First, a big thank you to all who participated yesterday. This is great!
So this is day two of the advent calendar. And after yesterday’s frenetic and many comments, I come up with a little question.
Your comment counts under all circumstances. And -if picked randomly of course!- you will win a sample of the “une rose chyprĂ©e”. But if you answer the question correctly… then you can win additionally a sample discovery set. Again: One winner takes it all…
Thus, here is the question: L’air du dĂ©sert has a little bit of a flower line in its heart. Is it built around:
a) Jasmine absolute from Egypt? or
b) Lavender absolute from Bulgaria? or
c) Mimosa absolute from India?
December 2nd, 2008 at 6:40 am
I love it.. I feel like I am on a game show. But I will have to go with A. Jasmine absolute from Egypt of course. And a lovely one at that. Happy 2nd day of Advent!
December 2nd, 2008 at 6:41 am
Another day, another chance at winning…
The une rose chypree sounds rather interesting, I’m a big fan of rose fragrances.
Answer to question a)LDDM has Jasmine absolute from Egypt
December 2nd, 2008 at 7:00 am
Not to echo what has already been said, but it’s a) jasmine absolute from Egypt. (FWIW, LADDM was my SOTD today and, more than twelve hours later, it still smells wonderful…a real work of art this one!)
December 2nd, 2008 at 7:14 am
That’s the jasmine from Egypt, I guess. Yesterday’s response to your draw was indeed very impressive. At the same time the chances to score a hit for us diminishes. I’m sending you some of our heat to warm your winter days.
December 2nd, 2008 at 7:22 am
Answer:Jasmine from Egypt. This is so much fun!!! And, your new scent sounds lovely.
December 2nd, 2008 at 7:28 am
So, Andy - you make not just a fairy tale, but you also give it a twist with a question. You are full of surprises and so are your fragrances ;-)
I’ll choose the answer a - Jasmine ;-) and now it’s interesting to find out if I really can smell it there… exciting!
December 2nd, 2008 at 7:33 am
Thanks for this opportunity, and the very very light heart note is jasmine. These first two days are creating a lot of craving for L’air du desert!
December 2nd, 2008 at 7:38 am
Ahh.. back to checking this site every day rather than every two or three, and so much to do before the holidays. Darn you Andy, I cannot resist! (oh and Jasmine from Egypt)
December 2nd, 2008 at 7:38 am
well im going to say jasmine, not only because its logical and everyone else seems to know the answer, but because it is egyptian, and egypt is closer to morocco than bulgaria or india. :) i’d love to be entered in this drawing!
December 2nd, 2008 at 7:44 am
Game on! Jasmine it is :)
December 2nd, 2008 at 8:18 am
well, well, things are getting intersting :-)
It’s Jasmine (you should have made it slightly more difficult, Andy) ;-)
December 2nd, 2008 at 8:21 am
A flower that is part of my personal Holy Triad - jasmine.
This is fun, Andy! :)
December 2nd, 2008 at 8:24 am
L’air du désert is built around Jasmine absolute from Egypt
December 2nd, 2008 at 8:57 am
I would say jasmine absolute from Egypt :) A new day means a new chance!
December 2nd, 2008 at 9:06 am
Hi Andy!
The correct answer is jasmine absolute from Egypt. I really like your advent calendar!
December 2nd, 2008 at 9:07 am
I too will guess jasmine absolute from Egypt.
December 2nd, 2008 at 9:10 am
Andy, a few days ago you wrote about Jasmine in your room so maybe there was a hidden message then, so I too say “Jasmine absolute” ;-))
This is so nice Andy, I feel like a child again..
December 2nd, 2008 at 9:33 am
Jasmine :-)
December 2nd, 2008 at 9:45 am
Well well well :))) Everyone says truth! So i will also say Egyptian jasmine absolute too! : ))) Hehehe :)))
December 2nd, 2008 at 9:47 am
Hello! L’air du desert features jasmin for sure - I don’t know if it’s Jasmin absolute from Egypt - but that would be my guess. Hope I’m increasing my chances to that marvelous sample discovery set!
