I'm definitely not the best for this either. Never done it and not in a market with access to Creed. I occasionally make it to SF, but not often enough to be leading this. Definitely in for a split though.

for me, I'll be clear.... i'm not in any mood/position to be buying new frags right now. My list and note indicate that sometime in the next 2-3 months i might be interested in those ones, and even then I really do need to test it a couple of times since i've got some samples but haven't got round to using them yet even. So... I'm open to whoever (including me) leading the thing but I'm in Canada so it may not make sense, and I'm also waiting closer to 3 months since I literally have over 100 samples in front of me to work through.

I'll host the split but I have no interest in that particular fragrance. If you guys want to break me off a little bit for the work I'll do it no problem.

BTW - The Malle split is now closed. If anyone else is interested in it please PM me.

Next up: A split of CREED Bois du Portugal - CLOSED
creed-bois-du-portugal-perfume.jpg
A description from Creed Boutique: CREED Bois du Portugal
The word "bois" means "woods". The fragrant woods of Portugal inspired this luxuriously rich, warm and masculine blend.
Classification: Woody/Oriental
Characteristics: A rich, warm, mysterious scent, CREED Bois du Portugal is bursting with personality and power. Its intoxicating aroma charms you at once, then slowly invites you in to explore its hidden depths. Complex, alluring, soothing. Although it is beloved by men,CREED Bois du Portugal is also appealing to women who appreciate a rich fragrance.​
  • Top Notes: Bergamot​
  • Middle Notes: Lavender​
  • Base Notes: Cedar, sandalwood from Mysore, vetiver and ambergris​
-A quick note before we continue - I was asked to host this split and take care of the leg work as the person who was interested in doing it felt that some with more experience might be able to handle it better. I agreed, both to be nice and to help out this thread which needs a boost, but its quite a bit of time and work and I have no interest in this scent, so I'm not doing it for free. There will be an additional $5 on top of each split for my time and effort. If you have a problem with this I will be happy to ask for $10 instead. The 8.4oz (250ml) bottle costs $350 and this is going to be a 5-way split. Each portion will come in a glass 2oz atomizer bottle and will be shipped Priority mail in the US (International buyers will pay extra on top of the $6 for shipping). International buyers please notify me in your PM's. Costs on each portion will be $87 and breaks down to $70 for the juice + $12 for the bottle and shipping + $5 for me. Payments provided via Paypal gift only. PM me to be included in the sign up: 1.) fashion_newbie - payment received 2.) collingsnyc - payment received 3.) curt 2121 - payment received 4.) KObalto - payment received 5.) Notreknip - payment received

Sorry guys, I'm still just "considering" the above BdP. Somebody likely would be able to push me into it (i.e. if everyone was waiting on a #5), but for now I'll just spectate.
