No perfume, but my brother made me a beautiful cherry wood occasional table. My father gave me some cash and that will go toward my perfume education by which I mean samples, samples, and more samples. My boyfriend gave me a fantastic graphic novel.

Can we mention what we bought for ourselves? Christmas Eve (afternoon) the postman delivered my bottle of Tom Ford's Black Orchid. It was a blind buy other than having read the reviews on BN. I took a quick whiff from the bottle but didn't want to spray it on me since I was running late for a family gathering and wasn't sure how fem it would smell on me. Went to the event, got back about 9:00PM, doused my self, took the dog for a walk in the crisp, cold winter night.
Quite different than what I expected but I really like it. More incense-y than I expected but that's OK. I expected something similar to Dior's Hypnotic Poison but it's not like that at all on me. More like Midnight Poison I'd say.
Not sure yet if it will be something I'd wear out... but, will for sure enjoy at home.

I received a bottle of La Petite Robe Noire extrait from my SO. Also a bottle of L by Lolita Lempicka. I bought that for myself but my husband intercepted it before I had a chance to open and it became a 'gift' from him for Christmas. Other goodies included some books, jewellery and chocs.

Aqua Fahrenheit as a gift from Macy's and since I have the time off I bought a few others from other basenotes members.

Got no fragrance gifts! My poor spouse took my wishlist to the tiny Sephora in our JC Penney and asked for Tokyomilk and Parfums de Nicolai. He says they had no idea what he was talking about. But, before Christmas I gave myself a partial belljar pf Chergui from ebay.
