Hump Day, and not a moment too soon. 75 days left in 2018, which is a few too many for my taste, and don't forget the splitmeet is coming up on Saturday. What fragrance are you wearing?
I'm planning a day in Fendi Theorema, because Nancyleandros mentioned it yesterday.
Reminder: on 10/19, for Family History Month, wear a fragrance that someone in your family wore, or that reminds you of someone in your family, or that reflects your family history in some way.
And for those of you who like to plan ahead, see Scent of the day ~ Friday community projects 2018, where I'll try to always have the next five or six weeks mapped out in advance.

I’m wearing SCHERRER 2
I love the original Scherrer, but 2 just doesn’t work on my skin. So glad it gets love from others
I love Scherrer 2, it’s great for cooler weather.
☕☕☕☕☕☕????????????????????????☕☕☕☕☕☕
Feelin’ booshee today, so wearing black silk underwear infused with Tobacco Vanille Tom Ford via a saturated cotton ball in me unnerwear drawer.
Goes well with me de rigueur flannel shirt and Levis.
Surprise! !!!????????????????????????
????????????✌
The world could use more surprises like that Bear !!
You will make someone smile today
Sounds great Bear, enjoy your day!
Too funny
Nice!
Well I just can’t stop myself from asking… boxers or briefs? ????????❤
????
LOLOLOL Boxers, but only in silk.
Other fabrics are too footloose and fancy free !!????????????LOLOLOL ????????????
Regular underwear are briefs, boxer/briefs the legs ride up.
????????????✌
Too sexy for your shirt today Bear?
Jalapeno, I so wish I would have thought of that. Perfect!????????????
Sounds fantastic! Have a great day Bear!
Diorissimo from a small decant. Because I needed cheering up. Off to work out before heading to work.
Hope it is doing its magic!
You smell lovely
I hope your day gets better.
Diorissimo and endorphins to the rescue! I hope you feel better soon. ????
Thanks and yes, going better. The exercise helped, too, but I like to think Diorissimo was the key.
Wearing Petits Papiers in honour of Legalization Day here in Canada
Lucky you, on both counts, hannahmom! ????????????????????????✌
HA, perfect!!
So many things to love about Canada!
Still hoping one day to get my selfie with Mr Trudeau <3
Hilarious! i had forgotten about it, but I will join you in Petits Papiers. That’s as close as I will ever get to a reefer.
Ha!!!!! Love it!!!
Wearing a bit of Cuir de Russie extrait from a sample gifted to me by a generous NSTer. I’m iffy about the EDP, but the extrait is quite nice-maybe a tad too green for me (reminds me of a denser, more feminine version of Guerlain Derby).
Beautiful sunny but cold morning and I dressed more warmly than I did yesterday, so much less cranky this am, lol. Happy Humpday, all!
Hi twin! I’m swanning around in the EDT. And now I feel like I have to try Derby!
Hey twin!
less cranky is good. You don’t want to give other New Yorkers a run for their money
????
Ha! I can’t compete…
I’ve heard that there is the possibility of frost in my area overnight tonight. If so, that means tomorrow morning is going to be downright nippy!
It’s straight-up Tam Dao for me today. Gorgeous morning here. Happy Friday-Eve Eve, everyone.
Nice! (On all counts!)
Tam Dao is so nice. Lol at Friday-eve eve, I like that!
Tam Dao always feels right, a lovely go to perfume for me- I feel calm and happy just reading about it. You smell good!
You smell just wonderful
This is why saying “It’s Friday” everyday makes Friday get here faster.
There really are some days where none of my perfume seems like it fits the bill. I guess I’ll have to buy something new.
I finally decided on Iris Ukiyoe, which matches the cool wet weather we’re having today.
Iris Ukiyoe is a perfect match for your weather. Good job !
Maybe your new Habit Rouge will haha. I will send the tracking number tomorrow morning!
Inspired by others this week I am in Bandit.
Waiting for a furniture repair person to come. My little monkey managed (and very proudly so) to pull the buttons off our recliner chair.
Having a quiet morning so far, looking at the front cover of our WSJ and shaking my head. Since there is a comment policy that is all I will say about that.
I went for a nice stroll this morning in central park after dropping the little ones off. Such a beautiful crisp day! I love this fall weather…
Oh gosh, sorry about the buttons…I must confess that made me giggle a bit. I remember those days.
