I been enjoying reading the spoilers and looking at the pictures. I realize it isn't the box for me which I find to be disappointing because I want a french themed box! I still enjoy the excitement and pictures,

I am curious if the scarves feel different than the other scarves in sub boxes. I don't own a scarf at that pricepoint.
 It is way softer than any scarf I have ever seen or owned. I have owned some expensive ones too

 
My box still isn't here. :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> The new estimated arrival is Monday.

Which is a shame because I am totally in the mood for salted caramels RIGHT NOW! :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />)))
they're so good!  sorry to hear your box is delayed. all the more excitement for next week. hope you get something great!

 
I just read on another blog some of the brands that are supposed to be in the Provence bo, and I could not be more excited.  They include comptoire des contonniers (classy clothes), Marie jeanne (candles), l'occtaine, and cecile pic (really gorgeous jewelry).  THis box has consistently delighted me.  I paid $86 a box and will resubscribe for a full year once my 6 boxes are up..  Also waiting for some on the new items to go into the boutique so I can buy other things.

 
Still no box :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> - only label created on March 2- have emailed them twice and they promise me that it has shipped but because of bad weather there were delays. I really, really want my box.

 
I wish they'd offer another 20% deal on the annual sub.  This sub keeps looking better and better to me.  If I had realized it would only be $86 per box when they offered that deal, I wouldn't have been able to pass it up!

 
Got my box finally!

1. the blue and green scarf- Love it. I was hoping for it!

2. the black leather/gold earrings

3. necklace in brown/beige w/ gold links

4. Talika eye gel

5. Sothy's mascara

6. Unseven tote - serge gainesbourg - I actually like this!

7. Unseven buttons - Coco Chanel & Yves St Laurent - fun

8. Hediard caramels- the tin is fab

9. black tea w/ citron

10. foaming face wash (travel size)

The scarf is really special and I can see myself wearing it often.

Actually I will use everything in this box BUT the jewelry.

Has anyone tried the mascara or eye gel yet?

Any reviews or feed back?

This was my first box. I am happy with it.

Can not wait for Provence!

I soooooo wish this box was monthly!

YAY!  It is a good box.  Cute stuff!  I'm w/ you on the jewelry (well, the necklace esp). Enjoy the yummy candy!  I haven't tried any of the items yet (except the socks - which were great in our cold weather).

YAY!! I'm so glad your happy & ❤️ Your Box!!

 
I got home from vacation & was finally able to open my box last night. I love it!

I got:

The blue scarf (so soft & absolutely stunning)

The necklace in neutral (I was originally going to swap this, but once I tried it on I fell in love with it)

Gold earrings (not my style)

Hair BB cream (love this brand)

Sothys mascara (I needed a new one)

Talika eye gel (ok, but I'll swap. I'm on beauty overload)

Face cleanser (I always need cleanser)

Caramels (Already gone...ooops! My daughter ate a few, but I polished off the majority) I'm keeping the tin. Love it!

Tea with lemon (nice-went in the gift closet)

I'm really happy with the selection that I got. I would have preferred to get the Ripauste bracelet instead of the earrings, but I already traded for one & also the cute coin bracelet. It looks like a fun summer bracelet & seems like something I might pick up in a gift boutique if I were visiting France. I can't wait to get them! I still want the coin key chain & Serge Gainsburg tote (I'm a big fan) & the Chanel & St Laurent buttons are fun too. Hopefully I can swap for those as well. I really wanted the blue scarf & was so excited to see it, but the green scarf & sweaters are beautiful too.

I do wish the boxes weren't so beauty heavy & that there was more in the way of actual home items, not just food. I think I had 5 beauty items in my last box & 4 in this one. That's really my only complaint.

I'm glad the boxes were more similar in value & items this time. I know some liked the drastic variations, but I think it's hard to not have some envy when the items are so varied.

I have the yearly sub with discount code, so at way less than $100 per box, I'm very happy!

Does anyone have info on how we purchase from the shop with our annual sub special pricing?

I also am really hoping for more home items.

And I don't know if anyone mentioned it regarding the necklace but it does have a clasp if you look carefully.

The way it hooks leaves the pendant in front and then the long chains dangle down the center of your back.

If you're young and/or love backless tops and dresses, I'm not gonna lie... It's awfully gorgeous worn that way.

Or of course, pull the ends forward back over your shoulders.

 
Sweater ( hideous blue and fuchsia) scarf ( tie dye blue/green) leather bracelet..I think they were inspired by pub crawlers, or perhaps the Roma camps in Nice?

Keychain, caramels, tea, facewash... I'm sure I forgot something....mascara. 

The tin of caramels will be something nice to add to one of our guestrooms, the keychain will hold a spare set of keys and while I don't like rayon, the scarf will make a pretty furoshiki presentation for a casual gift.

I'm glad I cancelled, but I'll keep an eye on the sub. I'd like to see more home items, too!

 
I wish they'd offer another 20% deal on the annual sub. This sub keeps looking better and better to me. If I had realized it would only be $86 per box when they offered that deal, I wouldn't have been able to pass it up!

Ouinormandie is a valid coupon code. I just tried it on the annual and month to month and it takes 20% off

 
I can't find where to put the code in. Do I need to make a new account?
I just went to the page where you pick between the 3 options, add which one you want (one time, month to month, yearly) to your cart then say view cart. On the left hand side there's a box that says "enter promo code" and it immediately refreshes to show you the discount when you put in Ouinormandie

@@LindaF, thanks!  I just subbed...at least I think I did.  My phone died while I was placing my order, and it's showing as pending payment now.  I can't tell if that just means they're waiting for my charge to clear, or if my payment didn't complete before my phone died.  There's a "pay" button next to my pending order.  I guess I'll wait to see if anything shows up as pending on my card before I try to do anything else.

Derp...apparently, I made a typo when I was entering my card info, because it was declined.  Re-entered my info, and now I have a payment confirmation.  Yay! I'm officially in!

Just received a second box. I got all the same items as the first except:

-No BB cream.

-The socks this time. I love over the knee socks. I live in the Pacific NW, so I wear boots about 9 months out of the year.

-I also got the coin bracelet. Cute-I'm wearing it now. It's got a beachy look to it so I stacked it with my bracelets from Hawaii.

-I received a second necklace in grey & I love it even more than the one with brown beads.

I was hoping for the green scarf, but everything else was duplicate.

Blue scarf, earrings, mascara, eye gel, face wash & caramels (yeah, those will be gone soon).
