April Perfume Sample Fairy Godmother

perfume sample fairy godmother

Esperanza the Perfume Fairy Godmother

It’s time for the April Perfume Sample Fairy Godmother post.  You can post one thing you are  longing for – perfume sample or perfume decant or full bottle.

So here’s how it works – this post will be open for the entire month of April 2013.   I’ll start a new one at the beginning of May

For those of you new or that need a reminder of how this works – in comments you can list one thing that you are yearning for and can’t seem to get –  a perfume sample is the easiest wish to grant for me.  Or you can wish for a full bottle, decant, vintage perfume or discontinued perfume you can’t find.  If someone has it and can help you out, they can reply to you in comments and then you can arrange to go offline through e-mail to work things out.  Please don’t post e-mails in comments unless you spoof them somehow, like this – patty at perfumeposse dawtcawm (spelling the dotcom at the end that way prevents robots from finding it as easily). Caveat Emptor and all that, don’t send people money, check out their references on MUA or Basenotes or the Facebook groups before you send something in a swap, if you wind up doing a swap.  

If it’s a gift, send away.  I should note that  it’s more likely that a Fairy Godmother will happen along if you are a fairly regular commenter on The Posse and people recognize your name.

I’ll also play Perfume Posse Fairy Godmother and go through the list every month and grant some perfume sample wishes. I’ll pick from ones that nobody has been able to help with – I’ll spin my random.org wheel  – and send them The Precious.

So what is it that your heart desires?  (pulling out wand from the back of the closet and blowing off an inch of dust)

    Ok, I amend my wish to something else. How about Bottega Veneta fairy godmother? =O|

    • hajusuuri says:

      Hello Patty, If you are in the U.S., I would be happy to send you 2 Bottega carded spray samples. You can contact me by clicking on my name.

  • Debra H says:

    Aloha – I just found this website this afternoon & messaged the webmaster, but thought I would see how the Fairy Godmother works as well 🙂 Do any of you know where I can find “Aqua Mist” by Bath & Body Works? They had it for a brief time in the late ’90’s and my mom loves it, but I can’t find it online anywhere. She’s been hoarding the last little bit in the bottle for years & I know she would love to receive it for Mother’s Day or her birthday! Thanks for your help!

  • Patty Pong says:

    Creed’s Jardin d’Amalfi seems to be a no-go.
    How about Erolfa or Royal Water………………………can the perfume fairy locate one of those? =o\

  • Paula says:

    Anyone ever come across a perfume that smells like Woods of Windsor Forget-Me-Not? It was my all-time favorite and I miss it so much…..Thanks!

  • Emily S says:

    Hey everyone! I just want to post a big public thank you to Carolyn C., my Fairy Godmother this month. Thank you Carolyn! You’ve put a big ol’ smile on my face on more than one occasion! I also just want to remind everyone else that I can offer a sample of Annick Goutal Grand Amour and a sample of Hermes Brin de Reglisse. Some one take these to a good home! Cheers perfumistas!

    • Elia says:

      I’d give them a good home.
      I’m in the EU. eliared at zoho dot com

    • CarolynC says:

      Always a pleasure Emily! Big shout out to the lovely Civet, who has sent me many samples to play with. Wearing Otter Luvr today. Jan, I think this one might qualify as “wierd/unusual,” in a good way!

  • Jan Last says:

    Where on earth are you people getting your nicely colored flexible waterproof tape? So far, I have a coice of red, yellow, white, green. That’s it. And I’m getting these great samples with purple, pink, gold, leopard and you name it. Fess up!!

  • hajusuuri says:

    Dear Perfume Fairygodmother, now that I’ve sent off my last swap package, I am ready to play again. I would dearly love a small spray sample of Amouage Dia for Women. Thank you.

  • poodle says:

    Dear Esperanza, I know I’m late to the party this month but I figured I’d try anyway. See, I think I might need a bottle of Vero Profumo Rubj EDP but the thing is, I’ve never tried the extrait. I was hoping that I could possibly get a few drops of the Rubj Extrait to try to see if perhaps that would be a better version for me to purchase. I’d hate to spend $200+ on the EDP only to find out later that I like the extrait better.

  • Jan Last says:

    If any of you are missing a shipment I promised to send you, please email me at jdeangeo at aol dot com. I’m taking Monday off to catch you all up. I appreciate your understanding while I was working on mu Mom’s arrangements and estate. But the fairy is up and flying again!!!

  • Hobbes says:

    Hi everyone,

    I am excited about sandalwood, vetiver and jasmine scents, but love almost any not very floral scents. I was hoping to try out a few samples from the following ever growing list.

    Santal De Mysore by Serge Lutens
    Bois et Musk
    Coeur de Vetiver Sacre by L’Artisan Parfumeur
    Caligna Eau De Parfum by L’Artisan Parfumeur
    Safrant troublant by L’Artisan Parfumeur
    Al Oudh Eau De Parfum by L’Artisan Parfumeur

    Thanks and looking forward to hearing from you.

