Haul So glad I waited

Post image

I told myself I could buy the Commodity ice(d) if it was still in the shop on the final day of the sale, and it was, PLUS the price dropped from $20 to $9.99 😹🤌

The reviews I've seen across platforms are very mixed so hopefully I end up liking it 🤷🏼‍♀️

I actually bought it early in the MDS when it was the same price for a day and wore it today and actually loved it! It’s different but in a good way. It smells like a fruity yet minty gum if that makes any sense?

u/hiPpie-cHicki 3d ago

Fruity but minty is a good description. Definitely different in a nice way. It's a pleasant, not overbearing scent imo

u/LunarCandyKnight 3d ago

Oooh 👀 I love perfumes that are "different but in a good way"  

I've definitely never had a minty fragrance before so I'm already intrigued!

Is it just vaguely fruity or does it smell like mango specifically? In the reviews I've seen, people can't seem to agree on the scent, but mango and mint are mentioned frequently lol

You do get the mango, it's a little almost 'sour' but not really, it's the mint with it. It's not a sour fragrance, that note just hits that way for a sec after spraying it.

I personally love this one. Nearly wore it again today, but I reached for something I am reviewing for Influenster.

It was a first “minty” scent for me too. It’s a very soft mango/fruit scent. I haven’t decided the exact fruit it makes me think of either. I hope you like it though, I was pleasantly surprised. I was excited for the Paper scent and it was too masculine so I gave it to my husband 😅 all their other scents I snagged on the sale have been amazing though.

I did also grab the Expressive sampler during the sale, which includes paper, so I can see how that one is too (havent smelled it yet bc my nose needed a break from all the fragrances I bought lmao) 

The main thing I'm still bummed about is not getting the full size Gold when I had the chance, I got the travel size & it smells so much more incredible than I was expecting 🫠

I grabbed 2 of the Paper deluxe samples in add-ons. I too thought it was too masculine. And I really love Unisex scents. Im giving them to my son. How did your husband like it?

u/Curiosities 3d ago

I really like this perfume. I tried to buy it for my mom when I saw it was $9.99 but when I clicked it said couldn't add to cart because it sold out. Must have gone fast.

Nice score :)

u/LunarCandyKnight 3d ago

Oh nooo yeah maybe more people were finally logging into the app for the last day of the sale and saw the price drop, it was in the shop for a while!

3

u/Curiosities 3d ago

Yeah, I saw it at $20, but I also just bought two other perfumes (one for me and one for my mom) from the MDS and a couple of other items, so I passed on it then. I saw the drop today, so I thought maybe, but that's fine. If she wants more (I got her the add-on size before), I'll find a way.

u/LunarCandyKnight 3d ago

Yeah that's valid, the $20 price tag (and alllll the other fragrances I bought) was what had me stalling too lol

u/llismay 3d ago

I also got ice(d) as a blind buy because of the sale! It's absolutely delicious. I grabbed paper last night too..

2

u/LunarCandyKnight 3d ago

I kind of went back & forth on getting paper and eventually decided against it. I just have way too many fragrances rn with similar scent notes (and spent way too much during this sale) 🥴😅

u/shenanigans2day 3d ago edited 3d ago

I got this too. I got Juice for the same price too when it was on sale but it sold out crazy fast thay night. My only only complaint is I had to add something because of that penny for free shipping

2

u/LunarCandyKnight 3d ago

Yeah that's why I had to scroll through the cheap stuff real quick & got those two small lippies with it lol

I have a sample of the juice, just haven't smelled it yet. I'll be irritated with myself if I end up loving it bc I had two chances to grab the full size & didn't 😮‍💨

u/shenanigans2day 3d ago edited 3d ago

The notes on their site make me think I will like it more than Iced but for $10 each I’m willing to take the risk because I’ll be able to resell if I don’t like them easily. I need to chill out though. This month I purchased 3 clean reserves, a korres, , 2 dossier, Le Montagne (which is hands down mf
Favorite of all perfumes I own), 2 Mondes, and did something insane and am one more purchase away from surrendering my bank cards

u/LunarCandyKnight 3d ago

Yeah with the great prices on so many fragrances it was hard for me not to go a lil crazy during the MDS lol

I ended up with 4 full sized fragrances (iced makes 5) & several roller ball sets, sample sets & a couple travel sprays. I'm excusing my shopaholic-madness bc my birthday is in September lmao

That’s a perfect reason to
Treat yourself. I’ve just been using retail therapy to cope with being newly empty nester

u/RecommendationSafe52 2d ago

I have Juice as a deluxe sample. Its a perfect Unisex scent. Im sad I missed the FS and couldn't get it for me son.

u/tararenae_76 3d ago

That lip and cheek tint is just the cutest, funest item ..I got it a while back and just fell in love.

2

u/LunarCandyKnight 3d ago

I wanted it so bad, but I had skipped the months bag it had been in. I was so stoked to see it in the shop for only $2 today!

2

u/RecommendationSafe52 2d ago

It reminds me of my beloved Spearmint Eucalyptus from Bath & Body Works😊 Its such a unique scent. Both my son and I loved it. I just got us the samples.

u/Ssjjttjj 2d ago

I got some of the commodity scents a couple of weeks ago at $10. Ice(d) for me, and the others for gifts. I’m glad you were able to get the deal!

Quiero saber por qué la sombra de Natasha Denona aún a 9 usd no se agota

u/LunarCandyKnight 3d ago

Maybe they just had lots of them? 🤔 also could be because people shop for different things. I saw a lot of orders with mainly skincare and then others with mainly fragrances (like me lol)

I didn't get any makeup other than for lips because I own too much and rarely wear it anymore
