I agree, nothing else struck me as  a must have. Its so much prettier in person.
The collection has finally reached my country. From what I've seen, you're right, there's nothing to die for exc. This and maybe some polishes. I definitely prefer the Chanel, although I'd love to try the new capture serum

Here's Celeste in action. I had a bit of irritation around my left eye, so the "crepeiness" you see is due to that, not the shadow. I find the shadow is really smooth.

Thanks ladies! The lipstick is Guerlain Rouge Automatique "Liu", one of my very favourite reds ever. Along with about a hundred others, but still a favourite.

I have a question for you girls. I don't think this is the right section, I should be looking at the Perfumery one, but I don't see a thread for Dior there. My question is, your opinions on the new reformulations of Miss Dior. No, this isn't about the reformulation business (what a dead beaten horse), I'm interested in the fragance itself right now.

I like the new version a lot. I was torn between Le Parfum and Eau de Parfum, they are similar although different (ha! does that make sense?). Le Parfum was stronger and I preferred it, but the samples gave me headaches. So I ended up buying Eau de Parfum. The samples gave me longevity on the skin, the smell was there the next day... but the bottle did not give that to me. I am disappointed. It's a lovely smell, but I want it to last longer. I am considering risking buying Le Parfum, maybe the samples are formulated different (due to the eau de parfum case, i think so), so I won't have headaches.

I checked the internet for reviews, but mostly people seem to either complain about the reformulation instead of giving a review on what the product really is, or then its professional reviews by sites interested in selling the fragrance and that doesn't interest me. So, anyone have the two? Reviews on one or the other regarding longevity and "headaches"? Or do you know where I can get them? I've checked other sites (like fragrantica - can i say this? i'm not sure, i'm sorry if i can't) but again they seem more interested in complaining or giving odd reviews about it.

I apologise if this post annoys someone due to being posted in the "wrong" section.

I can answer since I have been working in the fragrance department for a while. New Miss dior edp is awful. Not the scent but staying power, it's so watered down, just terrible what they did to it... Le parfum is good, it's much sweeter than edp but it stays on longer and has better quality.

I saw the Transat Edition today. Sun Deck (564) is very warm with mostly shimmery golden and bronze colors. Atlantique (344) on the other hand is quite cold with very strong and vivid blues and a single terracotta. There're two new single eyeshadows in the same color theme as the quints (both very beautiful) and four new Addict lipsticks - a true red, a tender pink, a coral and a very sheer gold. There's a rather pale golden bronzer too.

Are the bronzy and golden colors same-old same-old or are they less dupeable?
If so, I might have to get everything.

Lasting power of eau de parfum is terrible. The parfum did smell sweeter to me but I don't own that one and it's a lot more expensive but I guess you wouldn't need to use as much! I'd suggest trying the parfum on your skin eveey time youre near a tester in a depapartment store!

The new Corail Bagatelle blush smells incredibly divine! Anyone know what it is? I normally don't want scented makeup but I loved this scent as much as I do the Chanel blush scent.