  • Merlin says:

    Hi, everyone! A friend is visiting Paris in June and I plan on asking her to bring me Iris Silver Mist. Although I have also tried Rose Nuit and La Myrrh, I have not smelled anything else from this range and would love to try any of the following 4: Encens et Lavende, Bois de Violette, Boxeuses, Santal de Mysore. These all have notes that I love. Also, I live in South Africa…
    Anyone up for a postal safari:)

  • Patty Pong says:

    Is this ended for April already? 🙁
    Still looking to find Creed Jardin d’Amalfi.

    Esperanza you busy? =|

  • Farouche says:

    Dear Fairy Godmother, I live in the US and would love to try Serge Lutens La Fille de Berlin. Many thanks 🙂

  • Ruel says:

    Hello fairy godmother. I’m looking for an online store that has stocks of either the following: Dior Bois D’Argent or Armani Prive Bois D’Encens. I’ve looked in the major US stores and these two seems to have disappeared! 🙁

    • Rina says:

      Hi Ruel! I too, love BdeE and was told by a Saks Armani Beaute SA that it MAY come back to the US this summer, since there is a lot of requests for it. We can only hope. It is still available in European boutiques if you can bribe a friend to bring it back…That said, if you can find Heeley Cardinal, I think it’s super close and has pacified me till Armani is available again. Sorry I don’t have any to share, but I hope that helps a little 🙂

  • Jan Last says:

    To all my Fairy friends who have been waiting patiently for me to ship to them, I wanted to let you know my Mother died and her wake is today. I will begin the packing and shipping tomorrow. I haven’t forgotten any of you! It’s good to have a bunch of friends you’ve never seen, lol.

    • Rina says:

      Oh Jan! Our thoughts are with you and your family!

    • Farouche says:

      My sympathy for your loss. I am so sorry to hear this sad news.

    • CarolynC says:

      Jan, I’m sending you an electronic hug. So sorry to hear about your loss.

    • FeralJasmine says:

      So very sorry to hear of your loss. Hope you’re doing okay.

    • Jan Last says:

      Thanks to all of you for your wonderful messages! My Mom went the best way possible, quickly and on her own terms. All the family managed to get there in time to wish her a good journey. She believed that when she died, her positive energy would merge with what she called the Universal Concience and would become part of the positive energy surrounding all of us every day. So if you find yourself smiling an extra time today, that’s my Mom.

      • Merlin says:

        Jan, the extra smiles came in today too! Best wishes.

      • unseencenser says:

        Wonderful, Jan! Thanks for sharing and do remember to take care of yourself – however well she made her journey, it is bound to be a stressful time for you. Be well!

      • FeralJasmine says:

        All the best to you and your family.

      • Red says:

        It is loving and heartwarming to read that your Mom had the same afterlife thought with my mom who left us last February. Everyday, this youngest son is happy, feeling her hugs of positive energy. Our moms will be missed.

      • poodle says:

        So sorry about your mom. I’m sending a virtual hug and positive energy your way too.

  • LaurenW says:

    I’m a little late to the wishing party, but would love to try a small sample of Soivohle Tobacco Tulle.

  • CarolynC says:

    As promised, some reverse Perfume Fairy Godmother offerings while I wait to see if my wish above (for Guerlain’s Arsene Lupin Dandy) is granted:

    • Civet says:

      Hi Carolyn, I’d love to try the Strange Invisible Perfumes. Thanks! And . . . I’m almost positive I do actually have a small sample of Arsene Lupin Dandy, since I tried it a couple of weeks ago. As soon as I’m back home I will dig it out and send to you!

      • Civet says:

        Oops, email is civetohell at gmail dot com

      • Civet says:

        Hi Carolyn, well I’m so sorry but I just got home and tore the place apart, and I can’t find that Arsene sample anywhere. However, since I now have your address and know some of your favorite notes, I will put together something very special for you!

        Please, fragrance godmother, grant Carolyn C, a very kind and generous perfume lover, a sample of Guerlain Arsene Lupin Dandy!!!

    • Martha says:

      Ooh, I’d like to try the Coty La Rose Jacqueminot. My email is marthadotmcphail10atgmaildawtcom.

    • thegoddessrena says:

      I’ll try the Fior d Arancio. My yahoo address and my screen name arethe same

    • Carolyn C. says:

      Have reached out via e-mail to all posted requests. Only 2 items still available from my reverse perfume fairy godmother list:

      1.5ml sample of Alvarez Gomez Agua de Colonia Concentrada
      1ml sample of Havana Vanille

      Will try to finish testing another batch of samples so I can offer some more reverse fairy godmother items next month.

  • Caroline says:

    Dear Perfume Fairy Godmother,
    Please grant my vintage fragrance dreams of sampling Guerlain Chamade, or perhaps SL A la Nuit… After loving oriental fragrances for so long I’m starting to really fall for chypres and florals…and can’t get enough of jasmine.
    Thank you

  • FeralJasmine says:

    If anyone has an unloved decant or bottle of CSP Vanille Abricot, I can give it a good home. My spring-fever manifestation this year is spraying it around the room before I take a bath. Last season I hated it, so go figure. I’m wooddogs3 awt gmail dawtcawm. Happy spring, everyone!

