New for me NEST...............Did you buy

DowntonAbbey · ‎03-09-2010

last night you could get trial sizes for $36 of these expensive fragrances and so I caved in..........ugh I have to stop spending.........I lost so much this year but when I loose I for some reason get more in debt. I guess because I lost so much I feel like I deserve it and will be paying on it for years. How stupid can you get.? Not much more but they made the presetnation so yummy. I have got to sta away from the Q. SO WHO GOT NEST AND have you tried them before if so what fragrance do you love?

No. Tempting, but I've learned not to buy fragrances without smelling them in person and trying one on for a few hours, first. I'm too sensitive and too many things give me a headache. Sometimes I'll love the scent, but get a headache 10 minutes after putting it on. Better to wear it around for a few hours before I spend any money.

I agree. And I like to use use up my older scents before purchasing new ones.

I agree about fragrance....try before you buy. Can smell so different in the bottle and on you. The lady who was on last night...last name was Slatkin. Does anyone know if she is related to the Slatkin who used to be from Bath & Body Works?. Just wondering.

OP...you are the type of customer QVC drools over. Not going to lecture, because everyone deserves a treat once in a while. Make a New Year's resolution that if you don't absolutely need it, don't buy it.

Yes, she's married to Harry Slatkin, the founder of Slatkin & Co..

I was tempted but I resisted.

I like the lady that presents this fragrance.

As it is I have more perfume than I'll ever use. (and find I limit wearing perfume in closed in events) Occasionally I'll pick some newer samples but my buying days are over.

I saw these on the base and since the host went on and on about them, I tried them. I only liked le fleur or something like that. The rest I did not like. That one I didn't either after awhile. It smells like men's cologne. Not sure why you say they are expensive, they weren't. Even in regular stores they are not high priced. Hope you like em.

It's hard for me to imagine being able to purchase scents without being able to know what they smell like! But then I'm pretty sensitive to scents. I can ONLY do scents that are light and fresh. For that reason, I pretty much exclusively use L'Occitane Verbena. It's lovely.

Anything that is heavy, floral, musky, and heavy (especially heavy!) makes this chicken wheeze.
