Lazy Friday poll ~ open thread

Posted by Robin on 20 February 2009 3 Comments

pink flower

Back by popular demand, a repeat of the triple-extra-lazy poll: your basic open thread. Ask a question about fragrance. Anything: where to buy something, what's the best iris scent, whatever. Or, tell us what your scent of the day is, or what is the last thing you bought, or the fragrance you want to buy next. Anything you want.

Then see if anyone else has asked a question that you can answer.

Lazy Wednesday poll ~ open thread

Posted by Robin on 4 February 2009 4 Comments

Today's triple-extra-lazy snow-day poll is essentially an open thread: ask a question about fragrance. Anything: where to buy something, what's the best iris scent, whatever. Or, tell us what your scent of the day is, or what is the last thing you bought, or the fragrance you want to buy next. Anything you want.

Then see if anyone else has asked a question that you can answer.

Lazy Friday poll ~ holiday open thread

Tell us whatever you want! Did you get any wonderful perfumed presents, are you wearing something wonderful today? Are you shopping for after-Christmas bargains?

I meant to buy myself a bottle of Diorissimo extrait for Christmas. Regular readers know I've been wanting one for a very long time. Earlier this month when Saks had a discount code, I went online and ordered it. Surprisingly, the site accepted two coupon codes, so I got a discount plus free shipping. It didn't arrive, and when I called Saks earlier this week, they had no record of my order, and whatever stock they had must had sold out because it's no longer listed on their website. Maybe next year!

Other than that, we had a perfect Christmas, and I'm polishing off the last of the brownies even as I type...