    • Mary P. Brown says:

      Hi there, I adore CSP Vanille Abricot too! I can supply a 5 ml decant if that would be good enough till you get a bottle. The fairy godmothers have been so very good to me this month I’m glad that I can share something with someone else. My email is shuvanidev at yahoo dot com.

    • Civet says:

      Hi Nero, I’d love to try brin de reglisse if noone’s claimed it yet. Thank you! Civetohell at gmail dot com

      • Lisa D says:

        Oh, your pardon, Civet – I didn’t see your post before I posted mine (I love this iPad, but sometimes I think the display on some pages is just too wonky).

    • Lisa D says:

      Hi Nemo! I’d love to try the Brin de Reglisse – I’ve had very good luck with a few of the Hermessence line, but this is one I haven’t yet sniffed. My email is lisadarty at hot mail dot com. Be happy to send some stuff your way, as well!

  • Emily S says:

    I forgot to mention I can offer someone in the US a sample of Annick Goutal Grand Amour and a teensy bit of Hermes Brin de Reglisse… just let me know 🙂

  • Emily S says:

    Happy April everyone 🙂 This month I’m wishing for a decant of Serge Lutens Fumerie Turque. Cheers!

  • Mary P. Brown says:

    Did the Surrender to Chance website just go down? I was on and now I can’t access it – it says a 502 bad gateway code???

    That’s a good idea! Thanks!

  • Tam says:

    Hello Fairy Godmother,

    I’m new to the world of perfume (and it’s my first time on this site) but I’ve been enjoying this journey! The fragrance I’ve fallen in love with at first whiff is Rose Ikebana and I would love a decant. Suggestions for other perfumes would also be appreciated especially light, floral ones since we are heading into spring.

    Cheers,
    Tam

  • Estelle says:

    Dear Fairy Godmother,

    Thank you,

    Estelle

My top choice would be Honey Blossom, though I’m also interested in Haute Clair and Fig. I’m also a huge fan of Micallef Vanille Marine, but my sample is almost gone, woe! I don’t have much to offer that I haven’t already offered to give other Fairy Godmothers this week, but please contact me at crazkcfish at gee!mail dot com and I would love to try to work out something to give you in return : )

    • Red says:

      I do not know why this post went to number 60. I’m trying again and hoping its okay now.

      Never ever have I experienced Bond no. 9 and Creed VIW (except Aventus from STC) as niche boutiques

      I’m interested in Micallef Vanille Mouska & Vanille Fleur. My email address is martha dot mcphail10 at Gmail dot com.

      Thank you, good perfume fairy.

    • Merlin says:

      Hi Pklagrange! If you have a sample left of Silver Factory I would love to try it… My email is merlynn dot edelstein @ gmail dotcom Do you by any chance have New Haarlem (curious because I am a coffee addict). I don’t have a long list of samples I can send back – but I hope to have something that will interest you:)

  • Erica Y. says:

    Hello FG! I had a ton of fun wishing and granting wishes last month, thank you!

    This month, I am very curious about fragrances I’ve heard about in passing but never seem to find anywhere, and that I can’t get a handle on from the reviews I’ve read. Basically, unlike most frags, I can’t tell if I would even like these! Which of course makes them fascinating. The ones that have me wondering are ELdO’s Rien (how does “nothing” smell??), Kenzo Jungle L’Elephant (some descriptions sound awesome, some sound awful, and I can’t pin the notes down) and also Nanadeberry Pink. Any one of these would be a neat adventure.

    I’ll stalk the post/comments to see what I have that I can do wishes with as well. This is so fun!

    • Poodle says:

      Finally! Someone who wants something that I have. I was beginning to think another month would go by and I wouldn’t be able to grant a wish. I can let you smell “nothing”. I can’t help you with the other two unfortunately. Email me at pokeypoodle at Verizon dot net.

    • FeralJasmine says:

      I can send you a sample vial of L’Elephant if you’re in the US.

    • FeralJasmine says:

      Sorry, forgot to include my email. It’s wooddogs3 awt gmail dawtcawm

  • Jamie says:

    Dear Perfume Fairy,

    I’m looking for a beautiful gardenia perfume that would fall into the Perfume Posse’s classification of “a pretty perfume that’s kinda gardenia” or “Gardenia Hall of Shame”! Specifically I’m interested in Jo Malone Vintage Gardenia, Kai, Monyette Paris, Arquiste Boutonnière No. 7, or one of the gardenias by Dawn Spencer Hurwitz.

    I’m a little scared of the bleu cheese smelling ones (even though I haven’t smelled any of those). Maybe I’d try one? Maybe…I just can’t see myself ever appreciating the stinky bleu cheese!

    Respectfully,

    Jamie

    P.S. Last week I received a small decant of Van Cleef and Arpels Gardenia Petale and loved it!

    • Lisa D says:

      Hi Jamie – I don’t have the specific gardenias you listed, but I do have Annick Goutal’s Un Matin d’Orage (After the Storm) which is a very pretty, fresh and watery gardenia, that gets a bit earthy in the drydown. I can send you a large sample to try – email at lisadarty at hotmail dot com if you’re interested.

