Poor man, he lost his laptop and Â£350. Always check the buyers/sellers ratings.

I thought the whole point of Paypal was that it is secure and that this couldn't happen. Maybe sending a cheque through the post is going to come back

Sounds ( smells?) nice.
Was it Body shop used to do a vanilla perfume and a white musk? Remember my sis used to mix the two to get a sort of musky vanilla

Sandra · Post by **Sandra** » 21 Feb 2007, 23:41

Just tried one of them, Bond No.9 West Side (rose and vanilla apparently) and way too expensive for me to buy a full bottle.... prices start at Â£84 for 50ml

Yes it was Body Shop. White Musk outsold all of their other perfumes put together. Dewberry was a distant second, indeed it got terminated much to many peoples surprise, as it was still a serious revenue generator.

I rember being very fond of the Dewberry range, wonder why they discontinued it

They must have brought Dewberry and perfume oils back cos you can buy it as perfume oil now. I liked it better than white musk. I didn't like fuzzy peach.

Must keep an eye open for the Dewberry oil, not an appetiseing name though, dewberry, always made me think of runny noses.
The white musk on it's own was, well, bland but one squirt of that and one of vanilla was nice. My fave at the moment ( ok only perfume ) is Lush's Karma

Dewberry makes me think of this

A dewlap is a flap of skin that hangs beneath the chin of an animal. More generally, the term refers to any pendulous mass of skin, such as a fold of loose skin on an elderly person's neck,

I think it was because Anita decided she didn't like.

Don't think Dewberry Perfume Oil was ever discontinued but I could be wrong.

So it was cancelled in spite of being amongst the best sellers because she didn't like the smell? Odd, thought the smell of money would be more attractive

But money = power. And when you've got too much of one you get capricious with the other.
