Where can I buy L'INSTANT DE GUERLAIN POUR HOMME EXTREME (edp) ?

[buzzley]

Hi all:

Pulling this up to say that Beauty Encounter has L'Instant Extreme right now. Anyone interested might want to check it out because it tends to sell out quickly.

Thanks.

For those periodically checking strawberrynet for this, I would recommend popping onto their site very frequently. I have been checking several times a day for the last two weeks, and they finally had some in stock yesterday morning. However, it must have sold out in a few hours. I managed to order what must have been one of the last bottles, because by the time I logged into BN to bump this thread and provide a link they were all gone.

Also, from what I understand the Guerlain boutiques in the US are not stocking this. I phoned Claire at the Las Vegas boutique a few weeks ago inquiring about this, and I believe he said it is not being sold in the US market. At the very least, he had not seen it at the Vegas location. Good luck to those trying to track this one down! It's an elusive one, it seems.

Has anyone found this in retailers?

I've been checking multiple times a day and still missed it!!

it's amazing how i live 2 minutes away from the guerlain boutique in toronto, canada but there is no dior boutique in all of canada.
had to order my DHI from strawberrynet few days ago. waiting for it now.

i really wanted guerlain l'instant extreme initially but since i'm only 21 and have immediate access to l'instant extreme, chose to go DHI instead.

Hopefully they just got a small shipment in, and in the future will have larger lots to sell from. And I really, really hope people aren't simply buying up multiple bottles to sell on ebay. But it seemed like a "blink and you miss it" deal yesterday as I went to bed rather late and checked right before going to bed, and checked again first thing in the morning. Within minutes of ordering my bottle they sold out. Amazing.

Yea checking at least 2+ times a day is the best way to go. When it's in stock, it doesn't last more than a day from what I've seen.

I hear that the new Indiana Jones film is going to be called The Quest For The Last Bottle Of L'Instant Extreme Pour Homme.

It is going to be action packed with Indy (our hero) trying to find a bottle of this juice. Apparently he is been chased by villains and women are trying to seduce him for a bottle of this juice. His search takes him across the world facing many dangers just for a bottle.

How is it going to turn out, watch now at a Cinema near you.lol

I heard that it ends with Indy finally getting the bottle, only to find out it has been reformulated, thereby causing his face to melt a la the Nazi in Raiders of the Lost Ark.

Out of curiosity, there's no page on strawberrynet that you can just pull up or reload to see if it's in stock, right? It seems I have to search for it each time, it doesn't look like they show out-of-stock search results.

Also, if someone finds it at Strawberrynet, can they post here after they've made their own orders? In case my daily check misses it, it would be nice to have a thread that tracks where it's available. I'll post here if/when I find it on Strawberrynet.

[Tappio]

No dedicated page to it, but you can bookmark the Guerlain page with all the men's fragrances on it and it will show up on there when it comes in stock.

I don't see Guerlain Instant Extreme on Strawberrynet either.

But if you really want it just call the boutique in Toronto, I asked what can they do, and they said they can ship it to you no sales tax or shipping costs. runs around 74 to 80 dollars depending on size. Do it and update us.

[hobbes22]

Dudester, thanks for the solid tip. For now, I'll wait to see if I can get it for ~$60 at Strawberrynet, but in a month or two I'll try the boutique route (which is what I had to do to get backups of Dior Homme Intense). Can't believe they don't charge shipping or tax in Toronto.

Also, Jack Hunter brings up a good point with Rochas Man. If you love gourmands, Rochas and DHI/LIdGE make a great combo. Wear Rochas Man during the day for casual wear, then spruce up with DHI/LIdGE for the evening.

For those that have DHI and LIdGE, how do you decide which to wear? Are they appropriate for similar occasions and seasons?

[crvn]

I've tried L'instant extreme but it just seems too mature for me. Maybe once I hit 30+, but too mature for me to wear now at least imo

I don't know if it's the iris or whatever, but DHI is just a little bit more youthful when compared to L'instant extreme

[hobbes22]

I think DHI has a modernity to it that lends itself to youthfulness. Maybe it's from the iris, not really sure. It's one of the things I enjoy about DHI though, it feels refined and modern at the same time (not always easy to achieve).

EDIT: Nevermind.

Does anyone know where one in the US can buy LIDGE now? Strawberrynet doesnt seem to be carrying it anymore, and escentual won't ship it outside of europe. I haven't even seen it on ebay lately.

Strawberrynet had at least 2 bottles the other day, because they are now on their way to me. I was thrilled because i hadn't gone there looking for it, so whatever i went there to buy was abandoned, because they had some LIDGE. i just checked again, and it's gone. I was gonna get some backups.
