It is one of my very favorites. And hope you saw Victoria's review of the Borneo on Bois de Jasmin, it sounds wonderful and I am waiting anxiously for a sample. I definitely don't qualify as a patch hag, but am hopeful anyway! K, Glad you got the ISM in the end. It is one of my very favorites.

My colleague/friend who spends his summers at Oxford and who hoofed back my Fumerie Turque last summer and my Iris Silver Mist this summer (yes, it arrived safely!) has his assignment set for next summer. It's just as well that I can't wear any of my perfumes right now due to hormonal reasons; makes the waiting a bit easier. :-) As the original MUA Patch Hag (and coiner of that term), I cannot wait for my own bottle of Borneo 1834.

If not, they should have! And for that matter, I am quite hurt that they didn't send one to me ;-) Did they send you a wax sample of the Borneo, J? If not, they should have!

When I finally went to the Salons and tried another couple of scents it was still Fleurs d'Oranger I ended up with.

All the same, I should think that if you love a wax sample, you are likely to love the perfume.

Apparently Sharapova is now the top ranked female tennis player. Of course, I had never heard of her until the perfume, but that is because I don't watch tennis. I have no idea how widely known she is. LOL!

Diddy making a perfume...*lol* Borneo 1834 sounds lovely & perfect for winter. Would love to have a wax sample - I just received the other wax samples from the exclusive line. If you now them, I´d like to hear your opinion: Do they give an appropiate "image" of the "real" fragrances? R, P. Diddy making a perfume…*lol*

Oh come on! Is it some unique type of grass that doesn't grow anywhere else? And I am happy for Sharapova and all, but I had no idea she was such a celebrity... And as for P. Diddy's perfume...Mediterranean air accord? Sometimes the pretentiousness is beyond laughable. I feel like this comment should be on Slap of the Day instead of here :-) D-list celebrity perfumes and pretentious names of notes - slap! Wimbledon grass accord? Oh come on!

There are not many fragrances that I would pay that much for!!! K, it will be very interesting to see if a rap artist can make it in the high end fragrance market.
