September Perfume Sample Fairy Godmother

Esperanza the Perfume Fairy Godmother

 

Hey, it is time again for the Perfume Sample Fairy Godmother for September!    I’m getting ready to go to Italy for Pitti Fragranze, which I hope to report on next week!

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

For those of you new or that need a reminder of how this works – in comments you can list one-two things (just no long laundry lists) 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 sometimes play Perfume Posse Fairy Godmother and go through the comments 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)

And the questionable shall rise again! I just received the bottle of Salamanca to split up and mail. If I don’t know who you are, I’ll email you. My notes are this: tending a brushfire in the weeds while eating butterscotch and wearing leather gloves

Hello everyone, I have been wanting to try Givenchy’s Pi and Lancome’s Hypnose Homme, Aquolina blue sugar, and in perticular cartiers declaration d’un soir. The rose note seems interesting in a mens perfume. But they don’t exist here it seems.Do anyone have a sample? much love.

Hello, all! I’m new to my scent obsession and trying to learn as much as I can. It’s been a bit imagination heavy, as I don’t quite know what all the notes being described in perfume reviews actually smell like. So if anyone feels like granting a wish for samples that would help me learn and gain an idea of the spectrum of scents that would be awesome (things that spark my fancy probably would have some sort of vanilla, mellowy, toned down quality, but I’m open to anything)! I don’t have many samples to pass on, but I’ll do my best to be a fairy of passing on kindness!

And what is the queen of vanilla’s prime vanilla pick?

12 years ago
Reply to  Elia

There are so many, but if I had to pick one vanilla, it would definitely be the Mona di Orio. I think that it’s one to work up to, because it is not most beginners’ idea of a vanilla, but it is a rare beauty.

Elia

Reply to  FeralJasmine

Good pick. It’s one of the better ones I’ve tried and wonderfully layered, but from my very limited trial I did kinda get that it’s not really a crowd pleaser.

My experience is that most people love the drydown. The earlier phases aren’t as popular. I try to put it on about an hour before leaving the house, and keep that rush of spices and woods for a private treat.

I have fallen in love with Guerlain! And I want to try more, anything would be appreciated, even if it is now discontinued or (ack!) reformulated. I love Shalimar and would really like to try Mitsouko. I have a partial sample of Bombay Bling if anyone is interested in it as well, you can contact me at jmmarshall314 at bell south dawt net.

Speaking of weirdness, I just purchased the three Demeter Elviras from STC, two of them aren’t half bad, and Zombie is pretty wearable. Also got Black Roses and Vamp. Also sampled Cousu de fil Blanc Les Fleurs du Mal Absinthe. What a long, strange trip it’s been, lol.

I’ll see which others I can come up with. I’m sure I have Violette Precieuse and Nuit de Noel, but you do want to smell Tabac Blonde and Parfum Sacre, the vintage Fleur de Rocaille. I was thinking, if any of you out there have some of the others, we could all do a shipment together.

Reverse post — I’ll be quite a bit slower than usual as it is back-to-school now!

And my list is a bit short…. I had so much trouble waiting for this post to go up that I already packed up a bunch of stuff for the ultra-deserving Jan. I haven’t got to the post office yet, though. It really is slow time.

Up for grabs:
A Dozen Roses Electron carded sample slightly used
Olympic Orchids Salamanca (aforementioned) — this is a doozy, and I think it would be smart to send just a mL each to two or three brave souls. Jan, are you on that list?
Chanel No. 22 carded sample slightly used

Dear Esperanza,
Would you please send me any large quantity of any crowd-pleasing scent, masculine feminine or whatever? I am preparing a high school chemistry course, in which we will focus on fragrant materials. I’d like to be able to explore the physical and chemical properties of perfumes. But they’ll need to appeal (at least a little) to anyone and everyone. And I’ll need a lot of it. I *completely* understand if this is beyond the PFG pale.
With admiration as always,

Noooooo! I can’t believe you said Salamanca, that’s what I was going to send her lolololol At least we’re in agreement that it is a weird one! Jan, if you’re interested, I have a bottle I was going to send your way, if leathermountain doesn’t get to it first!

Sounds weird enough to me! Civet is sending something described as the smell of a garage mechanic. this is going to be a fun month! Perfume Annie sent me a Union Quince, Mint and Moss; it was so good on me I got a FB! I received a Demeter Tomato, too. Fire away!!! Oh and Elia sent me an aoud I described as hitting a fly with a sledgehammer, but tiny dabs are very nice!

That one is a FB for me, lol. I love this! I get to smell some wonderful and some horrible, and some in-betweeners I would never get to smell otherwise!

Jan,

I think I can find some odd ones to send your way – I’ve been busy testing this month and there were several that made me go “Whoa, baby!!” I think I still have your address from last month, If not I’ll get back to you 🙂

Dear Fairies –

I’m trying to track down the perfect sandalwood perfume. I’d love to try either Santal Noble or Santal Majuscule, or both!

Thank you very much. 🙂

Dear Fairies,

I’m still wishing to explore the Chanel les exclusifs line,
amongst those I’ve not yet tried are: Coromandel, Sycamore, Bel Respiro, Beige, and Bois des Iles
any one of those would be great.

Hello, all you wonderful Perfume Fairy Godmothers! My request may be a bit of a long shot, but here goes: Does anyone have a sample spray or decant of Jo Loves Gardenia? A dear lady sent me her vial quite a while back and now it is empty 🙁 . I was going to order it from the Jo Loves UK site but the shipping is almost as much as the product itself and my wallet screams “No!” If anyone has some to spare, I have lots of goodies to share in return. Many, many thanks!

Fairy Godmother! It would be a great pleasure to me if anyone I can have my hands on smell bent incensed, especially the perfume oil. I also would love to try St Tropez Dispenser Apres Soleil and Hungry Hungry Hippies

Dearest perfume Godparents! I was very happy I could help Heather last month (hope she got the package alright!)
Every day it’s more and more autumn around in the park.

I have a wish to try Histoires de Parfums 1899 Hemingway, Penhaligon’s Iris Prima and eventually Bottega Veneta Pour Homme.

I live in Poland. To can contact me – click on my nickname and then go to the contact section on my blog.

Good luck to all the fragrant wishes!

Happy autumn everyone! I am obsessed with the thought of a leather/tuberose perfume and would LOVE to sample Mona di Orio’s Nuit Noire!! I’m hoping someone out there has a bottle and is willing to squirt some of it into a sample vial for me! If you have any other leather/tuberose frag, I’m interested in that too! Fingers crossed. <3
