Help me clear out my perfume closet

What happens when this perfume obsessive inadvisedly watches Grey Gardens, looks around and starts getting panicky about the sheer amount of stuff she's managed to hoard? A summer perfume sale! So if you're interested in trying out any of these lovelies for practically zilch, without the bother of a fleabay auction, send me an email and I'll be happy to send you a package. No, I'm not giving up on my love of perfume, as my long silence has suggested. I'm just going through a fallow period, I expect. Most of the stuff I test lately has been misses, or I'm just exceptionally cranky. I will probably do a "missed-the-mark" review post soon, to catalogue the disappointments!

Just let me know if you want to make an offer. Sales are final. I can only ship within the U.S. The non-vintage stuff is all in great shape--I would never sell something that had turned. It's just lost the love from me! The vintage stuff is all in good shape, but I can't promise they are in perfect, not-a-topnote-missing shape. Missing topnotes are just the nature of vintage perfumes, in most cases. My email and paypal account name are both: quipus72 (at yahoo dot com).

You want pictures? You got 'em. See pics and more details of everything here!

Hey, I just sent you an email. Let me know if it doesn't come through shortly. I hope to take a few things off your hands ;-)

Aimée L'Ondée said...

Yup got it, thanks! I hope you enjoy them!

Crepe du Chene! Y! Rive Gauche, Magie Noir.

How do I e-mail you?

Aimée L'Ondée said...

Hi! I'm at quipus72 at yahoo.

Hi Aimee. If the Balenciaga isn't sold, can I put my order in? I would LOVE to own it. Just the thing I need at the moment to cure my ennui. Weird, isn't it, how so many of us seem to be in similar places right now? Fallow period, for sure. Can you imagine how wonderful it will be when we pick up that surprise bottle sometime soon and that passion comes flooding back in? I look forward to it.

Aimée L'Ondée said...

Oh no, Brian, I'm so sorry! I just sold it yesterday. I was just being neglectful and didn't update my posting yet. My bad. But I'll email you because I have another idea.

hello Aimee! My first venture through your blog, and have to say I had a similar reaction after I saw "grey gardens" (the documentary - I haven't seen the movie version yet)! The two Edies haunt me very often.
