Do you know what sort of discount, Donna?MB stores now have a recycle box, you bring back your empties and get a discount to buy a new one.
I like what MB call more masculine scents. Black pepper (although I like pink pepper too), Russian Leather, Blue Maquis, Coastal, Bizarre Brandy. Actually all of them Sorry, I'm no help at all.Funnily enough I’ve never bought MB, can’t say that about other brands though
what would you say are your favourite scents? Just wondering if some are more popular in case I finally give in.
That sea moss powder was lovely….That is what missed me off about MB, they just discontinue products with no warning. You go into a store, and it's gone and the SA will say oh that was discontinued. They now seem to put stuff they are discontinuing into bundles on QVC.
I loved the Sea Moss range, they did a powder version you put in the bath, and it just went no warning.
Sometimes they reintroduce products with a different name. Their hair care has been back loads of times, then ends up in TKMaxx. They have it back again, released a few months ago.
The girl said 10% I think, it might have been 15%?Do you know what sort of discount, Donna?
Didn’t that just change name to Orange & Bergamot? I don’t know as much about the history of MB as lots of others on here, but I’m sure I heard Jemma say this very recently. Could be wrong, though, as didn’t you say you found O&B disappointingly generic (as do I)?My fave was Japanese Orange and like Donna says, one minute it was in the shop the next, gone and I've never seen it anywhere else since ☹
No, they were definitely different Andi. Don't ask me about the different notes though because I wouldn't have a clue to be honest.Didn’t that just change name to Orange & Bergamot?

Sadly, as MrM said above, totally different smells - Japanese Orange was a much sharper, uplifting scent (yep, totally agree re O&B being very generic and flat) and one of the reasons why I loved it so much was cos it reminded me of these Japanese yuzu bath salts a friend once gifted to me (very similar to these) and which if I ever make it to Japan, will be stocking up on big time!Didn’t that just change name to Orange & Bergamot?

Yes, it was Naranji, smelled better too.No, they were definitely different Andi. Don't ask me about the different notes though because I wouldn't have a clue to be honest.
I think O&B was called Nerangi at one point though, but I could be wrong on that so don't take my word for it.
My favourite was Reviving Cempaka. God knows why they discontinued that one because it was blooming lovely.
The Orange& Bergamot is my personal favourite from MB. It has had a couple of name changes over the years. I think the Japanese orange scent was called something like Suma or Suma Ginseng? I never tried that one as I had so much MB in the house I wanted to use some up. By the time I wanted to buy a bottle it had been discontinued. I also love the pink pepper and eucalyptus. I still have quite a bit of the bath and shower products but would love the TSV to have some hand washes, I go through them by the bucket load. I flit back and forth between MB and L'Occitane, currently on Loccy gentle hand wash (the milky one) and really enjoying that.Didn’t that just change name to Orange & Bergamot?

I like Orange & Bergamot too. I think the dupes you can get are quite bland but the MB one has a slight spice in it which makes it stand out. I hadn’t used it for years until it popped up in a TSV or special offer and was pleased with it. They seem to be featuring it more these days.Funny, I bought the 500mls size of the O&B one last summer. Not something I would normally go for, but it was soft and fresh for the warmer weather.
