What color is that, your bag is beautiful!![]()
I agree about the colour! It’s the reason I bought the bag.
It is the seasonal colour tourterelle. My SA said seasonal colours are usually only around for 3 months or until they sell out.

What color is that, your bag is beautiful!![]()
Thanks, that is great info, I will see if I should do this procedure if one or two weeks later, my bag still have smell. Maybe I can adding another layer of paper towel inside newspaper to prevent possible transfer to reverse.Hi there. Just wanna share i had my mono PM a few months back too. Bag was great, but somehow the strap smells weird from first day it was delivered. I brushed it off and thought I was overreacting.. fast forward 2 months plus, strap still smells weird like some chemical awful stuff. Then lately I saw a video on YT (fashionably amy) who complained her OTG smells awful. Then it struck me I wasn’t overthinking, it could be the glazing or glue etc. here’s what I did, I researched and found wrapping fresh newspaper print on some leather items can help remove the odors. Safe without any use of chemicals/conditioners to remove the odor. I did that, wrapped the strap tightly in fresh newspaper print, taped it up around the sides so the leather “odor” can be fully absorbed. Left it like that for 2-3 days. Resist the temptation to peek, you need it to be fully wrapped up. Verdict: it worked! The strap smells so much better now. There’s still a faint lingering canvas leather smell like our usual LV products but not the overpowering chemical/ puke smell revolting odor. So you may want to try. But please take note mine was mono print so I wasn’t scared of the newspaper color transfer (if any), I’m not certain if the reverse may have possible color transfer. Proceed with caution.

Can you post a picture of the leather under the flap? Mine has a crease in the leather and I am not sure if that is normal.Rejoining this club with my newest beauty
OK, I have been asking around for friends' opinions, doing research on this forum, now I think I will return the reverse one, since it's coming close to 30days . I hope I won't regret. Farewell reverse mono!I got the red one a couple of years ago in London airport, but really wanted canvas version, and then all of sudden I got both monogram and reversed mono online last month. Now the question is, shall I keep both ? I tend to like the monogram more than the reverse mono.... both came in great condition, no drama, fortunately. I do feel the reverse one is slightly better quality. I have been struggling on whether I should return the reverse mono or not.... Please help!
just my opinion, the reverse looks more beautiful than the mono. The front print are more symmetrical. The mono has a crease on the flap. All in all the reverse is such a gorgeous piece.OK, I have been asking around for friends' opinions, doing research on this forum, now I think I will return the reverse one, since it's coming close to 30days .

Yes I do agree that the reverse one is better made. But somehow the color combination didn't seem to work that well with my normal outfit, compared to the mono one....just my opinion, the reverse looks more beautiful than the mono.

I really like your perspective despite my preference for the reversed. It just shows that these items are personal and that you have the final say.Yes I do agree that the reverse one is better made.

Your reverse PM looks great! The print is so visible, may I ask where this one was made? Is it made in France?I got the red one a couple of years ago in London airport, but really wanted canvas version, and then all of sudden I got both monogram and reversed mono online last month.