This sample draw is just so enjoyable! Thank you Andy!
December 2nd, 2008 at 9:50 am
hehehehe… just a quicky: Yes, Konstantin…. tomorrow we make it more difficult! But we do not want to be too fast and scare folks, right!?
Thank you to all of you who participate. This is so much fun for me, too.
Finally….are you sure about the Jasmine? ;-)
December 2nd, 2008 at 9:55 am
Hi Andy!
Can’t believe it’s that time of year again…
L’air is one of my all time favorites, and it has Egyptian Jasmine in it! Or at least it smells like it does!
Lavender is in your Reverie au Jardin, yes? Also one I wear a lot!
December 2nd, 2008 at 9:56 am
Hi Andy! your rose chyprée sound intriguing! I hope I get my answer right: Jasmin absolute from Egypt?
I’m cheating a bit because my nose didn’t get the jasmin note… I did grasp (and love) the maroccan atmosphere though, filled with balsams, resins and amber!
December 2nd, 2008 at 10:06 am
The answer is … a) I’m wearing ‘L’air’ right now. In fact, since my bottle arrived in the post I’ve been wearing nothing else! I absolutely love this stuff - and get loads of compliments on how nice I smell :-)
December 2nd, 2008 at 10:19 am
Hello! L’air du desert contains jasmin note. I really hope to win that wonderful sample discovery set! Thanks Andy for your lovely version of Advent Calendar!
December 2nd, 2008 at 10:46 am
The answer is (a) Jasmine absolute from Egypt. Good luck to everybody…
December 2nd, 2008 at 10:54 am
The jasmine of course. This is an awesome draw.
December 2nd, 2008 at 11:10 am
The second day - and again proceeds interesting game. I have already felt passion:-)
It Jasmine absolute.
Hugs to you and wishes of recover W.-factor.
December 2nd, 2008 at 11:14 am
I’m all for the jasmine absolute as well. Thanks for the fun!
December 2nd, 2008 at 11:33 am
Well, the support for Jasmine absolute looks rock (rose) solid!, but I checked the notes to be sure and came up with Jasmine too, as I expected I would…
I am of course deeply smitten with LDDM (and all its associations!). Yet I am also curious about the sampler set to see if there might be anything to top it, or whether LDDM is “der Oberhammer” of the range. Mal sehen….?
December 2nd, 2008 at 11:38 am
Jasmine from Egypt is indeed the flower in question Andy.
I love this interesting little advent idea… thanks Andy :)
December 2nd, 2008 at 12:38 pm
Ohhh, now it gets really interesting…a quiz show. Jasmine from Egypt. A very fun game.
December 2nd, 2008 at 12:49 pm
Yes, my guess is Jasmine too. Jasmine has that slightly dry, bitter feel that absolutely compliments the scent.
By the way, Mimosa is one of the ingredients if worn by a woman, I will absolutely swoon for her. ;)
December 2nd, 2008 at 12:56 pm
Again…an interesting day full of discoveries for me. I will not be able to comment all but a few….
Dear Gaz
Olalala… thus , Mimosa is like an swooning elixir for you ;-)
Hehehe, hi Kathryn, thank you for letting this nice German word drop: Oberhammer sounds cool!
Dear Vladimir
Hugs to you back from sniffing W.-factor :-)!
December 2nd, 2008 at 1:07 pm
It’s jasmin, I think.
December 2nd, 2008 at 1:18 pm
Hi.
I would guess the answer is jasmine absolut from Egypt. Can’t wait to smell it! Jsmine is one of my fave fragrance.
December 2nd, 2008 at 1:28 pm
hi
well, you do say on your website that there’s a hint of jasmine, so it must be that, an Egyptian one, of course, :-)
the important thing making a perfume that makes you travel in your mind, and that’s LDDM, thank’s again for creating it, let’s see how the rose chyprĂ©e turns out!
B.
