The splitmeet (episode 23) is open for business. PLEASE read the instructions! For people who would like to chat in addition to, or instead of, splitting, there will be a poll along shortly.
Don't know what a bottle split is, or you know but you've never tried it? See here.
Please note that the intention of the splitmeet is to split newly purchased bottles of perfume, not to sell decants of fragrances already in your collection! Anyone can join a split, but only people with current, active reader accounts may host splits. Update: in other words, you cannot host a split if you have never commented here before the day the splitmeet opens.
The rules: if you want to host a split
1. Anyone who wants to play can list up to 6 bottles they'd like to host a split for. New: if you really want to do more than 6 bottles, you may post up to 2 more (bringing your total to 8) starting on Tuesday the 29th.
2. List each perfume in a separate comment. Things to include in your comment: your country of residence, where you're willing to send, the size and price of the decants (include any shipping cost, please!), what container you'll use for the decant (glass, plastic, spray, etc), how many decants you are offering, and what sort of payment you're willing to accept. If you require a certain number of participants in order for the split to go forward, please make that clear, and don't accept payment until you're sure the split will go through! Payment arrangements are up to the participants, but I strongly suggest that you use Paypal or something similar.
3. You will have to post your email address in your comment, or have some other way for readers to contact you — one option is to list your email address at gravatar.com, and then link to your gravatar page in your user profile here. Another option would be to link to a contact page at your own blog, or anywhere on the web where people can find a way to reach you.
4. You are more than welcome to provide information about the fragrance you're splitting, including links to reviews or the store where you plan to buy the fragrance.
5. Once the split is closed, the person hosting it should reply to the original comment to indicate that there are no more decants on offer.
6. And obviously, if you're hosting a split, you should package your decants properly and mail them promptly. You might want to read through items 6-10 on our swapping post.
The rules: if you want to join a split
7. Participants may call dibs on a decant from a split by replying to the original comment, then sending an email to the person offering the split.
8. Please do not comment for any reason other than to call dibs on a split. If you have questions about the fragrance or the arrangements, send an email to the host.
9. Please send your payment promptly, or by whatever date agreed upon with the host.
And some general rules
10. We will NOT be responsible (and we won't get involved) if your split doesn't work out in some way, nor will you be allowed to post complaints here, ever.
11. I will leave the comments open until next Sunday, then I'll close the splitmeet.

********** Speculative Split **********
hajusuuri’s Split No. 4 – Santa Maria Novella Quercia EDP
CONUS only.
Did you know that beautyhabit continues to have occasional Master Classes by brand? I just participated in one earlier this week on Santa Maria Novella perfumes! We always get a discount for purchasing the branded products and this time around, it is 20% off.
From beautyhabit: Quercia pays homage to the imposing tree of the Medicean Villa di Castello, a symbol of strength and longevity, which has defied time and the seasons for over five hundred years. This fragrance combines deep and rich woody notes that evoke the majesty of oak, creating an intense and long-lasting olfactory experience.
On me, it is quite masculine although this time around, I really really like it. I will purchase this if I have at least two interested parties for 5 mL each (or 1 for 10 mL). With the 20% discount plus tax, the full 50 mL bottle is $153 which comes out to $3.06 per mL. Shipping with new materials and postage is $6.00. I will split up to 25 mL.
5 mL $21.30
10 mL $36.60
Because this is speculative, please email me first and then I will update this post with a comment if this split will proceed. Click on my name to get my contact info. Please include perfume name, mL amount and your NST username in the subject line of the email.
Thanks for your interest!
This split is closed. If you are interested later, please email me directly. Thanks!

Vero Profumo Rozy Voile d’Extrait Split
US only
Purchased from Luckyscent at the end of February and saved for splitting except for testing out the sprayer. $225 + $23.29 taxes = $248.29 for the 50ml bottle. $4.96 per ml x 5ml decant = $24.80. $24.80 + $5 for shipping using secondhand materials (I save most of the bubble wrap and mailers I get) = $29.80.
5ml = $29.80
I will split up to 20ml and use 10ml glass decant bottles, so they’ll be half full. These are my last 4 decant bottles that I’ve had for a long time so no extra charge for the bottle since I have no clue what I paid for them.
Call dibs here then email me at my NST username at gmail. I shouldn’t take more than two weeks to decant and mail. Payment will be friends and family through PayPal.
Hi all,
I’m thinking of purchasing a 100 ml bottle of Burberry Goddess EDP (the original, not the Intense version). I really love it but I don’t see it mentioned here on NST, so maybe I’m the only one among this group.
I would like to split at least 20 mls in order to buy the 100 ml bottle, but I can offer up to 50 mls. I have 10 ml and 5 ml spray glass decant bottles.
$18.50 for 10 mls including shipping, packaging, etc.
$13.50 for 5 mls including shipping, packaging, etc.
CONUS only. Amazon gift card or Venmo as payment.
If interested, please contact me via my screenname above and please include your NST screenname in the subject line plus “Burberry Goddess split.”
