Went to Peony Melbourne to buy Marc-Antoine Barrois Tilia as a birthday gift for myself. It's the only store that had it in stock so had to go there physically to try it first before buying it.

However, the whole experience was completely ruined by the lady who works there. Rude, judgmental, and overall not a good customer service. Everything I did from spraying to tester strips to smelling fragrances, she was keeping an eye on me. Was even told I was doing it incorrectly and to let her spray all the ones I want moving forward.

Did end up buying Tilia as I loved it but will not be going back there because of her. Compared to Libertine Parfumerie and Connection Parfumerie who had excellent customer service, Peony Melbourne is the complete opposite.

Should have read the reviews on Google as well before going so that my expectations for a great customer service would have been dialled down a bit.

As per title. I've got Musc Ravageur on the way and also eyeing Tonka Hysteria. I'm unsure whether they are similar and a bit redundant to have both.

I want a warm spicy vanilla fragrance that's not Nishane Ani or PDM Althair.

Any other recommendations are welcome.

I'm currently in the vanilla phase and looking for a warm spicy vanilla. I've smelled Althair and Ani. Both are great but want to find other options out there. Please share your recommendations and thoughts to me.

Currently testing Legacy and want to find out how close it gets to Althair (which I do not have).

Shopback is doing 25% cashback (capped at $125, ends at 10PM tonight) on beauty products from David Jones. Can someone confirm that it works for fragrances and whether it works for items on sale?

Thinking of getting either one. I've smelled Ani and Ani X and I like it. Haven't smelled Electimuss Imperium but I kinda want to get it because I like the Aventus DNA as well.

What are your thoughts and comments? Help me decide.
