Re: Philosophy TSV - November 1, 2024

 

 

I like strong spicy sweet perfumes that last a while, but most are quite expensive, hundreds of dollars per bottle. One of my favorites is Bond No. 9., and also Creed. 

 

I bought two of these Philosophy sets, not just for the perfumes, but because the price is pretty good for four items. Perhaps I will give one whole set to a SIL. 

 

I have been looking at perfumes for holiday gifts, and many start at $40.00.

 

I like the idea of possibly breaking a set up and giving different components as gifts. Since there are a lot of women in my family, someone will like it and use it.

Strange, how falling in love emulsion has parabens the other emulsions don't say this. This is a big pass for me. Their perfumes lasts about a 1/2 hour they should last at least 4 hours for an EDP.

Two years ago there was a similar set, not exact but similar.  Right now I can't recall if it contained EDT or EDP, but I'm guessing EDT.  What I do remember is that I ordered multiple kits and ended up returning them because there was no scent.  

Does anymore remember if it was EDT or EDP?  

Since today's set has EDP, maybe the scent would be stronger and last longer.  


@JeanLouiseFinch That set had an EDP (I still have most of it left).  I got Pure Grace and I thought it had scent, but I know that is a common complaint about Philosophy these days.

Thank you for confirming that, @sueinsf.  Since I couldn't smell anything and returned mine, that cinches it for me today.

Hi!! @JeanLouiseFinch 🤗

Yes I had to look my order up in Order Status, like @sueinsf posted it was an EDP.

I also got my favorite, the Pure Grace set. Mine had plenty of scent for me! 🤗

Re: Philosophy TSV - November 1, 2024

I have been wearing Amazing Grace for years and this time around I am going to give Baby Grace a try. 
i was complaining the other day to my daughter how the scent isn't as strong as  it was and she said I can smell it on you and when my kids have been with you , they smell like you. She said I love it. That made me feel good. I guess I can't smell it on myself anymore.

I went with the auto delivery deal, but have had trouble with it being fulfilled for future deliveries. We will see. Fingers crossed!

Re: Philosophy TSV - November 1, 2024

I thought the same since sometimes I can't smell it on myself.   But I have had strangers say you smell nice.   

I ordered Baby Grace on AD Thinking i can change scent _ but with B Frugal offering such a high cash back thinking I should just order AG now

Re: Philosophy TSV - November 1, 2024

I ordered this TSV on A/D.  I missed out of the Pure Grace so went with the Baby Grace - hope I like it! I've always loved Amazing Grace, but once I went to a town meeting some guy insisted I smelled like a sugar cookie:  haven't worn it sinceWoman Frustrated.

 

Beforehand, I checked on Amazon to see if this was a good deal and found a 4oz tube of the Baby Grace going for $30.  

 

Just going by that alone imho this really is a good deal!
