Hooray! I adore L’Escale a Portofino!
Me, too! I just discovered it the other day. (Because that’s all I need, one more perfume bottle in a sea of many!)
It’s one of the few winners this year that I like.
We don’t see much of that Miroir series in the US, do we? Or am I just not looking in the right place?
So far as I know it is only at Saks, and since I mostly hate Saks I still haven’t smelled them.
I haven’t set foot in Saks in many a moon but I guess eventually I’ll have to since everything seems to wind up there.
I’ve managed to avoid it now for a couple years.
Saks is the closest department store so I’m in there frequently. The Miroir collection was OK but nothing earth shaking, in my humble opinion and not worth the asking price. I wonder if they may end up in Marshalls/TJ Maxx alongside Eau de Star.
Yeah, that’s about what I’ve heard. Well, if they end up in TJ Maxx I’ll get to smell them!