December 2nd, 2008 at 1:28 pm
Jasmine From Egypt
“A prison cell, in which one waits, hopes - and is completely dependent on the fact that the door of freedom has to be opened from the outside, is not a bad picture of Advent”
Dietrich Bonhoeffer
December 2nd, 2008 at 1:33 pm
Hello andy, nice to meet you again!
The answer should be Jasmine absolute (mm I love it!).
bye
December 2nd, 2008 at 1:33 pm
Happy Day Two!
December 2nd, 2008 at 1:37 pm
It’s the jasmine, bien sur. So fun, Andy and congratulations Kim!
December 2nd, 2008 at 1:43 pm
I love roses and I adore chypres, so I look forward to your interpretation!
And it is definitely Jasmine absolute from Egypt that L’air du dĂ©sert’s heart is built around.
December 2nd, 2008 at 1:44 pm
Jasmine absolute.. Thank you for a fun (and at least for us…) rewarding christmas calendar :-)
December 2nd, 2008 at 1:46 pm
Jasmine from Egypt. You are a fun person aren’t you?! Thank you for the fun today.
December 2nd, 2008 at 2:17 pm
Jasmine!! Love it…Rose is lovely, Violet charming, Iris winning, but Jasmine is my favorite. I have a jasmine plant at home and when it blooms the scent drifts throughout the house…amazing. Happy Holidays to all. JE
December 2nd, 2008 at 2:26 pm
I’m going to say: Mimosa, just to be a pariah.
December 2nd, 2008 at 2:29 pm
A. Jasmine! Thanks for running this great contest!
December 2nd, 2008 at 2:33 pm
Another wonderful surprise for us to make the day festive!
I will go with the jasmine too.
December 2nd, 2008 at 2:35 pm
I like the question aspect — keeps it all fun! My answer is a) Jasmine absolute from Egypt.
You got me thinking yesterday about why we give up something during Lent but don’t do anything equivalent for Advent. I’ve decided to try your idea and do something kind for someone every day. It’s a wonderful way to get in the right frame of mind.
December 2nd, 2008 at 2:45 pm
Andy, I’m going with Jasmin, all the way! This is so much fun! Thank you for doing this.
Happy Holidays!
December 2nd, 2008 at 2:53 pm
I’m in.
As so many has stated before me, a) Jasmine absolute from Egypt is the answer.
December 2nd, 2008 at 2:59 pm
Hi Andy, I don’t really know the answer, but will guess Jasmine from Egypt. Thanks,
Debby
December 2nd, 2008 at 3:06 pm
The answer, of course, is A
December 2nd, 2008 at 3:06 pm
I would have to go with answer ‘a) Jasmin absolute from Egypt’, Andy. *scribbles in bubble with #2 pencil*
I’m entirely new to your line, but from all that I have researched I look forward to sampling; your scents sound incredibly well orchestrated.
Thank you so much for having an Advent contest; it’s my favorite time in the Catholic calendar- full of hope, and now fragrance! ;]
See you again tomorrow….
December 2nd, 2008 at 3:08 pm
It’s jasmine fom Egypt. Congtatulations Kim, you’ve won a beautiful fragrance.
December 2nd, 2008 at 3:27 pm
Jasmine absolute from Egypt…and it smells fabulous!
December 2nd, 2008 at 3:31 pm
Jasmine of course….but you never mentioned which kind of jasmine in your site….
is it a trick question?
So answer A. No need to send the discovery set, you know why…. :-)
kissy
just popped in to say hi
December 2nd, 2008 at 3:35 pm
Jasmine absolute! These little games make the holidays so fun. :)
December 2nd, 2008 at 3:36 pm
My guess is jasmine absolut from Egypt
December 2nd, 2008 at 3:37 pm
My pick is Jasmine absolute from Egypt. Thanks for the fun contest!
December 2nd, 2008 at 3:37 pm
Jasmine from Egypt. Such a wonderful companion, that fragrance. It keeps you good company all day.