Yep!!
Reminds me of the time when my daughter and her friend played “spa” and used my fancy facial toner for a foot soak…
Nooooooo! That’s funny and so sad.
BANDIT!!
It is another coolish, dreary, gray day here in East Texas. I needed something to cheer me up and chose the spicy florals of Rouge Hermes.
Oh, you smell great. I have a mini of that one.
I found a bottle of Rouge in a discount store, in one of the original bottles. I passed over it for something else but I’m very curious to go back and sniff it.
Hope that you are safe and dry! Texas’ weather made the news last night.
Yes, this weather is very dreary and dull, isn’t it? I’ve got a set of orange Halloween lights and am about to hang them out on my porch to provide a bit of color and fun.
Good morning, friends, on Day 3 of Project: Jet Lag! Shockingly, waking up at 5:30 was easier than yesterday’s 6:15 wake-up time. Also, it was surprisingly easy to fall asleep at 10pm. Huh. I expect I just didn’t sleep well the night before.
Forgot perfume in my eagerness to get out the door this morning, so I’m wearing Mohur from a dedicated work travel spray
Mohur could work for the CP, because of its Indian associations (and accordingly, my family’s Indian heritage).
Wish me luck on getting out of work early! I have a bad habit of staying late no matter how early I get in >.<
Good luck! You should set an alarm or reminder on your phone and make yourself go home!
Thank you! That’s a great idea. I think I’ll do that
Maybe waking up @ 5:30am was closer to your circadian rhythm than 6:15am was? Yeah, I know, scary thought.
That is terrifying!! I’m not convinced anything before 8 is REALLY part of my circadian rhythm
Hope you made it out of work early!
I am wearing Guerlain L’Heure Bleue and drinking a cup of Darjeeling tea.
You smell great!
I am drinking a cup of Lapsang Souchong
Thank you
Comparing 31 RC and Ambre Nue today.
31 RC really is a stunner…easy to get side tracked by all the vanillas ????
are the two similar?
I am also looking for something similar to 31RC that won’t break the bank
I adore Rue Cambon.
Thank you all for your kind words yesterday. Perfume people really are the best.☺️I had a lovely visit with my granny and then hit the road for home. Stopped halfway home to spend the afternoon and evening with my college girl. We hung out in her dorm room last night in our sweats and watched a movie. Took me back, oh about 30 years. Good times. Today I will make the rest of the way home. Beautiful sunny fall day today!????????
Eau premiere day 2.
You smell fab!
Safe travels today! Fall is perfect driving weather, too.
Two great visits in a row! That’s awesome ????
Travel safe! ????
That’s two awesome visits! You smell good, too.
In faithful autumn favorite, Cuir de Lancôme. I love this stuff.
Oh, you smell lovely!
Mmmmmmm
Such a fantastic scent
Lovely!
Hey scent twin, we smell wonderfully autumnal!
Cuir de Lancome is a beautiful leather.
I didn’t have time to find my Jungle L’Elephant yesterday, so I might try again today. The weather seems just cool enough to handle the spice.
Oh, I love the l’elephant! You smell great????
Comments about Jungle L’Elephant inspired me to get a bottle. Excited to try it, hopefully will be here tomorrow.
I hope that you like your new bottle!
I hope you LOVE IT! All this talk about Jungle l’Elephant is making me want to break my weeks-old no-buy. Temptations abound.
Anyway, the bottle itself is also really cute
I may have mentioned this a long time ago — the elephant and I did not get along. I’m pretty sure I got a decant from STC and it was sour and spicy in a very bad way. My nose could be broken.
I love it and love the bottle too!
I’m in a little bit of Youth Dew this morning. Breakfast was a homemade egg McMuffin and vanilla bean black tea, but the brand name escapes me. There’s a puppygirl on my lap and we’re keeping each other warm, so I have little motivation to go to the kitchen to check the box! ????
Oops…my mother wore Youth Dew; I remember the ribbed bottle with the gold string bow sitting on the bathroom counter. Like most things, she used it up and didn’t replace it, which makes me a bit sad. But at least we know she enjoyed it!
Home made egg McMuffin and vanilla tea? I want what you’re having!
I love Youth Dew – have you tried the bath oil? I actually get more resins/amber/spicy florals. It’s gorgeous stuff.