    • Dana says:

      I can send some Kai your way! Email at pekerwonan at yahoo dot com.

  • Amy K says:

    Thanks, Tara! I just sent you an email.

  • Dear Fairy Godmothers, I would love a little sample of Lancome O Intense. I have lots of vintage things and can offer something as a swap. I love patchoulis and have a good variety of those, also. I live in the US. XO

  • Joni Dischner says:

    Thank you, so much, Jan. Now I will have to read the “how to decant” article on this wonderful site. Have you thought about downloading a CD spine label template and printing on a sheet of vinyl. I got mine CD spine label template (for MS Word) at World Label. You’d have to cut them out, but they’d be water/perfume proof and would stick nicely.

  • Elena says:

    I would like to try Vero Profumo Rubj. I usually do really well with skank/cumin, and it sounds fab! Any tiny amount will do, even if it’s a partially used teeny sample. I am in the US.

  • sasha says:

    I have 4 mls each of Lutens Musc Koublai Khan and Cuir Mauresque looking for a good home.

    I also have some Andy Tauer samples, a little bit of Vero Parfumo Mito, some By Kilian Back to Black and a miscellaneous collection of Slumberhouse samples (no Pear and Olive, I’m sorry).

    I can mail anywhere in Europe.

    I have a 3/4 full bottle of Dzing! that I can’t quite bring myself to give away, but would be happy to trade.

    My hearts only desire this month is a decant of Lutens Rose de Nuit.

    • Dana says:

      Hi Sasha, how can you be contacted? I’d love to have Mito and Slumberhouse samples. Also, Dzing! is always welcome. Please drop a line to pekerwonan at yahoo dot com.

    • Dana says:

      Oh, and I have a slightly used bottle of Coeur de Vahine Comptoir Sud Pacifique looking for a new home, anybody?

      • Katrin says:

        Hi!
        Just mailed you about Tauers!

      • Jan Last says:

        I would give that Sud Pacifique a new home! jdeangeo at aol dot com, and thank you!

      containing each of these notes.or combined with others… Thank you.

  • Joni Dischner says:

    I am new to the glorious world of perfume. I haven’t built up a collection yet to be able to play fairy perfumemother, myself, but if anyone has samples of one of the following, I’ll leave a tooth under my pillow:

    Amouage Ubar – new iteration
    Montale Red Vetyver
    Magie Noire – vintage

    Also, if someone could let me know where can I get materials to make my own samples, when the time comes (soon, I hope), I’d appreciate all the help I can get.

    • Jan Last says:

      Joni, I buy the 2.5 ml spray bottles from Surrender to Chance. You can find them a little cheaper elsewhere, but supporting the people from the Posse is a very good thing. I get pipettes and funnels from them too.My only other have to have is Scotch Decorate and repair tape in colors, to keep my mailed bottles from leaking. A label printer would be nice, but not in my immediate future, lol

      • Joni Dischner says:

        For some reason, when I replied to this, it posted my response at the bottom, so I am reposting here in case you might miss it, Jan:

        Thank you, so much, Jan. Now I will have to read the “how to decant” article on this wonderful site. Have you thought about downloading a CD spine label template and printing on a sheet of vinyl. I got mine CD spine label template (for MS Word) at World Label. You’d have to cut them out, but they’d be water/perfume proof and would stick nicely.

        Also, what I didn’t say below, is that I would be happy to send you a few sheets of 8 1/5 x 11 vinyl to print on, if you want to try it before investing anything in it. Just send me an email AgFang35 at aol dot com.

        Happy day!

        • Jan Last says:

          Thank you for the suggestion. I will go ahead and pick up the vinyl (i presume it has a peel off sticky side) and have just downloaded a template for the cd spine label.

          • Joni Dischner says:

            Yes, Jan, it does have a peel-off sticky side. That ought to get you by till you can budget some perfume money for a label printer. 🙂

    • alityke says:

      Joni, where are you? I can help with a decant of Ubar but I’m in the UK so shipping outside is risky

    • Tara says:

      I have Montale Red Vetyver, pls email me at cazaubon at me dot com.

      • Joni Dischner says:

        Tara: I sent you an email. For some reason, when I try to reply to specific posts, my posts just show up at the bottom of the threads. So, thank you, wherever this ends up being displayed, and I hope you are having a delicious day. 🙂

  • RuthF says:

    Hello, I’d love to try By Killian amber oud. I’m in Australia and would love to reciprocate! ruthfarrelly at gmail dot com

  • Katrin says:

    Dear fairy godmothers! I’d like to sample something from Lancome’s La Collection line (I only have Magie which I love).
    (am located in Europe).

    • Dana says:

      Dear Katrin,
      Please e-mail me at pekerwonan at yahoo dot com with your address and a sample of Cuir de Lancome is on its way to you!

  • Heather F says:

    Dear Posse godmothers, y’all are awesome, first off-it needs to be said. I would love to try something from the Huitieme Art line this month, if anyone has a sample to spare (I’d love to swap for them). I was recently sent a bit of Naiviris, which was lovely, and I’d love to explore the line a bit more. Thanks!!

