    /cheapskate
    Any chance you could do Parcel Motel - Parcel Motel shipping, as it's quite a bit cheaper?
    No worries if it's hassle
    /cheapskate

    On the list.

    No to the PM I think - they expressly forbid liquids, plus there's an extra couple of 'steps' out of my hands in that it's collected the PM first, distributed, and then collected by the customer. Whereas ATM (well, the once I did it) I hand it personally to the courier sorting depot and it goes straight into distribution from there. I just feel safer that way! TBH, it wouldn't be a huge saving anyway as quite a bit of the shipping cost is for packing materials - I have to use a horrific amount of bubble wrap and also ship in boxes, not jiffy bags.

    OK, the demand for Aventus is obviously huge so let's make that reserve list an order list for a second decanter! Timescale will be a bit longer on this one as I'm wary of ordering over a grand's worth of stuff in my first order from a supplier so will get the first one out of the way first (when it's back in stock anyway) and then order the second. So a week or two extra - but I'll take the money later as well.

    One slot left folks (there was none, but someone deleted a post looking for a slot).

    Could I also be added to the reserve list for Terre D'Hermes too!?

    Also was just thinking about the decanting process where you mentioned you would have to decant squirt by squirt...would a small fine glass drill work, drill a small hole to decant, maybe use a fine filter to catch any glass dust...just a thought?

    Either way, awesome work!

    Not sure I'm gonna try that on such expensive juice! I've looked at a lot of online discussion on this, and it seems the vast majority simply spray from atomiser bottles - and I'm guessing there's a reason for this! It only affects the smaller Amouage bottle anyway - the others are all open neck (I hope they are anyway) which makes things much easier.

    Will I put you on the reserve list? Will probably do a third split down the line anyway.

    Max respect for Padraig Mor for going to the bother of sorting this :)

    In for a penny, in for a pound - I think I'll try the orange too, could you please put me down for it also Padraig?

    Jez... I got tied up with work and then tending to the young lad and missed out :-)

    Padraig, will you put me down on the reserve list for 2 x 50ml Aventus please.

    Cheers!

    Hi Padraig,
    Thanks for your hard work in organising this.
    I will take a dash of Atelier Cologne Orange Sanguine cologne absolute please as well as the previously advised.

    Last few requests added. Down to two slots available on the Orange Sanguine - and am awaiting confirmation by PM of one of those being taken. Once the Atelier finishes, will leave it at that for a little while (but will still take reserve list requests) as I don't want to overwhelm myself and take too long getting the juice out to folks. Will be back with more soon!


    Payment requests for Aventus #1, Amouage, Hermes #1 & #2 will go out over the weekend hopefully.

    Hi Padraig, I'll take the last Orange Sanguine slot if it's still there please. Also, can I go on the standby list for the CREED AVENTUS whenever it comes around again?
    Cheers!

    OK, that's all she wrote folks! Last 2 Orange Sanguine slots to capefear and MickH503. Will update OP tomorrow to note this. Reserves still being taken in case of non payers.

    Will get this lot sorted and be back soon with an expanded offering. .... Feel free to request anything specific.

    OK, OP updated with all requests - everything gone for the moment! Please check the lists to make sure I have you down correctly - I'm pretty sure I noted everything right, but if you're missing from a list you should be on let me know ASAP! No problem with going on a reserve list.

    If these go OK, I'll be back soon with a wider range of Creeds and Ateliers, and maybe more....

    Bugger, so busy at work the past few days and I missed this. I'm up for some Aventus on any current or future splits.

    Really appreciate the effort on this Padraig Mor. My own Aventus is gone with a few months so I've been using the Terre D'Hermes as my daily - my wife will be happy too as she was usually stung for birthdays/Christmas on the Aventus :D

    I was in Oman a couple of years ago and some of the locals were wearing this wonderful scent which I never found before I left - I was pointed to a perfume house by someone but still never came across the exact scent. This Amouage could be it

    Put you down for the Jubilation XXV if that's OK. PM me if something else takes your fancy.

    Put you on Aventus waitlist. Shouldn't be too long - just need to confirm everything OK with main supplier and catch up with all this lot!

    That wife is a keeper! Terre d'Hermes is a great daily though - perhaps the best of all for everyday use, but maybe that's because I can't afford to wear creed every day!

    Hopefully!
