Today I Bought - September 2010

[domperrier]

A stunning vintage example domperrier. Is there anything inside?

Just air I'm afraid!

But now the full-of-yummy-Arpege boule I bought earlier can join her FATTER sister in communal bliss!

[thelazydog]

My bottle of Sicily by Memento arrived!
The oudh in it smells fantastic!

[N_Tesla]

A most wonderful fragrance purchased today; Amber Sultan.

I agree. My favorite amber. Hands down.

[petruccijc]

Chanel Coromandel

[Candy Perfume Boy]

I bought a 100ml bottle of Bang by Marc Jacobs for my boyfriend. It's one of his birthday presents but I'm sure I may get some use out of it...

[Mimi Gardenia]

Mitsouko extrait.

[domperrier]

Today, my Molto Missoni parfum arrived!

[Mimi Gardenia]

Domperrier- that is cute !

[cello]

Chanel Coromandel

Joe, finally! It's lovely, huh!

[Mondamin]

Not today, but yesterday I bought a new bottle of Shalimar. It's a LE bottle Oiseau de Paradis.

[Mimi Gardenia]

Lovely purchases people !

Ordered samples from Luckyscent - all Amouage. I must re sniff a few of them .

[Kiliwia]

Today I bought Safari by Ralph Lauren, thanks for the suggestion Bossa Nova!!

[Lessa]

Bought a 15ml bottle of Tauer Carillon pour un Ange today after sampling it. Wasn't sure if I'd like it, but I really do. This is not everyone's cup of tea, I'm sure, but very complex and lovely to me. I must say that I'm really making up for my 5 months of not buying anything this month!

[Lessa]

Today, my Molto Missoni parfum arrived!

How is it? I love Missoni! Can't wait to sample this one!

[domperrier]

How is it? I love Missoni! Can't wait to sample this one!

Lessa, it's very fruity, bright and uplifting! Just like the cuteness of the bottle that Mimi G mentioned.

The downside is that my nose detects the benzoin note very early in the opening, so...

It may have been discontinued because it treads the dreaded line between floral and fruity. I tried very hard to find another one like this on eBay and elsewhere, but came up empty-handed.

Must not be many bottles of the parfum concentration floating around...

And the best part is that this deal only cost me $25.99 including shipping!

[chengfun]

Just ordered Roja Dove Scandal.

[donna255]

A bottle of Daim Blond yesterday.

[bookwyrmsmith]

My Guerlain Samsara Shine -lovely fruity vanilla roses
backup(3rd)of Y edt byYSL-the other two bottles and mini are all splash this one sprays
backup(2nd)Isabella Rosselini's Manifesto-a fav tea scent and it was only $3.25 +6.99 shipping!
Probable first backup Jessica McClintock for my Mom-I gave her a full bottle her other one only had a tiny trace at the bottom.
So if counting bottles 2nd backup for her but who's counting?
all arrived yesterday or today -got server dumped off BN yesterday and couldn't report

[bookwyrmsmith]

I forgot ! Istopped at a thrift store and got about a half a bottle of Beach by Bobbi Brown for fifty cents!

[G.303]

I went to Saks yesterday and purchased a large bottle of Union Square by Bond No.9.....I sampled this and just fell in Love with this fragrance!!!

Reporting back on the Ineke After My Own Heart purchase from E-bay. Absolutely lovely, wearable lilac. I love lilac but it usually doesn't play well with other scents and as a soliflor just sits there- as some have noted- it can be boring on your skin. This is the whole dang lilac bush in a spring breeze. Couldn't be happier.

Also received in mail today:
Partial bottle Alien. My first Mugler.
And a blind buy of Daliflor Love the bottle, will test juice later

[Le Grand Duc]

[petruccijc]

L'Artisan Vanilia

[shadesofbleu]

I didn't buy a fragrance, but I got a FREE mini of Shalimar EDP from Sephora with my purchase! And it's in the new style of bottle ... so cute!

[C Rose]

Fingers crossed... took a risk and bought Jil Sander III from a contentious evilBay seller...
Not the smartest thing in the world to do... but I've been unable to find it anywhere else!
Here's hoping I get it safe and sound.

Nice photo petruccijc! Is that bottle EIGHT FEET tall??! :-)

[Twolf]

LOL at 8 ft.tall, it sure looks like it, doesn't it?

A 1.7 oz bottle of Miss Arpels arrived today . The shipping was exhorbitant, but I only paid $6, so it all worked out.
Also a mini of vintage Graffiti by Capucci...

[Weimar27]

Cute cute cute !!!!

basicly I love the way jade jagger designed it i think it's more cleaner and staying true to the original design
simpler and cleaner and less balky

I recently bought Miss Arpels too. Lovely scent. I didn't do as well on the price, though. Enjoy!
