Trish McEvoy 100 ~ fragrance review with an aside on beauty

Posted by Angela on 13 November 2017 30 Comments

Weekends, I work at a shop that brings in a diverse clientele, from students and artists to society matrons and tourists.

Bunch o’ limited edition collector bottles 2014, part 29

Posted by Robin on 14 November 2014 4 Comments

More limited edition collector fragrance bottles, with the usual disclaimers: in most of these cases, the juice is unchanged, just the bottle is “special” (or not, as the case may be), and some of these may not be available in the US. Today’s post includes collector items from Viktor & Rolf, Trish McEvoy, Roja Dove and Kate Spade.

Viktor & Rolf 2014 holiday edition of Flowerbomb

From Viktor & Rolf, another holiday edition of Flowerbomb, this one “presented in a multi-faceted glittering bottle, creating an exquisite collectable gift for any fragrance lover. The bottle is encrusted with a delicate layer of gold dusting.” £73 for 50 ml Eau De Parfum at Harvey Nichols in the UK. (You can see the other holiday 2014 Flowerbomb bottles here and here)…
