July Perfume Sample Fairy Godmother

Esperanza the Perfume Fairy Godmother

Hey, it is time again for the Perfume Sample Fairy Godmother post for July.    

So here’s how Fairy Godmother works – this post will be open for the entire month of July 2013.   I’ll start a new one at the beginning of Aguust.  

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.  We have some amazing Fairy Godmothers that show up every month, granting wishes right and left. If you’ve be a recipient of some kindness, do give back when you can. I know people that have gotten wishes granted, and every month they comb through the posts trying to find one or two people they can help out, and it just makes my heart happy.

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)

Hi all, I have gotten interested in/obsessed with a Penhaligon fragrance called Lily and Spice. None of the sample and decant places that I’ve checked have it. If anyone has it and could spare a bit, I’d be most appreciative. I am wooddogs3 awt gmail dawtcawm.

And here we go again. I sent a thank you for a package to the wrong person, so, for the person who sent it, here is your thank you:
Thanks a bunch! The Guerlain is wonderful. I thought I would hate the Bobbi Brown, but it’s a really good suntan lotion smell. The Mimosa is a simple, well made fragrance, very nice. As a ginger freak, the Ginger Essence is right up my alley, lol. My granddaughter Jenna begged me for the Delicious, she loves it. All in all, it was a big hit, and I thank you,
Jan

We had terrible flooding yesterday here in Colorado, so today is clean up day for me, good thing I already said I’d be a slow fairy. More than 2 1/2 inches of rain in an hour, so my basement had water to my ankles. Patty, hope you were on high ground.

Sold at Neiman Marcus late 1970’s, early 1980’s from Ebullience perfumes, small company, two nice guys outside of Philly. Had a great dusting powder with a giant ostrich puff. They also had a men’s scent named Hot Chocolate which came in a tin like Hershey’s powder.
I found Ebullience Perfume Company listed at 125 South Street, Philadelphia, PA 19147

I still have some Shari by Cara Nome – would that qualify as a stripper scent (a long shot, eh?) Here’s a bit about it lifted from my pinterest board: “Shari by Cara Nome, a discontinued fragrance that was first launched in 1927??? From The Vintage Perfume Vault: The Continuing Story of Cara Nome Perfume – about the only information I could find on the vintage fragrance…. but the scent is really nice – a spicy Oriental Vanilla as close as I can guess. Sort of reminiscent of Blue Waltz but lighter, more powdery.”

This stuff is amazing! I must have smelled a sample earlier in my journey, but then I called it a no. Now it has become a yes and no.
It still seems to remind me of a soft leather glove, drying over a sweet wood fire. Then I resmell my arm and get a black tea from somewhere. So, this one gets saved for the first chilly day. Hooray for those little oddities you all send me, and Carolyn, this reminds me of how far I’ve fallen into the rabbit hole, lol.

Hello, all you lovely perfume fairy godmothers! I am dying to find a sample of Estee Lauder’s Private Collection Tuberose Gardenia body cream. The few counters that I’ve seen that carry it, never have a tester out to try it.

Or if that’s too hard to find, does anyone by chance have a large-ish sample or small spray of The Different Company’s de Bachmakov that they don’t mind parting with? I had a teeny bit in a vial to try but really need more juice to test thoroughly. Thanks so much!!

Okay, let me try this again – my posts keep tacking onto the wrong thread, so here goes….

Hi Perfume Fairy Godmothers! I do have a deepest desire this month. I am wondering if anyone has a lonesome decant or so of Monyette Paris that they would like to find a good home for??? My DH has fallen in love with this one on me (I love it too ). Thanks so much!

Greetings Fairy Godparents and Children. I have been looking forward to this post ever since I finished sending off last month’s packages. So much fun!

I wish for something along the lines of Sonoma Scent Studio Tabac Aurea.

I’ve never smelled it, but it has been recommended, and I have a hankering for tobaccos. Also, one of my delightful June Fairy Godmothers put me onto SSS.

I have a new budget rule that I don’t buy samples until I first sample everything available for free in tester bottles in NYC retail shops — in other words, never.

Perhaps a Fairy Godparent can provide the loophole that will let me try stuff that doesn’t retail in these parts?

I will also post ReverseFGM list in the next few days.

I have some Tabac Aurea I’d be happy to send you, along with some other tabacco-type scents if you like (Kilian’s Back to Black?). My email is heather.elizabeth.freeman at gmail 🙂

hi y’all!

I can’t seem to find decants of two Hilde Soliani scents that I love:

Freschiiissimo
Acquiilssssima

if anyone can gift or sell (if that is allowed) either of these I would be in heaven. Thank you! =)

Hi, Everyone,

I am hoping for a sample of Rouge Bunny Rouge’s scent, Lilt.
Isn’t that a lovely name for a fragrance?
Thanks for all your help.

I have some reverse fairy godmother offerings this month. I want to thank all the wonderful people who have gifted me in the past few months. I’ve been having a blast with all the beautiful surprises! I couldn’t participate last month because I was on vacation, but I’m back and here’s what I have to offer:

Ralph Lauren Safari edp vintage 1 ml.

Montale White Aoud 1 ml.

Miller Harris L’air de Rien edp 1 ml.

Alexander McQueen My Queen edp 1 ml.

Schiaparelli Shocking edp vintage 1 ml.

Laura Mercier Vanille Gourmand 1 ml.

Lucien Lelong Indiscret vintage 1 ml.

Cara Nome Shari col. vintage 1 ml. (a really obscure fragrance company from the US – don’t know much about them, but interesting)

I’m sorry, i made a mistake on the White Aoud – I have less than 1 ml. left in there, enough for a testing or so – it’s pretty strong though.

Somehow my message got tacked onto an unrelated thread so I’ll repeat it and see what happens…..

So Heather slipped in a little Possets gem, thank you Heather, and you will love the name… Hwah-Teh’s Mouse is giving off amber, tobacco and white musk, maybe? Smells like fall and winter with a good book and wine.