I have a mini, picked up recently from an antique shop, but the label is too worn to really tell. I’ll have to try it!
In case you really want to make your own egg McMuffins….

My mother in law wears Youth Dew, clinique aromatics & Estee by EL (older bottle so I think its an older version)
Ahh, your MIL has great taste!
Youth Dew is a grand powerhouse of a scent!
Indeed it is. My mom used to wear it for special occasions, because my dad liked it, but she’d put so much on that it was distinctly overpowering. For that reason, I really dislike it now.
SOTD for me is No. 5 Eau Première.
So we’ve gone from summer straight into early winter here in NY.
The heat went on in our apt. this morning for the first time this season and I’m scrambling for sweaters, hats and warm clothing. The sweater coat I wore today does not cut it and yet I can’t bear to bring out the wool coat.
One thing I am looking forward to is making soup! I’m also learning how to bake with new types of flour such as spelt and amaranth, as well as less processed sweeteners like coconut sugar. Excited to experience these new flavors and textures.
Hi floagal, I’m also trying out different flours, and baking with sugar alternatives, deliciouslyella has a yummy gingerbread recipe with an amazing caramel sauce made with coconut sugar.
I’ve started using xylitol to replace sugar in most recipes.
There’s been jokes around about a similar big drop and change of seasons here in Texas. I saw one that said, “The temperature dropped from 90 to 55, like it had just seen a state trooper!”
I love fall cooking- soups, stews, baking…you smell great today.
Hi all,
SOTD is a mixture of Kiehl’s Musk and L’ Artisan Vanilia (original formula).
Busy day of HR meetings and rewriting Position descriptions. We are taking my employee for her farewell lunch to celebrate her promotion, it should be enjoyable!
Everyone have a good day!
Oh, bet that is a good combo. Enjoy the lunch!
Hope you enjoyed your lunch! I bet you smelled good!
In Ann Gerard’s Perles de Mousse this morning because I got the little travel spray in the mail yesterday – a make me feel better purchase after a very contentious work meeting last week. Angela here on NST and Bois de Jasmin both classified it as more of spring scent and I agree – but it’s nice nonetheless, though I like Ciel d’Opale better.
Happy Hump Day!
It’s a lovely scent.
I’m in a perfume that my mom currently wears, though she doesn’t wear perfume very often. It’s vintage Amouage Ciel, a decant I made from her bottle. The bottle looks like this: https://goo.gl/images/tRWuwK
My aunt owns a salon and does color for some wealthy women. One of her clients gave her this bottle years ago, and when my mom visited her in Seattle from Ohio, my aunt gave the bottle to my mom. Neither of them knew anything about it, but I freaked out a bit when she brought it home and showed me. She keeps wanting me to have it, but I tell her to keep it since I know she loves the perfume. She tends towards florals, and this vintage Ciel is gorgeous. I find it creamier than the current version.
OMG, that is the most beautiful bottle I have ever seen. Love!
I remember those bottles! Amouage used to do fancier packaging than they do now.
That bottle is amazing! I literally gasped out loud when I saw it.
Me too
WOW! I had no idea Amouage used to have such spectacular bottles! It’s such a shame they transitioned to the much more garish bottles they use now
Neither did I–it’s so pretty!
That bottle is stunning!
Wow, lots of comment this morning already!
Another beautiful photo today- loving these vintage black and white shots????????
No scent of the day yet…must shower stat! I went out on a pub crawl last night with some fellow travelers and we had a blast! Out till 3am, which I haven’t done since the last ice age. The thing I forgot was the disgusting after effects of ciagarette smoke in hair and clothes. Yech!
So: shower, then 7 Virtues Vetiver of Haiti courtesy of a super generous NSTer. You know who you are and I thank you for your kindness????
Woken at the crack of dawn by a frosty phone call from the rental office because I was parked in an unapproved parking spot. Wah-wah! This is what happens when you don’t provide tenants adequate parking.
Second call was an offer for my next work gig, which will start 11/5. It’s a great relief to have another contract lined up and ready. Only 5 more shifts here in Reno and I was starting to get a bit nervous.
Happy Humpday to all ✌????
Where will the new gig take you?
Like the song title says “Going to California”…San Jose specifically ????
Hey, if it can be a song reference, it’s gonna be great! Glad you will be getting out of sketch city!
No doubt! ????
