Can somebody answer this? ^

No to liquids. Yes to fragile.

Actually I think I am sending it to you: notrekip->parker->mytailorisrich->ezlau.

Or did the order get changed?

ezlau · May 18, 2011

I think in 2-3 posts after that initial shipment route, it was actually changed to notre->me->parker->mytailor etc. Please confirm this OP.

You're right. I missed that update.

Mark as non-flammable, something harmless like 'cosmetics samples' or something. insurance to $100 I think is standard, try to get a tracking number unless it's way more expensive. tell them it's fragile, but do NOT say cologne since it's flammable and therefore banned.

Yep, the order got switched. It made more sense to jump into the USA from Edmonton to Wyoming then over to the west coast, also since wyoming would mess up the route later. lastly it gives mytailorisrich more time to get back from vacation before the box arrives.

Thanks for clarifying. I asked that because I tried mailing perfume to my ex once and once I told them its perfume they just handed the box straight back to me

Then I said, well actually its some body cream =D Managed to get them to mail it.

Master-Classter · May 25, 2011

ezlau is having some trouble with receiving packages, so the box will go from Notreknip to Parker

Hey guys, I'll be going to London, Berlin, and Geneva (among other places), does anyone know any good fragrance shops or boutiques to get samples? I'd be more than happy to pick some up and bring them back in time for my leg of the swap box.

Notreknip · May 27, 2011

The box is in the mail (Canada to US); it cost a pretty penny to ship but it was worth it. Everyone cross fingers that it makes a safe journey over the imaginary line of the 49th.

Oh, and, the box is unbelievably full. Expect taking 4-5 hours (cumulative) to sit down and go through it all. Nice job Master-Classter - really amazing organization!

I forgot about this thread... excited for it to get to me

HgaleK · May 30, 2011

I have at least 12 Creed samples, but it should be closer to 15-20 by the time it gets to me. Does anyone have any specific requests?

Currently:
2x Silver Mountain Water
1x Royal Water
1x Zeste Mandarine Pamplemousse
2x Aventus
1x Green Irish Tweed
1x Original Santal
1x Himalaya
1x Tabarome

1x Original Vetiver
1x Unknown (currently in my GF's purse)

I'm pretty sure that I have at least 4 more chilling at my place in Austin, and may be able schmooze the lady at Saks (the people at Neiman are pretty tight fisted with the Creed) for several samples if we're short anything that some particularly wants to try.

royal water, original santal and tabarome please
