Beekman Bounty Box Autumn/Fall Edition Arrived!

JeanLouiseFinch · ‎10-03-2011

I received my Beekman Autumn/Fall Bounty Box today. Within 5 minutes of opening it, I was in the shower! The scent is called Sweet Autumn Clematis. To tell you the truth, I never thought clematis had a scent. At least the three I have growing don't. Other than that, the scent is aptly described on Evine as "Scented with notes of sweet clematis, citrus, patchouli and golden amber". The soap isn't too strongly scented to be overbearing, but I could detect the patchouli I was hoping for. The lotion is more strongly scented and I could detect the citrus, patchouli, and golden amber, the golden amber being the most prominent and giving a bit of a sultry, almost seductive scent upon application. After letting it sit a few minutes the patchouli came out a little more. Personally, I like it and think it really fits the season.

Thank You for your great review! Reading it makes me green with envy .. I want my Bounty Box NOW! Mine will ship in 10 days, although the summer box came early. I'm a bit hesitant to call CS lest I get another summer kit like you did. Are you able to up the quantity of AD items at evine? That's a great feature here at the Q.

I have two autumn clematis growing on my property. My recollection is a soft, delicately sweet fragrance that fills the air. The vines are so high up their host trees now, it's impossible to reach. They do make a lovely sight in full bloom. And there are other fragrant varieties of clematis also.

Evening temps have started to drop, fall is in the air and this scent sounds like a glorious accompaniment. I anxiously await mine. Enj♡y!!!

@rochelleS Unfortunately with Evine's website, there's no way to increase an order. I wonder, though, if you can do it with a CSR assistance. I do know that if an A/D is cancelled it can be reinstated within 30 days if the customer has second thoughts.

@JeanLouiseFinch Thank you for the review! So not super spicy? Someone mentioned that. I love Amber and patchouli scents so it sounds promising to me and very Fall-ish.

@HappyDaze Correct. I wouldn't call it spicy per se. To me it's a seasonal winner.

I just hung up with Evine CS. There IS a workaround in their system to increase AD quantities. The rep adjusted my delivery date to ship every 30 days. So I will receive my original, scheduled to ship on the 22nd (it is coming earlier than the 26th stated in my acct) and 30 days later another fall BBox. I WILL have to follow up and cxl if additional isn't wanted. @Krissy_1968 are catching this! I very well may have extra if this flies!

Also the same 30 day Ship will apply to the Dec BBox which sounds utterly divine.

Have you or anybody else heard of this alternate way to receive extra AD at Evine? Or am I the guinea pig? I was assured I would not receive the summer box. The rep made a point stating the, my timing was perfect in modifying my shipment date status. So you lovely Beekman Babes, what's you take on this! I'm excited. Hope it works.

Edit adding: @JeanLouiseFinch This change is only through contacting CS. As you correctly stated there isn't a way to increase the quantity via our account status.
