Okay, I like the name Minaudiere and I like the bottle. I love minaudieres and I think this is a cute theme. BUT, Minaudiere Oud? That doesn’t even make sense and is clearly just a marketing ploy to join the oud bandwagon. I know it’s all marketing anyway, but it’s nice when it feels cohesive and attractive. Not appealing to me when it’s like this.
Agree — sort of ruins the name altogether.
I am willing to sample these two fragrances. I so miss Judith Leiber’s signature scent “Leiber” that was discontinued. It was one of my favorite scents. Keeping my fingers crossed that I can like one of these.
Oh, and I definitely like the bottle – looks like a cute minaudiere!
It does have a clutch look to it. The brand does not seem to have taken off in the fragrance world, so try not to fall in love with another!
You’re so right. For me, that applies to so many scents.
You know, I think I came across Leiber a while back at a TJ Maxx or Marshalls.. or maybe it was Ross, I’m not sure. It was a while back, like at least a year or so, but if you ever go to any of those 3 stores, it can’t hurt to keep an eye out for it. You never know what you’ll find.
Great tip! Will do!Thanks!
