Agreed. I gave my teenaged daughter my sample.

I keep reaching for this sample and grumbling that to get a bottle, the shipping from Spain is the same as the cost of the perfume ... PLUS tarrif fees.

This is one of my favorite fall scents. I've been rationing my sample, but I should probably just break down and get a decant.

It's become an instant favorite. I've already sought out something larger than the sample I have. I was talking about it in a group I'm in, and it seemed like half the people there counted it a favorite. It really is nice.

I soooooooo don't think so. I need a bottle of it but not THAT bottle of it. It looks so cheap. Well, at $20, I guess it is cheap. And it appears they've phased out that bottle.

I'm glad it works on you though! :-) It's so popular that I thought I'd give it a try. I think I'm going to save it to try in warm weather just to see if maybe it's one of those weather-dependent ones on my skin. I really want it to work.

I tried this one a few days ago, and loved the opening. But then the middle smelled like a plastic bread bag on me. I was so disappointed. I'm not usually a gourmand fan, but I liked the fair atmosphere in the opening. Oh well.

That sounds like a complete no-go for you then. Ha. If your curiosity gets the best of you, decantalize has cheap samples of it. I ended up liking it more than I thought I would. So, you never know!

I keep meaning to try this one. I'm finding I like more Diors than I originally thought.

I was going to pass on it, but several people mentioned enjoying it in summer, especially at the pool or beach. So, I'll keep my sample to give it another try then.

Your nose is more sophisticated now. 😉 Although, I remember being disappointed with them after the first time I visited Europe and experienced Yves Rocher instead.

Yeah. I don't even bother going in anymore because I realize I'm just going to sniff 50 things and not really like any of them.
