Today I bought ... (for March 2007)
Question:
This monthly thread has highlighted my spending to me more than I thought. Guess we better keep it going. What did you buy today? Answer: Today I received Samsara edp; Rochas Femme edt; Cabochard. I've had Samsara before. The other two I bought unsniffed as they were not that expensive. I think I'm going to like Cabochard....but Femme I guess I'm going to have a harder time with...too early to say yet. Answer: Purchased Shiseido's Feminite du Bois, based on recommendations and reviews on this board. The local department store still had a few bottles available, but they are under the counter. Apparently, there is quite a following for this one -- when they do have it in (which isn't often), they generally go very fast. Answer: After using up the samples, I purchased full size bottles of: Youth Dew - (I did have this about 20 yrs. ago, and still love it!) Youth Dew Amber Nude Pure Poison All in EDP Now I just need a few more Guerlains for Guerlain Week! Answer: I will probably buy (not decided yet) Bryant Park today. Yes, it's working that well on me. for goodness' sake, someone talk me out of it! Answer: A backup bottle of Tracy, by Ellen Tracy. It smells like Omnia with a touch of creamy almond. Answer: Alright, I did not buy it, but I did receive a full 50ml bottle of the new Miracle Forever edp today. A friend from work bought it for herself but since she ended up getting migranes from it she gave it to me. I have to find a nice pretty floral for her now - I'd love to present her with something she'd like - something soft, floral and pretty . Answer: OK, today is the March 1st & I'm not going to buy ANY more stink juice until April 1st, I promise... Oh pleeeease, who am I trying to kid?! I give myself til 3/3 before I crumble. Answer: So far so good...not one penny on scents. After february splurges, perfume and jewelry, I need to take a break. I think I should do the sample thing before I buy more. I came close to a big ebay buy, but held back. All were vintage versions of things I have already. Perfume buying is pretty endless, isn't it? I mean once you've "caught the bug" and start collecting? Life was simpler when I just wore the same favorite daily. At least simpler from the fragrance perspective. There were other unsettling aspects. Answer: So far nothing, but I keep getting that obsessive urge to buy something new, so far, I've kept it under control, but I don't know how much longer I can hold out. I've been wanting to buy Flower Oriental by Kenzo, and try out a few others, but haven't as of yet. May go & get a cheaper one at Bath & Body, just to hold me over, but their scents don't really do it for me, as the more complex ones and (unfortunately) expensive ones I would rather have. Well see how long I can hold out... Copyright ? 2006 - 2007 www.thankhealth.com Privacy Policy