December 2nd, 2008 at 3:37 pm
ha! a trick question! i searched your blog and in the comments section of the entry ‘this is the end my friend’ (where you talk about going to 100ml bottles of l’air deu desert strictly, no more 50 ml bottles) you list jasmine from egypt as well as lavender from bulgaria. but i’m guessing you would say that jasmine would be the floral note, and lavender a ‘herbal’ note as the answer to the question. but according to your notes both are in there, and lavender flowers sure have a wonderful smell….and the ‘feel’ of most of the scent to my nose has a lot of the duskiness of the lavender. meh, i just don’t trust me nose!
one way or the other it was so nice to find that list of notes in your beautiful scent. i was sniffing with my ma a few weeks ago and she thought it was gorgeous - high praise from a woman (my mother) with an exquisitely sensitive nose, to the point of pain at times! i’m a beginning sniffer, and it is provocative to compare lists of notes to what you’ve smelled in the garden, kitchen, etc. to a particular scent. thank you again!
December 2nd, 2008 at 3:37 pm
Yes, looks like jasmine absolute is the correct answer. Thanks, again, for entering me in Day 2!
December 2nd, 2008 at 3:39 pm
Jasmine, of course! Please enter me in today’s drawing.
December 2nd, 2008 at 3:46 pm
Cher Andy,
la rĂ©ponse est l’absolue de jasmin d’Egypte.
Comme je regrette d’avoir manquĂ© le concours d’hier. La chance de pouvoir gagner un flacon de mon nouveau parfum prĂ©fĂ©rĂ©, heureusement j’en ai encore… Mais bon je me rattrape aujourd’hui et je ne manquerai plus un seul jour de ce calendrier de l’avent.
Encore merci d’avoir crĂ©Ă© cette merveille et les autres.
A demain
Rebecca
December 2nd, 2008 at 3:49 pm
Dear Lunarose
oh.wow. You did a serious , serious analysis! Well…. well. now the question remains: Jasmine absolute or Lavender absolute. there are many forms of lavender (oil versus absolute)….(just giving you a hint…)
And dear Simone: No, no… no trick at all!
fragrant greetings to you!
Dear Lauren WB Vermette
Fragrant greetings to you and many thank you’s for your comment. Advent is my favorite time in the year too. I just wished it would be warmer and with more snow and less rain, but this is a contradiction I guess. I love the time of anticipation, of waiting, of hope.
Dear Eileen
This is wonderful! I am so happy that I could inspire you.This is just great
Dear Jean Poole Thank you for sharing this thought, these lines with us. Maybe one addition to this picture. “but even when the door opens. The step out of the cell we have to make ourselves. Fragrant greetings to you!
December 2nd, 2008 at 4:02 pm
jasmin! love it.
December 2nd, 2008 at 4:10 pm
Cher Andy,
la réponse est l’absolue de jasmin d’Egypte.
Comme Rebecca je regrette d’avoir manquĂ© le concours , d’ailleurs je la remercie de m’avoir parlĂ© de ce blog que je visiterais avec plaisir quotidiennement !
Et je ne manquerai plus un seul jour de ce calendrier de l’avent.
Encore merci d’avoir créé ces merveilleuses fragrances que je découvre avec plaisir.
A demain
December 2nd, 2008 at 4:11 pm
Greetings, Andy!
My answer? Jasmine absolute from Egypt - and a wonderful “take” on that beautiful flower! This is FUN! More quizzes, please!
December 2nd, 2008 at 4:16 pm
what fun! My answer is also Jasmine absolute from Egypt. The “from Egypt” part I would not have known, thank you for the teaching moments! LADDM is my favorite one of your scents, it is truly a masterpiece.
December 2nd, 2008 at 4:17 pm
ding!ding!ding! (a)- jasmine absolute from Egypt!
cheers Andy!
December 2nd, 2008 at 4:22 pm
(a) Jasmine absolute from Egypt. So many varieties of the flowering shrub, but this is a God-send for those of us who love it and look for it in fragrances.
Happy Tuesday!
