Perfume Sample Fairy Godmother November 2014

Esperanza the Perfume Fairy Godmother

 

 

Hey, it is time again for the Perfume Sample Fairy Godmother for November 2014.     So here’s how Fairy Godmother works – this post will be open for the entire month of November 2014.   I’ll start a new one at the beginning of December.   For those of you new or that need a reminder of how this works – in comments you can list one or two things 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 been the recipient of some kindness, do give back when you can. I know people 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 sometimes play Perfume Posse Fairy Godmother and go through the list 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)

    Thank you for your time!

    Good Morning Ladies,

    I’ve had such a great month with generous swappers and two ladies granted my requests for free! So I would like to pay it forward the best way I can.

    I will send a small variety of fragrant, delightful TEAS to the first four ladies to send me their address within the US (just can’t afford to send to Canada or International).

    • Vanie says:

      I have a miniature of Histoire d’amour from the 90s. I have no idea how it compares to the “modern” version as I haven’t smelt that one, but I can make you a sample if you’re interested. My email is vanessa dot b dot laperriere in the gmail.

  • Katherine says:

    Any tiny sample of Tom Ford Fleur de chine or White Patchouli would be greatly appreciated. I live in the us.

    • odonata9 says:

      I can send you some White Patchouli. Send me your info to jasouza9 in the land of hotmail, and what other kinds of things you like adn I can send you a few other random samples as well.

  • Dear Fairies, I would really like to try something from Smell Bent. I haven’t tried anything from that brand yet, so anything will do. Email me at countsjc at the gee mail.

  • Tena says:

    Happy November Fellow Fairies. With the colder season, this Canadian would love to try some incense focused frags to pep up the spirits or some sweet honey-centric scents to mellow out with. Reverse offering gratefully available. My email is t f k 3 1 (remove spaces) in the town of yahooooo.caum.
    Thanks so much.

  • Draft says:

    Dear fairies, this month I’d love to explore anything from Slumberhouse or Frederick Malle…they sound wonderful and I don’t have much experience with either house. My email is carson r aft (town of gmail). Hope everyone is enjoying the beautiful fall weather as much as I am!

  • Ashley A says:

    Hello wonderful fairies. I would love to try some Dior New Look 1947 or FM Portrait of a Lady. You all are wonderful, as usual.

    • Connie says:

      I believe I have a bit of both that I can help you with!- email is constance (dot) beck-treadway (at) yale (dot) edu

  • Patty Pong says:

    Fairy, I’d like to try this month some Une Nuit Magnetique by The Different Company 🙂

  • Aaron says:

    I am new to collecting and enjoying the world of perfumes. I really would like to sample more from the montale house and the creed house. I am still trying to explore everything that is out there! I would love any and all samples, decants and/or splits. I do not mind mainstream either!

    • Ashley A says:

      Hi Aaron, I have a few Creeds I could send your way and I will throw in some extra surprises as well! Email me at ashley anstaett attt gmail dawt cawmm

  • odonata9 says:

    I’m looking for a sample of PdN L’Eau a la Folie. I am in the US and can be reached at jasouza9 in the land of hotmail.

    I also have a small bag of samples up for grabs if you are in the US. Perfect for a newbie! 10-15 manufacturer and decanted samples, mostly niche, some mainstream.

  • I’ve recently fallen down the rabbit-hole of perfumes and am having a jolly (expensive) time dashing around buying samples and building my vocabulary. Right now I’m on roses. I’d love to get a sniff of Guerlain Rose Barbare and Ormonde Jayne Ta’if. But honestly I’m excited to meet any interesting scent (my favourite so far is Guerlain Jicky). I own one full bottle of Fragonard Miranda and am willing to decant some for swaps if anyone is interested! I am at: jen.wei.lo a+ gm41L d0tt k0m. Thanks!

  • Ellen says:

    I cannot find a sample of Ambre Precieux anywhere. Fairy godmother, I would so appreciate that.

  • MikasMinion says:

    Okay, I’ve been avoiding posting my wishes for fear of sounding greedy but I’m gonna go for it today. I would love to try any of the SHL 777 line but especially O Hira, Khol de Bahrein, and Rose de Petra. Also, I want to experience the weirdness of Chypre Mousse if anyone has a drop to spare. Finally, any of the Roja Dove or Neil Morris samples y’all have laying around unloved would be welcome. See, I told you I’m dreaming big. Really though, one day I will have a collection large enough to grant some wishes of my own. Thank you!

    • MikasMinion says:

      Crumbs. I forgot to post my contact info too. mikasminion in geeeemail-ville if you need to reach me

  • Vanie says:

    Hi fairies!
    I’m getting married next August, so I’m slowly starting to think about my wedding scent. I’ve been reading some Monday Mails over on NST and a few recommendations kept coming up that i’d love to try: Ormonde Jayne Frangipani (and Tiare), Sonoma Scent Studio Champagne de Bois and L’Artisan Séville à l’Aube.
    This is so exciting! Thanks!

  • JanLast says:

    ARGGGHHH! Slow fairy once again, just shipping my Octobers! So sorry to be so late.

  • Julie L says:

    Good Morning fairies!! Thanks for starting this one early! Well, sweeties, I would LOVELOVE to try and of the Molinards Patchouli perfumes; any of the CdG incense series (thanks for my previous sample of Avignon-LOVED it!!)…maybe Parfum Sacre from Caron is another one that sounds up my “incensy, spicy alley” 🙂 Or, maybe a taste of Chanel’s exclusifs line would be so wonderful!! I hope someone has something I can help with this month, too….!! US only, please. Thank you!!

    • JulieL says:

      oh, oops….I’m jullease at yawhoooo.com

    • Becky says:

      Hey, Julie! I can help with the Parfum Sacre, and I have Coromandel if you haven’t tried that Exclisif. I’ll be sending you an email.

      • Julie L says:

        Becky, YAY!! Thank you!! I’m THRILLED about the Caron, and yes, I already do have a sample of Coromandel and ADORE that one….of course, I’ll be glad to take it off your hands, lol, but maybe save it for someone who hasn’t had the opportunity??

      • Julie L says:

        My internet is down, so I hope you see this, Becky! My little fairy package arrived yesterday and i just have no words at the generosity you have shown me. I cannot believe the goodies you sent-ALL of them have been on my “lustlist” for a very long time. You truly went above and beyond my original request-Parfum Sacre- which is just fascinating by the way, and I thank you THANK YOU!!!

        What an awesome group this is! 🙂

  • Connie says:

    Hi fairies! I’d really be so thrilled to try some Smell Bents or any of the Montale color ouds (Red, black, white). I haven’t looked at these lines enough and would love to hear what your favorites are as well, regardless of whether you have any to send along. Any opinions on Smell Bent’s St. Tropez Dispenser, Lucy Fur, Commando, Prairie Nymph, Horny Little Devil, or Lumberjack? It sounds like Brent does musk really well…
    Happy to send along some samples in return.
    Lots of love,
    Connie

    • Lisa D says:

      Hi Connie: I’ve got some Prairie Nymph for you to sample. Send me a holla – lisadarty at hawt mail dawt com.

    • Farouche says:

      Hi Connie, I’d be happy to send you some St. Tropez Dispenser. Just email me at pattor at rcn daht com.

  • Joaquim says:

    Dear fairies, I would love to try something from D&S Durga, like Bowmakers, Siverian Snow or whatever, o something from Parfumerie Generale.