  • Tara says:

    Dear fairy godmother, I would love a 5 ml decant of SL De Profundis… Have tons of perfume I can offer in swap too!

  • Georgette Stout says:

    Dear Sweet and Generous Perfume Fairy Godmother, Sorry I missed y’all last month but I am back. Leather freak that I am, I’m hoping I can seek a small decant of Cuir Fetiche by MPG. Perhaps , too much to hope for . I will be checking the list to see if there are any wishes I might grant also. BTW I am in Texas, USA. Love y’all!

    • Hi Georgette,

      I’m in Texas too, and I don’t know if you had an amount in mind that you’re looking for, but I have a small amount left in my Cuir Fetiche sample that I’d be happy to send you. It’s probably only about 1/4ml, so I know it’s kind of piddly, but if you’re interested my email is countsjc at gmail.

  • Nemo says:

    Dear Fairy Godmother,

    I would love a decant of Hermes Jour d’Hermes. I tried it for the first time a few days ago, and I don’t know how I have lived without it. Alternately/also, I would love suggestions for perfumes with lots of sandalwood 🙂 Thanks so much!

    • NeenaJ says:

      Hi Nemo,

      You’re welcome to my samples of 10 Corso Como and SSS Cocoa Sandalwood to a good home. Sadly, neither compliment me very well. Hope you’re in the US! If you want them, email me at jpreciose at gmail dot com.

  • AnnieA says:

    *Closing eyes and wishing* I would like to sniff a sample of Mauboussin’s Histoire d’Eau Topaze (don’t know whether being in Canada would prove to be problematic). Am at a123amos at inbox dot com…

    • Lisa D says:

      Hi AnnieA! If you’re referring to the original Histoire d’Eau (as opposed to Histoire d’Eau Amethyste) I can send you a sample. Email me at lisadarty at hotmail dot com.

      • AnnieA says:

        How thoughtful! Have just sent you a message — hope it doesn’t get stuck in the Spam file.

  • Carolyn C. says:

    Dear Fairy Godmother,

    Guerlain’s Arsene Lupin Dandy has been on my sniffing wishlist for ages. Would love a sample/small decant.

    Will be posting some reverse fairy godmother samples that I’d love to see go to a good home later tonight as well.

  • Helene says:

    Jo Malone’s Honeysuckle & Jasmine… Discontinued 🙁
    Mi Angelic – Gypsy Discontinued…
    Is ther a stash out there? Somewhere?

  • Lynne Marie says:

    Dear Fairy Godmother,

    I live in the US and if any of you have some unloved Montale Chocolate Greedy I would give it a very good home. My little 3ml decant is gone and I’m finding that it was becoming my go-to daytime scent. Who would have thought?

    • Connie says:

      I don’t have a lot to offer, but I can tide you over with a 1.5 mL sample until you’re able to get your hands on some more. My email is connie at ginkwunk dot net. 🙂

      • Lynne Marie says:

        Thanks so much, Connie! Emailing you now…

        • Connie says:

          Hi Lynne, I haven’t achieved an email yet and want to be sure there’s not a computer problem happening. 🙂

          • Lynne Marie says:

            I’ll try you again but if I fail my email is clevelandvitz1 at gmail dot com

  • Mary Orlin says:

    Dear Perfume Fairy,

    I would love any amount of Byredo’s Black Saffron – sample, decant, bottle. Always seems to be sold out!

  • Dear Perfume Fairy,

    My wishes aren’t terribly specific this month.. I’d just like to fill in some gaps. I’ve been hearing a lot about Neela Vermeire of late, but I haven’t tried any of them, so I’d like to try something of hers. I’ve also been wanting to try Sonoma Scent Studio but haven’t gotten around to it. I’m specifically interested in Forest Walk and Fig Tree, but again, anything will do.

  • Alison says:

    Hi Fairy Godmother of April! I would love any size of Serge Lutens Tuberose Criminelle, from small decant to abandoned bottle. I am in the US and would be happy to pay postage! Thanks Alison

  • Lotta says:

    SuzyQ
    I could make you a sample of Dune!

    Email Me at lottalotta@ hotmail.com

  • Connie says:

    Dear Perfume Fairy Godmother,
    Thank you for enabling me to grant people’s wishes and have my own granted in as well. I am also very happy to say that you have enabled me to develop mutual and ongoing swap relationships with a few people, which has been very fun. I am located in the US, and would love to try any of the Vero Profumos.
    Thank you again FG!

    • Civet says:

      Hey Connie! I can throw in some Kiki with the Amoureuse and Monsieur Balmain.

      • Kacey says:

        Ooh, you’re going to LOVE Kiki! I sniffed it once at Scent Bar and will dream of it until the next time I can manage to get back down to LA! Enjoy : )

  • Red says:

    Hello Wonderful Fairies,

    Niche Niche Yo Niche!!!

    I’m slowly discovering niche perfumes and I’m very interested on notes about woods, florals, green, incense, amber, mint, orientals & gourmand.

    I hope fairies would notice my post & shower upon me amazing perfume decants & samples having these notes from different niche houses. I’m not picky, whatever great niche fragrances you have for me please let my home be on them.

    Thank you fairies.

