Another picture of my "precious":

Absinthe Sloane, sunbath in my garden


(didn't know which is the correct front when I took the photo but I thought that side was also looked great!)

I love the color of Absinthe when I first saw it in Singapore BV shop! I had the hesitation on the design since it only comes with Pyramid or Roma. I was so surprised when I saw it in Korea, so grab it immediately:! Bought it before the US amazing SALES so the price I paid was a bit steep (I may buy the Absinthe Pyramid since the price is unbeatable). Anyway, got it, love it ! It probably is the one & only in Singapore!

aaa_1188 > happy to share the information, the price is 30% cheaper than Singapore (after 7% VAT refund). I think their price is lower since the Korean Won was devaluated around 30-40% in this two years. I also saw the Ferro Sloane there, love it so much but chose the Absinthe.

Congratulations, yyyyy. I saw the absinthe in our local SG BV boutique too and it's dreamy! You've got a great deal at 30% cheaper. I'm sure this trip to Korea had been memorable for you.

Kassandra. > The color is olive green, fresh & catchy. It looks more stunning under the warm light than day light. Easy color to match, not too formal & can vitalize the dark color clothing.