December 2nd, 2008 at 4:35 pm
I guess I’ll say jasmine from egypt, also. . . Happy day 2!
December 2nd, 2008 at 4:38 pm
Jasmine it must be. (I looked it up on Luckyscent.)
I just got a sample of Lonestar Memories from The Perfumed Court; haven’t had a chance to try it yet (because I got so many other samples at the same time) but I have a feeling it’s going to be my kind of thing.
December 2nd, 2008 at 4:41 pm
Jasmine from Egypt. Love Marocain on a cold, rainy day.
December 2nd, 2008 at 4:47 pm
hello!this is such a good idea,thank you Mr.Tauer for this and your lovely creationL’AIR…It is just gorgeous and perfect.I will say the answer is a)jasmine,thank you again LOLITA.
December 2nd, 2008 at 4:54 pm
A sample set would make such a lovely early christmas present for me! Thank you for your fun contests and giveaways. The answer is A.) jasmine from egypt
December 2nd, 2008 at 4:58 pm
i should love to try all those samples.. so, i did my homework, and will say that the answer is the jasmine from egypt.
December 2nd, 2008 at 4:58 pm
Hi there everybody!! Now, isn’t this a great idea!!! :)
Just found the link to this over Now Smell This…as I’m german, my mother always had an “Adventskalender” at home…been some years now since I saw the last one!! Ok, I did love the chocolates, but perfume would be even better!!
Ummm..I’d say Jasmine too!
December 2nd, 2008 at 5:04 pm
a) Jasmine absolute from Egypt
Happy December 2nd!
December 2nd, 2008 at 5:04 pm
This is a delightful stop on the day’s path. I think that lavender would not fit into that composition and mimosa might get lost in it, so…Jasmine it is. Thanks for the fun!
December 2nd, 2008 at 5:13 pm
I’m guessing a) Jasmine absolute from Egypt.
And today’s holiday is the International Day for the Abolition of Slavery! Yay!
December 2nd, 2008 at 5:16 pm
Jasmine absolute from Egypt! Of course!
December 2nd, 2008 at 5:17 pm
Jasmine absolute!! What fun…though I did pout a little bit, since I happened to miss the first day, and I check in most days. I’m here, I’m here!! :) (The good news is, we started the advent calendars at home, so all is well.)
I love how industrious Lunarose has been…
December 2nd, 2008 at 5:19 pm
Great question, though honestly, I can’t imagine what you would do with mimosa. I love the powderiness, and the way it pairs with the leathery Cassie flower. But I can’t imagine you doing mimosa. But I’d love to smell the rose you are working on. It’s true, it’s very difficult as a note, but so is Orris as a dominant, and you did that incredibly. MJ
December 2nd, 2008 at 5:21 pm
I’m going to go with A - Jasmine absolute from Egypt
I love this Andy! Thanks for the holiday fun!
December 2nd, 2008 at 5:25 pm
It has to be the jasmine. I’ve just ordered a sample of l’air de desert so I can smell it for myself later in the week. Very much looking forward to it!
December 2nd, 2008 at 5:25 pm
Another day, another chance
answer:
a) Jasmine absolute from Egypt
December 2nd, 2008 at 5:33 pm
And the answer is… Jasmine absolute from Egypt! Beautifully done, by the way. LEDDM is my favourite from Andy :)
December 2nd, 2008 at 5:43 pm
I missed my chance yesterday, but today I’m in!
Love rose, love chypre, so I’ m very exited!
Oh and the answer is a) - I took a peek at your website, unfortunately never having smelled L’air du dĂ©sert marrocain…
December 2nd, 2008 at 5:43 pm
Only the second day of December, and already the month tries to shape its self in undulating waves of emotional highs and lows. Where yesterday was bright, today is darker. And then a breath of something comes through a most unlikely place, from the metal, plastic and waves of impossibility that now make a web across the world. It is a memory of twined rose and jasmine, delicate as a mirage. Ah yes, Jasmine, floating here from Egypt, by way of Europe and dreams, that flower which can quicken a woman’s blood. And even thus, diluted by memory and space, it is enough to set this day aright. Thank you.
