The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 6 November 2017 21 Comments

A cheap thrill from Tauer: a new 5 ml mini of L’Air du Désert Marocain, for CHF 15 (about $15 US) and free shipping. "5ml in a wonderful pentagonal glass vial with screw cap, black, dab vials. The vial ships in a tin box for extra protection. You will love it! Powerful, sensual and pure. Laying on the bed, watching the moon raising over the sandy hills of the Saharan desert, he dreamt the fragrance of a Moroccan night." At Tauer Perfumes.

      If it helps, keep in mind that it’s a dabber and not a spray. (That’s the only reason I haven’t already placed an order. Who wants to dab LADDM? And if you’re just going to decant it into a spray vial, why not just split a larger bottle and save on price per mL?) That said, there is very little keeping me from giving in anyway.

        Hi Koyel! I want to dab LADDM, it works much better for me this way, if I spray, LADDM saffocates me…
        Just purchased a bottle!!!!!!!!!!!!
        Thank you, Robin!

          Oh, interesting! I prefer it (and most things!) sprayed, but I guess other people might not :) Perhaps I’m the unusual one!

    Oh no Robin! That lemming was terrible! I could not resist the temptation and I just placed an order. The best lemming you have posted so far :)

    Curses. This seemed too charming an opportunity to pass up and while I was there I just had to order the black soaps that were daily lemmings a couple of weeks ago. Way to start the day with an unplanned debit!

      I am still trying to resist the black soaps. If they’re fantastic, don’t tell me.

    Damn, I really don’t want to break my self-imposed three-month non-purchase restriction!

    This is so funny! about 10:30 last night I was reading about what else perfume and I ended up looking at Tauer and saw this and ordered it!
    I thought how sweet is this?
    And here it is – the lemming!!

    I need to check the packaging to see how it fits my hand. For science, I will place an order.
