      My friend Joel totally scored on one of these sales this past spring. So jealous!

    But, what is a sample sale for perfumes/candles? I know what it is for shoes and clothes…

      I think this is just overstock/discontinued/repackaged…not really the same as a sample sale, but the term seems to be used very loosely these days.

    (First time posting.) I went to this on my lunch break just now and got the Myrrhe and Opopanax room sprays for $25 each……honestly this kind of stuff is fully half of why I moved to New York. God bless the sample sale.

      Lucky you! Was it packed?

        Having never been to such a thing before, it’s hard to gauge, but I have to say I expected it to be more so. Still, I waited in line to pay for about 15-20 minutes, so plenty packed for my taste.

        By the way, Robin, I’ve been reading this blog for ages and I wanted to say how much I love your straightforward style of reviewing. It’s refreshing to read writing that lacks the frothy sentimentality that most automatically turn to when discussing such a topic. So thanks for that.

        Nice to finally ‘talk’ to you!

        Also, I should thank you as well for inspiring my love of iris. My sample of 28 La Pausa made me know it was love…

          Thanks for the very kind words, and glad we share a love of iris!
