2 spots are up for grabs.
One of the fellows who backed out contacted me about taking his place on the Rose 31 split. i told him yes, and he's going to get in touch with you, but I thought I'd just step in and say, Yes, I'd like one of those spots so sign me up.
