    Uh oh! Did I see Ginger in the Esteban Tonka??

    And who is this Esteban? He isn't the guitar player who lives here locally (Scottsdale, AZ) but plays all over the world, is he? If so, next time I see him, I just might have to ask if he has a sample handy that I can try. 🙂 LOL.

    Has anyone in Brussels tried the Tonka, yet? Please report back, when you do. I might need a Sample. 🙂

    LOL! They started with home fragrance, and have been expanding into personal fragrance lately. Four Seasons Products in the US has the line & I hope they will get these 3 eventually…and actually, others might have it too, I just don't know the line that well. Love the packaging!

    Hmmmmm, Cedre sounds rather nice too.

    Oh no, my lemming list is as long as the new football Stadium they're building here!

    I smelled all three while in Paris and was moved to try Cèdre. All three are nice, but nothing special. Pivoine felt the most generic. Cèdre's dry-down ended up lacking depth and complexity although the start seemed promising.

    I know the feeling, although mine is shorter than usual this spring.

    Thanks! Love those bottles, too bad if they all turn out to be dull.

    I find that description the most appealing too…have been trying to think of who else in the US carries Esteban but nothing comes to mind.

    Teck Tonka is great. I found the whole collection at http://www.giftsthatmakescents.com and they have the lowest prices. It’s the only site I found in usa. They even send me free samples. I always get the oil and use it as a perfume. I was ahead of esteban. Ha ha ….Did anyone try the new scent Aube Irisee yet? Please let me know

    Thanks for that link. They have the scented oil and even have the incense and vacuum powder. I don't know how they got the whole line so fast and still offer such good prices.

    Has anyone ordered from them? I'm thinking of trying the Esteban sampler but don't want to be the first.
