I love Sinner! I will give Sephora this- they're awesome about taking fragrances back even if they're opened. I had to do that for a Tom Ford fragrance I bought in the heat of the moment but ended up hating :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> So you do have that option if you really hate it. I know a lot of us hate taking back used products, but I figure I spend so much money there that a return here and there isn't going to hurt.

I just picked up a 5 mL rollerball decant of Bvlgari Au The Vert at Surrender to Chance (it was cheaper than The Perfumed Court for this particular fragrance, and the code prettylights = 5% discount) because I couldn't justify buying a full-size bottle. It's the perfect size for travel and was much more affordable. Maybe pick up some small samples of both, and if you finish off the samples, get the big versions?

That bottle sold me (the one that looks like a lighter with skulls)... I bought it sight un-smelled and loved it. So yay! However...sometimes that backfires...like when I bought Betsey Johnson's too-too....I HATE the smell (not only do I hate the smell....It gives me a migraine, and although this is usually a good thing- it LASTS for forever...even my attempts to scrub it off did little to rectify the situation!)...LOVE the bottle. I need to take the perfume out and give it away lol. I only want that stupid bottle.

Yeah, I usually don't return things, but hey- they decided the return policy so I don't feel bad when I do return something, I mean, SOMETHING has got to justify the mark-up we pay =p

Edit- If anyone likes Too-too, please let me know and I will send you like, atomizers or something...when I get atomizers. or whatever. We'll work something out lol. I just have it here sitting around, I absolutely can not wear it...I'd love to send the liquid to a loving home.

Yeah, if I make the treacherous drive into the city I will (if they even have it...I have no stand-alone Sephoras....only 2 SiJCP, and although I love the ladies there, they tend to not have a lot of stuff. ) Or maybe when we're on the way to the airport or something I can see if the stand-alone Sephora in Salt Lake has some to sample.

OMG this happened with me and the middle rollerball in the tokyomilk trio. Sorry if you like it but to me it smelled like cat markings. I put it on gagged and got a wipe. Could smell it the whole rest of the day. I had set it aside for one of the ladies here but the cats knocked it off the counter and then the kitchen smelled like cat marking

I'd die. lol.

 
@slinka I am doing a staycation with my fiance on the strip, and there is a Sephora in the hotel/casino we're staying at, so I can ask them for a sample of both and mail it to you since I owe some ladies here some things and I'm sending something else out in a day or two anyway.

omg I thought I was the only one who didn't like that rollerball! The notes sounded really interesting to me and it was the one I wanted to try most, but once I got it and took a sniff I almost gagged, it smelled like a really dirty public bathroom with pee all over the floor!

Me too it sounded so cool and then PEE that's all you could smell was pee. I was so sad but Hubby LAUGHED!  Apparently he thought it was hilarious that I made faces and kept smelling my arm to see if it was gone which it wasn't which meant a whole new cycle of gag faces re-smell.

lol! I probably would have laughed too if I weren't the one in the same situation! I think I applied about half a swipe to my wrist before that excitement turned to horror.

Cat pee is possible the worst scent EVER. Thanks for the warning!

 
Now I am going to have to sniff the Tokyo Pop again. I never actually put it on since I did not love it but I thought it smelled like a forest. Real woodsy and mossy.

 
Does anyone know when the Merry Christmas Giveaways go live? I would really love to snatch one of the Anna Sui perfumes and Narcisco Rodriguez. So I am hoping that they go live at 12 EST.

nope - definitely not 12 EST. Maybe 12 pacific. I feel like I've seen it at different times after 1:30 eastern (thanks to insomnia :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> ). And sometimes the fragrance may take a while to be available. But since it's going to be so close to Christmas you'll probably be able to score both. The last couple are still available.

I hope you are right! I really want that Anna Sui perfume and its because I really want the perfume but I am afraid it will be super popular because of the bottle. I also have been dying for Narciso for her. It is amazing smelling.

 
just placed another 'sale on sale' order: this time, the givenchy red carpet look set! WAAAHH
