Of course! I thought I would help fellow Polene enthusiasts since it's difficult for most of us to try them at the store. I treated my No. 2 with Apple guard since there are suede parts I also like to mention the weight on No. 1 since none of the reviews/YouTube videos mentioned it. Even though No. 1 is the most spacious of all three that I own, it's my least used one due to the heavier weight. But I do use it on the day that I need to carry more.

I have to agree it is a little heavy, but not so much that I don't carry it and I am an old person, lol.
I’ve been noticing some shoddy looking “Polene” bags popping up on eBay. For example:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Polene-Wom...172964?hash=item2f3fff83e4:g:sB8AAOSwKWVecAKl
Is this a fake? I’m not sure, since I don’t own a Sept Mini, but it just looks off to me...

Looks fake to me...this is the one it seems to be copying, I see differences in stitching, alignment and overall quality compared to the ebay version (which is listed as brand new and never worn, looks pretty tatty to me!)

Yeah, the quality looks terrible. Sure doesn’t take long for fakes to pop up when a brand becomes popular!
Hello. Just returned from Paris last week and wanted to share a few new purchases
This is the Numero Sept in Monochrome Gris Graine. Decided on this over the smooth leather for durability.

This is the Numero Sept Mini in Monochrome Blanc Graine. It’s a very light cream color and beautiful with gold hardware. Haven’t used any of these new bags yet which is why plastic still on hardware.
I also picked up this Numero Deux in Trio Noir. I was excited to find it in the boutique as I had been wanting this but wasn’t able to get it online. I believe they are not making any more Numero Deux. They boutique said this was the last one in Trio Noir in Paris.

After months of drooling, I finally got my Polene Numero Un Mini! I ordered it after the first full week at my new job... just before sh*t got real with the virus. I actually wasn't expecting to receive it until at least April, since the tracking didn't update until the day after the expected delivery date, but it arrived!!
My big question now is: Does anyone use a product to protect their Polene? I'm very worried about damaging the light gray leather!

To be honest, I haven’t sprayed my Polene (but it’s navy), but I love using Collonil Carbon Pro. It’s amazing stuff, and I’ve sprayed everything from Chanel to Gucci to Hermès. I line a large cardboard box with an old white towel, and do several light coats on all areas. Collonil dries quickly, but it’s stinky, so I spray outside, out of direct sunlight. Good luck, and enjoy your new Mini!
Nope...the bag doesn’t smell at all when it dries! I’ve never seen any negative effect on hardware or fabric (such as tweed), either. I do try to give large hardware a quick wipe-off after I spray, but it doesn’t seem to really matter.
