Great minds eh? :hi:

I just ordered it as mum is getting it as she told dad she wanted perfume as part of her pressie this year.

 

[boffy]

i wonder whta the new fragrance smells like?

 

[Ciociaria]

Oops! I know I said I wouldn't but I saw the easy pay option and couldn't resist. Have ordered the Amazing Grace option - my favourite. I'm down to one bottle of perfume at the moment - L'Occitane's Peony which I think is odourless (but my sister can smell on me). I like to be able to smell my fragrance throughout the day. Does anyone know what the new one smells like?

 

[Marzy]

Just gone for the Amazing Grace option,too.
Can't wait to try the new fragrance.

 

[Catkins]

Me too. Have gone for the Amazing Grace option. OH is getting it for me for Christmas. So glad about easy pays as really helps at this time of year!!

I got an email today "Love Philosophy? Get the next Today's Special Value early!".

I'm still not sure so I went to QVC US and read some of the reviews about Eternal Grace and they vary so much, from smelling like bug spray, citronella, to fresh, green and crisp.
It seems a bit like Marmite, love it or hate it. Many have said that the fragrance doesn't last long at all and others do. Everyone's body chemistry is different so the scent and it's staying power will vary from person to person anyway.

The presenter said that Citrus is the top note which fades quickly to floral, green, sandalwood and amber.

I watched this video (which is very irritating!) about Eternal Grace

You will be relieved to know that this fragrance is not suitable for nurses and teachers!

:grin:

 

[sheilaj]

I got the email too...sorts some of my gifts for christmas if I can bear to part lol

 

[VALM]

I got that email as well but don't think I'm going to bother unless I get a chance to smell the fragrance beforehand. I'm going to John Lewis on Thursday night. Anyone know if it's for sale there yet as it's not on their website?

My sister has mentioned that she would like a bottle of Amazing Grace for Christmas. I was toying with getting her this TSV for her gift but someone commented that it's not really getting her what she wants plus I'm running the risk of her not liking the new fragrance. On top of that she's not big on body lotion so I think this would be a real waste of money as a gift for her. I, on the other hand would use everything in there so maybe I could split it up by giving her the handwash, shower gel and then get her a bottle of perfume separately to go with it. Then again though, I wanted the Pure Grace option for myself. Nevermind Christmas is about giving not receiving!

Maybe I will sit tight on the day and see if there are any OTO's that I can grab!

I think the new fragrance is launching in the TSV and is not going to be available elsewhere till after that.

I went to John Lewis in Nottingham and they didn't have it.

Not happy that Postie didn't bring me a sample....take note QVC....samples should have gone out to everyone!

 

[Catkins]

I was lucky enough to receive a sample of the new Eternal Grace shower gel. I had a bit of a sniff of it convinced that I wouldn't like it as I really didn't like the last new fragrance Inner Grace when it came out.

I have to say that I was quite surprised as it was lovely. It's kind of like Amazing Grace with a hint of citrus. It's not harsh like Inner Grace but a very soft fragrance. I know it's only the shower gel so you probably don't get the full effect of a perfume but my first impressions are good.

Went to JL last night. They said that QVC have this as an exclusive and it won't be avaialblei to them until a year later! So if you want it grab it now. I still don't think I'm going to bother.

Did get a free gift with two purchases of Philosophy at JL last night - small tub of Hope in a jar, Philosophy gift bag and a lovely make up bag (not a big wow I know but nice to get something)

 

[Beketaten]

I got a sample sachet of the Eternal Grace 3-in-1 as well. I don't think I'll be buying the TSV though, have sooooo much perfume, shower and body stuff to get through.

 

[Boycie]

No sample for me. So no way will I be buying the TSV even if I want it. My principals will not allow it!

 

[fulhamphil]

Tried the sample in the bath this afternoon - quite nice, but I don't think I shall be buying :hi:

 

[loveheart]

I tried the sample but couldn't smell anything. Won't be buying the TSV.

 

[Tia]

I didn't get a sample and I won't be buying either. I was very disappointed wiht last christmas TSV as I really didn't like the Love Everlasting EDT and will not risk it again.

 

[Beading Belle]

I must remember to use the sample tomorrow!!
