If Tea For Two had been anywhere near as successful as No 5, there's no way L'Artisan would've dropped it. Sadly, TFT hasn't been a big seller for them of late, unlike Nuit De Tubereuse and the perennially popular Mure & Musc and Chasse Aux Papillons.<br /><br />Thank goodness Persolaisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04192014353722036319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2738735825185930519.post-17638971873118768842013-02-08T19:01:00.993+00:002013-02-08T19:01:00.993+00:00Hi, Kev.

It's rather like Chanel deciding that, y'know, that No. 5 thing has been around a long time and surely it's time for something else to occupy its space on the shelves. What the bleep are they thinking?!<br /><br />Ah, well. As long as it doesn't decay, my bottle is probably a lifetime's worth; given the size of my collection, I doubt that I'Marthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06115821731964909442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2738735825185930519.post-57402512185434850802013-02-07T20:43:07.277+00:002013-02-07T20:43:07.277+00:00I had it a few years ago and never smelled anythin...I had it a few years ago and never smelled anything like tea in it, just pipe tabacco, incense and ash.

I can't speak...Annie, thanks for your comment.<br /><br />I can't speak for L'Artisan, but I guess they need to find some kind of balance between keeping their total number of scents manageable, retaining a few favourites and, of course, making a profit. It's inevitable that every now and then, a few beloved creations have to go. And this isn't a new development.

I'd wandered into the shop in Covent Garden and the lovely sales assistant recommended it when I said I liked tea notes. It was love at first sniff. Why, why must they discontinue it...?Anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15941917503687179585noreply@blogger.com