December 2nd, 2008 at 5:51 pm
Although, like just about everyone else, I think it’s the jasmine, I’m going to say LAVENDER just to be different!
December 2nd, 2008 at 5:52 pm
Yes, the jasmine absolute from Egypt. I’m wearing L’air… today. As I am from the desert - Utah, it absolutely makes me feel at home every time I wear it. Thank you, Andy.
December 2nd, 2008 at 5:53 pm
My favourite floral note : jasmine!
December 2nd, 2008 at 5:56 pm
I’ll go with Jasmine!
December 2nd, 2008 at 5:59 pm
i’ve sampled l’air once at aedes, and jasmine really comes out on my skin, so i’m guessing it’s jasmine (crossing my fingers!). thanks :)
December 2nd, 2008 at 6:01 pm
Another try. This is fun!
Congratulations Kim!
December 2nd, 2008 at 6:06 pm
Opps… I forgot to answer the question.
Jamine absolute from Egypt.
December 2nd, 2008 at 6:08 pm
This feels a little bit like cheating because of the many responses, but I will also go with the Jasmine; Thanks!
December 2nd, 2008 at 6:11 pm
A) jasmine absolute
December 2nd, 2008 at 6:22 pm
Lavender, I love it: Wore it in Marroco last month :)
December 2nd, 2008 at 6:27 pm
I think it’s Jasmine…. Great idea for a competition!
December 2nd, 2008 at 6:38 pm
Jasmine absolut from Egypt. Mmm. The slim possibility of winning a favorite perfume keeps my heart leaping.
December 2nd, 2008 at 6:41 pm
Sure seems like it’s the jasmine, been too long since I’ve had it grace my wrists.
December 2nd, 2008 at 6:49 pm
Dear gentleman, the answer is A) jasmine!
Thank you for letting us share your world.
All the best!
December 2nd, 2008 at 6:52 pm
Jasmine: It’s unanimous. I go with the crowd.
December 2nd, 2008 at 7:04 pm
Happy Christmas Season,
Okay, I have never had the opportunity to try your scents, but, from what I’ve heard, this smells of labdanum. Like a dry wreath, burning a beautiful incense, yet I know you’ve envisioned the Marakkesh Desert. Hmmm…I know the consensus here is Jasmine Absolute, and you work with the finest materials, and Egyptian Jasmine is to die for…yet your remark about the different types of Lavender interest me. I’ll go with the Egyptian Jasmine Absolute because Jasmine is a new love.
I feel like I’m betraying my old friend Lavender and I hope you’ll share with us your opinion on whether or not these Absolutes are from the best location. Is there a Bulgarian Lavender ~ do you think it is the choicest? How about the Mimosa? Another question for you ~ what form do you think is the best for each of these? I know these are your opinion and that it can depend upon harvesting, different storms from year to year, but I’m just curious. Also, which of these can be aged and aged well?
I should probably only ask two questions the second day. :) O and one funny thing ~ your spam killer ~ I almost just put the equation in, rather thank follow the directions and add the numbers.
Thanks for the fun,
Lucy2
December 2nd, 2008 at 7:04 pm
Jasmin! Jasmin!
This is so much fun, Andy. I’ve never done an advent calendar before.
December 2nd, 2008 at 7:05 pm
Of course the heart of L’air du désert must come from the Land of The Pharaohs. The answer is the jasmine absolute from Egypt. Good luck to all.
December 2nd, 2008 at 7:07 pm
Oh, a quiz!
I’m going with jasmine, and I congratulate Kim on winning yesterday’s prize. L’air is exquisite.
December 2nd, 2008 at 7:07 pm
Jasmine is my favorite floral scent. i always buy a small star jasmine plant at the garden center each spring. it doesn’t last long in Minnesota.
December 2nd, 2008 at 7:12 pm
Jasmine it is!
