I was wondering if anyone noticed their bags having a certain distinct “smell” from Fashionphile? It isn’t foul or anything, it smells of baby wipes or some type of baby powder.
What’s weird is the smell is getting stronger the longer I use and air out the bag lol. I can smell it on the leather, interior, I wonder if it’s some sort of deodorizer they spray in the cage/vault? Almost all my bags from FP have had this smell, but this bag is by far the strongest. With my other bags the smell went away in about a week, but this is going on a month.
Yup. I just returned a bag that was listed in Excellent condition, and it actually looked pristine except for very faint scratches on the hardware. It came with everything a brand new bag would have if purchased from the boutique. But... the undisclosed scent. It was like someone sprayed perfume on it. It wasn't unpleasant, but too strong for my taste.
And now that it's been mentioned, I definitely think it was deodorizing wipes or something like that. Wasn't worth my time to try airing it out, so back it went.