    • Hi Red,

      Are you in the U.S.? If you are, I’d be happy to put a sample set together for you. Might take a little bit because I need to get vials, though. If you’re interested my email is countsjc at gmail dot com.

    • Red says:

      Awaiting for lovely fairies to grant my niche wishes above… Any niche with any note that has it.

      Oh and may I take this moment to greet the wonderful people at

      Surrendertochance =====> Happy Anniversary!!!! Yey!!! Hurrah!!!

      Cheers to all of you guys and wishing you more sales, success and making more people great smelling!!!!

  • E.Lime says:

    I would love a decant or a sample of SL muscs koublai khan. I want to find out if it’s soft and cuddly or monstrous on my skin!

    • E.Lime says:

      PS I am in the US and can be reached at plinkplath at yahoo dot com.

    • Lynne Marie says:

      I’d be happy to send you a sample of MKK. I wanted to love it ( since I love most SL’s but, alas, it became a big ol’ hairy monster on me! I’ll email you to get your address

  • Jodi Posner says:

    Hello from very cold England !!!
    I have been searching for Laura Ashley’s No.2 for the past 10 years. Laura Ashley has not answered my emails and it appears that this scent has disappeared off the planet. Yes it was a bad choice of names but I really liked this green scent. I will be happy to pay for any postage costs to the UK. Many thanks !!!!!!

  • odonata9 says:

    I love this post – reading through and seeing all the generous perfumistas makes my day! I would love to try a sample of Marni or Frederic Malle Dries Van Noten. I’m in the US.

    And since I’ve had a few wishes granted, I’d love to share – if anyone in the US is dying to try the last batch of By Kilians (In The Garden of Good and Evil), I have a carded mfr sample set of all 3 I’d be happy to send on.

  • Kacey says:

    Hello all! I’d be overjoyed to try anything at all from the Aftelier line (I’m in the US). Also: I’ve got a manufacturer’s/carded sample of Robert Piguet Fracas I’d be happy to gift, if there are any US takers!

    Contact me at crazkcfish at gee! mail! dot com.

    • Civet says:

      Finally somebody I can grant a wish to! Kacey, I can send you some of the Ancient Resins body oil if you’re interested. It’s awesome, and lasts like a perfume.

    • Heather F says:

      Sending you an email, Kacey–I can send a few Aftelier samples along 🙂

  • Jan Last says:

    Bring it on April!! This is more fun than I should be allowed to have! I would love to try any of the oddball scents out there. And I can’t wait to send out more stuff!! So, send me your weird, your lame, your personal strange.

    • Rina says:

      aka the “Oh HELLS No!” ?

    • Civet says:

      Oh, boy! Have you tried Brent Leonesio’s Untitled # 8? Say the word, and I’ll inflict it on you!

    • Carolyn C says:

      Hey Jan. You are sprinkling fairy dust everywhere this month!! I presume you’ve smelled Dzing? That’s a weird, oddball scent that I adore. What about Onice? I think that’s a bit of an oddball as well. Lucky Scent describes thusly:

      Not every fragrance can be described in a line or two – some take a winding path to get to their destination. Onice is one of those fragrances. It opens with a fresh, green, vegetal note. We smell celery, which isn’t listed in the notes. Then we get the beginnings of a dense and complicated sweetness that reminds us of immortelle, which is also not listed in the notes. Just when we are about to ignore the notes altogether we get a definite dollop of licorice and a delightfully sweet pineapple – both listed and both very present as they waltz with a variety of partners. Delicate hyacinth, sharp mint, earthy cedar, a dusting of nutmeg. It’s an enchanting and unusual journey, that appears to lead to different places for different people– on some Onice is sweet and fruity, on others the green and wood notes dominate. The consensus is that it is light and fresh without being aquatic or soapy or citrus— and that it is very hard to pin down exactly what it smells like, although we all agree that it smells quite good. Intriguing.

      If you are interested in either Dzing or Onice e-mail me at bogsc at aol dawt com and I’ll hook you up with some.

      • Jan Last says:

        Of course I am!! When I last replied to you, my comment for some reason fell to the bottom. jdeangeo at aol dot com. And I have some new stuff you may want to try, too!

      • Jan Last says:

        Carolyn, thanks so much for the Dzing and the Swiss Arabian Onice, which went into the no, no file, lol. The
        hauntingly interesting Laboratorio Olfattivo Decou-Vert is actually going into FB ramp-up.

        • CarolynC says:

          The Swiss Arabian Perfumery was actually the maker of the Noora attar I hope I sent? Can’t remember who makes Onice at the moment. Dzing didn’t work for ya huh? Take it you aren’t a fan of elephant butt in your perfume? 🙂 So thrilled to hear that you think the Decou-Vert may be FB worthy.

  • Civet says:

    Dear Esperanza,

    My wish this month is for some Vintage Vetiver by Guerlain.
    I could also wish for an introduction to Arquiste, with Anima Dulcis and Aleksandr sounding most interesting.
    I’m in the EU.

    cheers

    • alityke says:

      Hi Julie
      I’m in the UK and can help with a decant of Chinatown. drop me a line at alityke2 at a o l dot com. I am concerned about UK post outside the UK though

      So sorry that I forgot to say I’m in the U.S. (probably under another username, but I forgot what it was too). Ahh…one of those days (but my Auric Blends Vanilla oil and Zum Frankincense and Myrr perfume always help).