You can check out any time you like
But you can NEVER leave ????????
Bear, you are such a classy classic. The pop culture references in your posts are always spot on. You’re like the Quentin Tarantino of NST-minus the blood and guts????
Nice one, Bear!
Glad to hear you have a new offer, and you smell wonderful.
Thank You????
Good for you, congrats!
Thank you????
Hurray for the new contract! ???? “On the road again, I just can’t wait to get on the road again!” ????
You know it, sister sledge! I will miss a lot of the people I am currently working with, but as SO happy to be leaving this area.
Yay! Congrats on your next journey! And the pub crawl sounds fun (except cigarette smoke in hair)!
Camellia chinois by Maitre Parfumeur er Gantier….Nice green Tea scent with some herbe in the background. Was nice in the sunny and warm autumm sun.
I do not think I’ve smelled that one, but sounds great!
I’m wearing Masque Milano Times Square that smells sweet, sticky and slightly bad. Sinful bubblegum? Strawberry shampoo and sex? I would never have thought I would love it, but now I’m addicted.
Strawberry shampoo and sex?! I’m intrigued haha.
Took the words right out of my mouth. Gah…. now I have to find my Meatloaf CD..????
Ditto!
Usually its strawberries..champagne..then sex..
Wearing Philosykos today, not because anyone in my family wore it, but because it reminds me of the huge fig trees in my Granny and Granddaddy had in their yard growing up. I used to help them pick the figs. Sweet memories!
Another 6:30 work morning. And yes, I actually had to smile at people and be pleasant by 7:00. I deserve an Oscar ha!
The Oscar goes to…Kelly C..for her dramatic role in “Smile, its 7am”
I’d like to thank the academy….
Nice family connection!
Any more early mornings for this week? Or is today the end of that?
No, thank goodness! Our biggest customer was in for a few days and meetings started at 7:30 (they’re military, thus early risers lol). But thank goodness I’ll get to sleep until 7:30 tomorrow as opposed to 5:30! ????????
Hmm, your memory of picking figs reminded me of how I used to go out into the orchards and help my grandmother and great-grandmother pick cherries for pies. I was good at climbing up the ladders where you could grab the ones that were out of reach from the ground, so they liked to take me along. Then we’d come home and pit all those cherries (sigh). I am not really sure of any cherry notes in fragrances, though–will have to search on that.
I never helped do anything with the figs after we picked them but goodness, I sure spent my fair share of time shelling peas and snapping/stringing green beans beans and shucking corn haha. I took it for granted back then but I wish I could go back and sit on my granny’s porch and do it all over again.
Yes, those were fun times, despite the work. I don’t want a green bean fragrance, though, ha ha!
Sotd is Gris Montaigne because Petunia mentioned it yesterday. I’m running very late for work and do not care. This perfume is exquisite, really, it’s to good for me.
Yay! You smell lovely. I almost wore it again today.
I got a compliment from a customer already!
Wow! Bask in the glow. They don’t come very often.
Hey congrats on the perfume compliment! If you are wearing it that well, it means that you and the perfume are perfectly suited for each other. ????
Yes, I will take it as a sign we were meant to be together. I wonder if the new version smells the same, since they changed the name?
Loved your “running late but do not care” statement lol
Yeah, tommorow is my day off, so I can slack a little today ????
I’m attending a work conference/training today so I kept it light in Vanilla Hinoki.
I like VH. It’s very low key, unassuming, and polite. Kind of like the best kind of house guest. ????????
I have it in the oil format. It is totally low key yet I can smell it all day.
Hope your conference was enjoyable or at least informative!
Testing Ambrette 9. Pretty sure I’m anosmic to something in this, because I can’t smell it AT ALL. First time this has ever happened to me and it’s pretty weird.
Money saved?!
True! I’m waiting for my husband to get home so I can ask him if he can smell it. So strange.
I can smell it, but it’s very light and musky and needs a heavy hand. You might be anosmic to the musk, though.
I’m anosmic to many musks, so I’m sure that’s true. FWIW my husband says it’s light but he can smell it.
I can barely smell that one either. I got a sample of it at Nordstrom recently, and plan to use the whole thing in one go. Maybe I’ll smell something that way.
The SA told me it was a ‘mother and baby’ fragrance when it first came out. I didn’t know whether or not to believe her.
