Those of you who are anxiously awaiting the release of Terre d'Hermès might be interested in taking a look at the fragrance's new teaser website (site no longer active, sorry!). I spent 5 minutes or so last week trying to figure out what the website was about, but lost patience, and only found out that it was for Terre d'Hermès after reading about it on a fragrance forum.
I sent myself an email via the invitation on the Terre d'Hermes site, thinking 'maybe they'll offer me a sample!'. LOL, at once I got an email, inviting me to…click to go to the website. Ah well, they have my email address now; perhaps there will be offers at some future date! Relaxing music, I was quite mesmerised.
Well, you did better than I did…I entered my email & got nothing! A free sample would be most welcome
YUCK!! My auntie has Kenzo's first perfume “Flower” and it smells like baby oil. I'm not kidding. It smells EXACTLY like Baby Oil
I would have called it baby powder, but I do know exactly what you mean. I don't dislike it entirely, but it is a bit too sweet for me personally. I very much like the Flower Oriental though.