    • Jan Last says:

      I can probably send you a LITTLE ol bottle, lol. I am jdeangeo at aol dot com.

  • Martha says:

      • Birgit says:

        Hi Dana, I just gave away two Byredo samples, the Byredo – Black Saffron and M/Mink, the others are yours, I will send you an email.

        • Dana says:

          Oh Birgit the generous! Got your package tomorrow, you made my week (month?) Thank you for huge manufacturer’s spray (yes!) samples and for wonderful complements!

          • Birgit says:

            You are welcome Dana, I’m glad they arrived safely to your home. Enjoy!

          • Dana says:

            Thanks again! Let me know when you get my end:-) BTW, I’m stunned with Byredo Green and cannot find a FB anywhere, is it discontinued?

          • Birgit says:

            Yes I will let you know when I get your package. I don’t think its discontinued, it’s on the Byredo website, they ship to European Union and the US.

            http://byredo.com/en/product/32/green

          • Birgit says:

            Thank you so much Dana! I got a wonderful package today, filled with surprises for me. I love everyone of them, many I haven’t even heard of! And Blanc by Paul & Joe made by one of my favourite perfumers Jean-Claude Ellena, one of his fragrances that I haven’t tried. I will have a blast trying all of these out!

    • Mary P. Brown says:

      Hello Birgit,

      I would love some Organza Indecence and maybe a bit of the Chanel’s – 31 Rue Cambon and Bois des Iles – I have always wanted to try these, oh, and the Back to Black. I also have a few that I have that you might be interested in. Email me: shuvanidev at yahoo dot com

      Back to Black

      If they are still available. I would love to send you somethings to return. I am in Europe.

        Hi, I am sorry I didn’t see your comment in march, I will send you some Hermes samples now instead. The Chanel samples are gone, but I can send you the Back to Black. Send me an email at birgit dot lindgren at gmail dot com

    • Alison says:

      Hi Birgit, I’d love to try the Byredo Green. My email is milleralison03 at yahoo dot com. Send me a note and perhaps I have something you would like in exchange!

      Hopefully I will have something to surprise you with as well!

  • Mariekel says:

    Well hello there, FG,

    I am absolutely craving hyacinths right now. I would love, love, love a decant of Patricia de Nicolai’s Jacinthe room spray (now sadly discontinued) or L’Artisan’s Jacinthe des Bois (the only L’Artisan I have ever loved). If those are too tall an order, I would be delighted with a decant of Chanel Cristalle EDT — vintage or current. You’re the best!

    • Dana says:

      Dear Mariekel, unfortunately I don’t have Patricia de Nicolai or L’Artisan, BUT i have a partial bottle of hyacinth Silences by Jacomo I’m ready to give away. Haveyou sniffed this one? Please contact me at pekerwonan at yahoo dot com.

      • Mariekel says:

        Hi Dana,

        That is very sweet of you, but I have a full bottle of Silences already! I am despondent over that Nicolai — it smelled exactly like hyacinths in full bloom.

        • Dana says:

          Oh, must try it then! I’m also hyacinth-obsessed. I beleive you have a FB of Bas de Soie?

          • Mariekel says:

            Have a sample of Bas de Soie but it doesn’t do it for me. all I get is hairspray. Patricia de Nicolai is a whiz with hyacinth — the notes are gorgeous and true in Temps d’une Fete, Coeur en Mai and that lovely room spray. But I would love ANY true hyacinth. I have a potted one blooming in my living room right now, but their presence is so brief!

            Come to think of it, I’d love a soupcon of that Coeur en Mai…

          • Mariekel says:

            Email is lauryn d b at gmail dot com if anyone has a hyacinth they’d be willing to part with. Or any Cristalle EDT…

          • Farouche says:

            If you are in the US and still need the Cristalle EDT, please email me at pattor at rcndotcom.

    Dear Fairy Godmother,
    My wish come true would be a spray sample/decant of Dune.
    Your faithful servant,

  • Bridget Callaghan says:

    I am dying to try Yves Rocher Vanille Pistache. I know it is discontinued. I tried the Laura Mercier Eau Gourmand Creme de Pistache but there is one note (bergamot I think due to its similarities to angel) that just doesn’t groove with my nose. I would love to try this and anyone out there has some, please let me know!

  • fleurdelys says:

    Dear Fairy Godmother, I’d love a sample from Sonoma Scent Studios, either Forest Walk or Nostalgie. If you can fulfill my wish, please email me at patricialschneider at yahoo dot com.

  • masha7 says:

    I would like to try any of the Ramon Monegals. I have already tried the Entre Naranjos (Orange cologne) and liked it very much. I’d love to try any others from the line. Thank you!

  • mridula says:

    I am longing to try L’artisan’s Premier Figuier parfum strength. Alternately Diptiyque’s phylosikos. Fig is a note I would like to experience. Thank you for this chance Perfume Fairy. I had a very good experience in March – both giving and receiving.