Gawwwly it took me for-ev-ah this AM to choose a fragrance. Nothing felt right for today, and I had an inkling I would be really irritated by the wrong choice (some days are like that, eh?) Finally settled on Kelly Caleche. Turned out to be a good choice.
I almost always for for 22 EDT when I feel like that. It is good for curing what ails me
I have indecisive mornings like that sometimes :-/ I usually end up reaching for a nearly empty sample, just to polish it off. Meh. Glad you found the right choice eventually!
Santal Nabataea Mona di Orio from a decant. Definitely FB in my future.
That one sounds so good; could you do a mini-review for us?
Starts out a little acetone-y, but quickly develops to a woody creamy peppery little bit spicy and warm scent, maybe a touch of dirt, could be the tea I smell. Temps where I am have been cold, and I think with heat this would really bloom. I keep spraying just because it’s so lovely but i can smell this even the next day. Sprayed on skin and on sweater, definitely works better on skin. I don’t want to say it’s like Theorema, but there’s a small similarity.
Mmmm…. Thanks, Flopper!
Love the new avatar????????
I still have a bottle of her vanilla on my “never ending, most likely will never purchase” wish list. Not familiar with the one you’re wearing but it sounds beautiful from your description.
Thank you ???????? I bet the Vanilla is beautiful. Have not tried that one.
Very pretty orchid in your gravatar!
Erdenstern by April Aromatics today. I love this, but my nose started running 5 minutes after I applied it and kept running until I gave myself a big dose of Nasocort at work. I am afraid I have become allergic to this. Sooo bummed. Under the influence of nasal corticosteroids, it still smells good to me.
Sigh.
Ugh, hope you haven’t really become allergic… but then again, I hope you don’t have a cold, either! Hope whatever it is gets better.
Nooo! My allergies have been acting up with the turning seasons; fingers crossed it’s just that!
Oh, that’s a bummer, having a reaction like that to a cherished perfume.
Citta di Kyoto by Santa Maria Novella for today.
Oh, I love that one — you smell marvelous.
Thank you <3
It's like a candied violet to me but that goes so well with the autumn chill.
My paternal grandmother apparently enjoyed Avon’s perfumed talcs. Ones that I know she had include Occur!, Here’s My Heart, Rose Geranium, Honeysuckle, and Lily of the Valley.
The only Avon that I have now is the Imari perfumed body cream, so that’s what I’m wearing today. Bought it on a whim a few years ago and ended up loving it. I read somewhere that Avon reformulated and re-packaged older lines like Imari two or three years ago, and now I’m afraid to order it again.
I am going to have to ask my mother — I know my grandmother used several scented powders but I don’t know what they were. The scent I associate with her most strongly is Jean Nate.
When I was very young I bought my grandmother a big bottle of a Jean Naté product, not sure which one. It sat on a shelf above the bathtub forEVER, and I am positive it was never opened. Can’t remember why I might have chosen that as a gift, and have no idea at all what it smelled like. Saw it on that same shelf for years, maybe decades, and in an odd way that alone is a nice memory. Wonder who lives there now and what sits in that same spot.
It is kind of a nice memory — and she displayed it, anyway!
How do you use scented powders? I have a couple, and I meant to use them in the summer to dry off excess moisture, but ended up not bothering, because I worried it would get on my clothes. How do your grandmothers use scented powders?
I recall my grandmother using them while dry, before dressing. Back in the day, people didn’t shower every day, they would do more of a sponge bath. I’m talking way back… My paternal grandmother would be 114 now.
Finishing up testing my 7 Virtues Peace Blend sampler. Today I have Orange Blossom on my left hand, versus their older Afghanistan Orange Blossom on my right hand. I’m thinking the AOB has gone off ’cause today it smells like orange blossom mothballs. I may have to thunk this bottle. Will try blasting out the sprayer, but perhaps these just don’t last.
The new OB is quite nice though, best of the Peace Blend lot, IMO. Pretty and cheerful.
Oh no, belated sorry for your older bottle!
In Geisha Noire today – I always enjoy this one when I remember to wear it
You smell great! I wore that Sat night and a friend wanted me to write down the name of it for her. Nice to have an admirer sometimes ????
I love perfume compliments and don’t get enough
Can you tell me more about this one?
