Giving Portrait of a Lady another try (my original, unopened bottle had a sample vial, and after I made the exchange, the sales assistant very nicely said I can keep the vial). Strangely, I can appreciate POAL much more, in fact the incense smell which I had problems with is now growing on me. So indecisive!

POAL took several tries for me too. The first time I wore it I felt like changing my outfit, I could not stand it

Izia by Sisley

I received a perfume delivery today and the bottle was incredibly hot due to the heat wave. Has anyone experienced a change in the scent or quality of the perfume in these kinds of circumstances? I hope that the heat didn't damage the perfume. :frown:

I haven't ordered any perfume this summer (I have decided to go on a perfume no-buy after spending the last few weeks reorganizing my collection, and acknowledging that I just have too many bottles.) However, I have received bottles during other years when the bottle was very warm after delivery. I have not had any issues with those perfumes. If I were to guess, I would say that a one-time exposure to warm weather is not so much of an issue. I think that daily and constant exposure to hot lights or warm sunshine over a longer period of time, like storing near a sunny window all the time is more likely to cause issues. Just make sure to store it in a cool place.

Scent of the day: Cartier So Pretty.

Thank you, I'm glad to hear that. I have never received a bottle of perfume that was actually hot. Also since it was a more expensive perfume, I was worried. From now on, to be on the safe side, I won't be ordering during the summer.

I thought I had enough perfume and wasn't going to buy this summer too, but I caved in.
