echo exactly what purselover said, i pined for menthe because i missed out on it... but now that i have bambou i am SO SMITTEN with my bag, it's the most perfect green to me, especially with GHW, that i can't even think of anything else :D



both are stunning greens though and i don't think you can go wrong... maybe think more about the type of leather it will be and which you would like more... and what other bags you have in your collection...


This will be my first green bag, ever! I am having such a hard time deciding is because I loooove chevre but I think I do love bamboo juse a tiny little more than menthe. Why can't they just make bamboo in chevre?!! Lol

If you love Chevre much more, then just get Menthe because IRL they are closer in color than photographs suggest (to me anyway)!
 
I was in the same dilemma as you! I went with Menthe in the end cause it was offered in Chevre and I figured this is the last time that I will be able to get a bag in Menthe. I put the swatches next to each other and Menthe seemed to be a little softer while Bamboo looked more sharp and bright. Since Bamboo is a current color, I figured I could get something else in Bamboo.


Echoing wenyihsu here..
I love love love both colors. But i love Bamboo a tiny bit more than menthe.
But i chose Chevre over Togo anyday..
So for me.. I would pick menthe over bamboo because menthe is oferred in chevre..

HTH..
 
The problem is I don't mind Togo at all either and I do have other chevre bags already lol. I know I am not making this any easier!!

Sounds like your heart wants the Bambou, so go for it!

To be honest, while I like both Chevre and Togo (firm togo, that is), I actually would choose to get Togo in a bright colored bag if I can. Why? Because many very nice bright colors have come in Chevre and not Togo (and I can cope with Epsom, but it's not my fave). I am thinking of Parme, Blue Azteque, Rose Tyrien, Rose Confetti, Soufre, etc. So actually if you love bright colors, you will probably end up with more Chevre bags than Togo anyway...(Personally I like to run errands / travel with Togo, and goto casual dinner with Chevre...)