  • Dana says:

    Dear Perfume Fairy
    I’m craving for the almond-musky wonder Blanc by Paul & Joe. Unfortunately, I cannot find it anywhere, online included (some Canada-located store has it, shipping to Canada only. And I am not in Canada!). Any sprayable amount will be most appreciated.

    • odonata9 says:

      Hi Dana – I think I have a small decant at home. Let me check and I’ll get back to you – are you in the US?

  • jewels says:

    Happy Spring! In February I emptied my tiny vial of the rhubarb & apple goodness that is Aedes de Venustas Eau de Parfum. Any replacement amount to lift me through this damp season would be much appreciated.

  • rosarita says:

    Greetings, Fairy Godmother, and happy spring! I live in the US and am seeking any amount of Angel Taste of Fragrance. A lovely swapper sent me a sample and it has the best dark chocolate smell I’ve ever smelled. I am really seeking a decant but any amount would be welcome, and I have goodies I can send in return. Please contact me at: opponatrix at gmail dot com.

    • Sherri says:

      Hi Anita, If you don’t mind waiting a week or two, I’d be happy to send you some! I am out of decanting supplies and need to order some. Just contact me at sherrimiller at me dot com! 🙂

  • Dina C. says:

    Dear Perfume Fairy,
    I would like a large sample of Biehl mb02. I sniffed it once and loved it. I’m here in the East coast of the U.S. Thank you so much!
    Dina C.

  • Amy K says:

    Dear Perfume Fairy,
    I waited too long to order a replacement bottle of Ormonde Jayne Woman, and now the shipping charges are half the cost of the bottle! If you have a dusty old decant or partial bottle lying around, I would give it a happy new home. Thank you!

  • springpansy says:

    Dear Fairy Godmother of Perfume,

    I would love to have a bit of By Kilian Back to Black. I live in the U.S. I would be happy to provide something for the fairy godmother in return if he/she also lives in the U.S. : )

    Thanks,
    Debby

  • Karis says:

    Dear Perfume Fairy Godmother,

    I live in the U.S. and would love anything by Sarah Horowitz. I am open to any of her fragrances. I am new to perfume and figuring out what I like. Her line seems very special and the few I’ve sampled have been amazing.

    If there are any unloved full or partial bottles or decants out there, I will love them and give them a good home.

    Thank you!

    • mridula says:

      Dear Karis, I hope someone will come through for you. I don’t have any of this line but Sarah Horowitz line has a very generous offer: I you can get three teeny samples of nearly anything they have by liking the Sarah Horowitz face book page. Go look at their home page and follow the directions there.

      • Karis says:

        Thanks mridula. I did that which is how I discovered her line. They actually chose two and they were great! perfect veil and coconut milk. I would love more of those or perfect nectar, gardenia, vanilla…or anything from what comes from within or her monthly LEs…If anyone has anything they are willing to part with. Thanks.

    • Lisa D says:

      Hi Karis:

      I have one of the mini pure oil roll-on bottles of Perfect Bliss that could use a good home, and somebody to love and wear it! Email at lisadarty at hotmail.com.

  • thegoddessrena says:

    Somebody keep me from buying Boucheron Jaipur Saphir unsniffed! I love the bottle and sapphires are my birthstone (my birthday is in Sept but must plan in advance)

    • Christine W says:

      Hi Rena, I can send you a sample – contact me at cwest9 (at) gmail (dot) com
      Cheers
      Christine

    • springpansy says:

      Rena – I emailed you – let me know if you didn’t receive it.

    Dear fairy godmother, Im dying to try neela vermeires mohur or Bombay bling! Stockholm has a lot to offer , but niche perfumery is not one of them 🙂
    All the best!

  • Ann says:

    Might any of you lovely perfume fairy godmothers have some vintage Aviance fragrance by Prince Matchabelli? I smelled something recently that reminded me of it and would love to try it again. Thank you!!

  • Mary says:

    Dear dear Fairy Godmother — I am longing for any quantity of vintage Opium pure parfum. Pleeeeeeze?

    • Farouche says:

      Mary, I’ve got it, and if you are in the US, I’ll be happy to share. Please email me at pattor at rcn dot com

  • Patty Pong says:

    Dear Fairy,

    I wish for Creed Jardin d’Amalfi. Can you make my summer wish come true? =o|

  • Rene Groyer (@ReneGroyer) says:

    Oops you wanted one,well then its the Chanel

  • Rene Groyer (@ReneGroyer) says:

    Chanel Cristalle and Lentherics Tramp ,I really loved these and now they are not available 🙂

  • lucasai says:

    Dear Esperanza the Perfume Fairy Godmother! In March you fulfilled my wish and I also helped to fulfill a perfume wish of other perfumista friend. I hope that this month your magic wand is also very generous and that it’ll make my little perfume dreams come true.
    There are three things that I would LOVE to try this month: Prada Infusion d’Iris l’Eau d’Iris, Dior Gris Montaigne and Amouage Opus VII, that’s all. I will be very happy for at least one of these!
    Thank you Esperanza, your magic is beyond imagination!