To me it’s a beautiful and very wearable combo of vanilla and incense – its the only thing I have sampled from Aroma M and I love it
Agreed. Smoky, spicy vanilla amber goodness. My fiancé doesn’t comment on a lot of my scents- since there are so many I try- unless he really loves it and he never fails to comment when I’m wearing this one. Sexy and perfect
For sweater weather! I have a decant but want a FB.
Oh gosh one of my favs! You smell excellent!
We’re having such an unusually beautiful warm and sunny autumn here, Cuir de Lancôme felt perfect today.
Your weather sounds wonderful! ????????????
We must be neighbours as our fall is the same. Also twins as I’m in CdL too!
Today two of my cats were taking turns between sleeping in the sunny bay window, and hanging out on the “kitty hot pad”. They are definitely not fans of the sudden shift to serious fall weather. ???????????? I however am willing to overlook the cooler temps if it means that there are more sunbeams in the forecast. Time to break out the wool socks! ????
SOTD = Jardins d’Armide EdP from Oriza L. Legrand. This is a rather pretty powdery rose scent with some tonka and honey as secondary notes. The powder is cosmetic powder, not baby powder. ????
I wouldn’t mind sleeping in a sunny bay window myself. My kitties have just switched back to napping in their cat beds, instead of lying on the bare floors as they do in warm weather.
Your sotd sounds nice!
Thank you! I am noticing a bit of a Turkish delight vibe in the drydown of it. That might be because I’ve been wanting a little nibble of some lately.
I envy the cats their naps. I just saw one of them run for a heat vent now that the heater has kicked on.
I wouldn’t mind cool with sun either. Although would throw in no snow! Or…. no more than one inch at a time!
Love visualizing your kitties in the sun.
I´m very late to the party this time. I spent the day in Amouage Myths Woman, which I always feel is like a narcissus on steroids.
Still trying to figure out what to wear on Friday, perfume wasn’t big in our family. My mother would wear fragrance but as she is a terrible oversprayer so it’s something of a miracle that I love perfume.
Ha! I am an over sprayer sometimes too
Me too! Sometimes I am glad it takes me a while to get to work to let my scent die down before I get to the office lol.
Hi, I’m late too. Wearing Ciel de Gum today, which is really gorgeous in cooler weather. It’s got a kind of sharp edge in the warmer weather but right now seems simply delicious. I’m picking up mainly the vanilla and rose. It’s possibly the pink pepper note that is too harsh in the heat.
That sounds so nice..
SOTD = L’AP Safran Troublant
Woody Pudding™️ / Cuddlefluff™️ with 8 sprays ???? and my fingers may have been extra naughty today.
Commuting Woes No. 604:
My commute consists of 3 rail segments. Inbound to the office, I usually get a seat for the first 2 segments while outbound going home, I’m lucky to get a seat in one of the segments. This morning, it was standing room only for the 3rd segment as usual and I got a good standing spot by the door as I get off at the 2nd stop and the door is on the opposite side of the doors that open at the first stop. Anyway, a guy walked in at the first stop, clutching what may have been a full Venti-sized coffee. He took a spot immediately behind me so I can see his reflection. If a guy can do something daintily, I would describe him as sipping daintily with the cup held at about a 70 degree angle. Based on this, I concluded that: 1) the contents were very hot and 2) the cup was still quite full. Throughout the 2-3 minutes between the stops, I was concerned that he would bump into me and spill the hot coffee all over me if the train lurched or if he scalded himself and dropped or flung the cup out of pain and surprise. Thank goodness none of these happened but I do have a vivid imagination!
Cuddle fluff is indeed a trademark worthy descriptor! I have been using it a lot in real life
Wearing some Yardley Iris tonight with some added sprays to my shirt. I don’t think this perfume was around the house back in the day but I do recall several Yardley soaps and bath products.
My bottles of Alien with the limited edition coloring arrived yesterday. They are beautiful. They both are different colors, one is a bit lighter blue up top as I can see the colors through the window at the top of the box. The other is a darker blue, almost navy up top. I haven’t opened them up as I’m not sure if I will keep both or possibly return one and get the bottle of Chanel No 5 oil instead!
You got 2 of the Alien bottles?! Yay you! Your in Canada right? I am still waiting to see them here.
You’re*
Yes, I’m in Canada. I was a bit surprised that they were available. I didn’t hesitate too long to open up my wallet as they are limited edition. First time for bottle envy!