I confess I do not “get” much flowery parts at all in LAdDM, but I love it nonetheless. I’m going rapidly through my sample, so I’m eyeing that sample set to hold me over until FB-day!
Wonderful idea for an advent, Andy.
December 2nd, 2008 at 7:34 pm
Love the new twist Andy! Um, let me think now…could the answer be Egyptian Jasmine?!?
I will be sampling Une Rose Chyprée whether I win a free sample or not.
Prosperity and peace blessings to all!
December 2nd, 2008 at 7:36 pm
Jasmine of Egypt is the answer. I had my first too days in my normal chocolate advent calendar.
December 2nd, 2008 at 8:06 pm
jasmine absolute, i believe…
December 2nd, 2008 at 8:25 pm
Jasmine absolute, DEFINTELY!!!
December 2nd, 2008 at 9:09 pm
a) Jasmine absolute from Egypt!
December 2nd, 2008 at 9:49 pm
Thank you so much for this little advent calender!
It must be Jasmine absolute.
December 2nd, 2008 at 10:32 pm
How fun! I believe the answer must be Jasmine absolute - but just in case (I’m a definite Libra) I would also vote for Mimosa from India.
December 2nd, 2008 at 10:52 pm
a) jasmine absolute from Egypt
December 2nd, 2008 at 11:00 pm
a) jasmine absolute from Egypt
December 2nd, 2008 at 11:03 pm
This sounds very tempting and I’ll try my luck. I believe there must be a hint of jasmine in “le dĂ©sert…”
December 2nd, 2008 at 11:23 pm
Oooh, it’s jasmine! :-) Thanks Andy!
December 2nd, 2008 at 11:43 pm
Jasmine, beautiful jasmine!!!
December 3rd, 2008 at 12:19 am
Jasmine absolute from Egypt!
December 3rd, 2008 at 12:49 am
Hi there. I love the questions. Keep them coming. The answer is obviously Jasmine from Egypt. In Arabic, Jasmin means ‘gift of God’
December 3rd, 2008 at 12:58 am
The answer is a. the Jasmine!
This is great! Very nice of you to have games for us.
December 3rd, 2008 at 12:59 am
Jasmine! Ok, I admit I cheated, by reading everyone elses answers first! But I do so love LadDM, so it MUST have jasmine, my favorite flower. Rose is my second fave, so please enter me in the drawing, darling Andy!
December 3rd, 2008 at 1:22 am
Count me in!!! Let’s try again! LDDM has jasmine absolute from Egypt….
December 3rd, 2008 at 1:47 am
It’s got to be Jasmine. What fun! I’ll get to sniff it for myself soon, when my order of L’air du desert marocain arrives in Australia. From all the fantastic reviews of it, I can’t wait.
December 3rd, 2008 at 2:04 am
It’s Jasmine !! :-)
December 3rd, 2008 at 2:19 am
So sad I didn’t win yesterday, now I will have to add L’air back onto my Christmas Wish List. I’m wearing a sample of Le Maroc pour Elle today for comfort and I feel better already.
Answer to today’s question must be Jasmine.
December 3rd, 2008 at 3:18 am
I would also put the answer to today’s question as Jasmine absolute from Egypt.
December 3rd, 2008 at 3:38 am
Jasmine of course. Please enter me again!
December 3rd, 2008 at 3:49 am
I would say jasmine modulated with some rose
December 3rd, 2008 at 4:22 am
Answer is Jasmine. Happy Day 2 of Advent.

Dear Jeudi
I thank you for putting l’air du dĂ©sert marocain on the list again. But -even if you can only win samples today- do not give up, please. There will come more bottles….
And a big thank you to you, Wayne! and fragrant greetings to Australia, the home of kangaroos that I love so much!
Dear Marietta
I fight the same fight here in Zurich these days…hoping I manage to bring my plant through long winter montsh!
Dear Lucy
I thank you soooo much. What a lovely, thoughtful, comment of yours and how poetic. I appreciate very much.
And to all of you whose comments I did not answer: Thank you and fragrant greetings. I have read them all!
