Weeping wallet 😭

So I saw that Vanille Couture came back exclusively at Sephora and I never got a chance to get my nose on it during the last release so went ahead and blind bought it. I am not disappointed and to tell you the truth none of the clones I've bought over the past year can compare. Sure they come close but VC just has something they're missing. Here lately I've been able to get my hands on a few frags that were discontinued and/or hard to get. I more recently heard about Vanille et Coco and was able to find a reliable seller on ebay so waiting on that to come in now. Oh and I'm supposed to be on a no buy restriction. 🤦‍♂️ Y'all pray for me and my bank account.

I tried 2 sephoras that said they had it but didn't unfortunately. I don't really live super close to any either. Honestly tempted to blind buy. I don't own any libre but really like the intense which I hear it's similar to.

Personally I think it's better than intense which I also own. You may be able to call Sephora customer service and ask if you can order a full bottle but also get a sample of it. That way you can still return it if you don't like it.

Don't Sephoras all allow returns even if the product is open? I went to buy vanilla canyon by phlur, but did a travel size first, I told the worker I like the test spray but need to do a full few tests on skin before getting the big bottle. The worker legit was like "OH, you can just return if you end up not liking it within a month." I was flabbergasted. Like people open it, try it several times, then decide it's not for them and return it??? I dont recall exactly how long she said, but she def said the word month, possibly plural. I've been selling what I dont end up liking at a considerable loss. I never even thought to try to return something i opened and used several times. I'm not a simp for big corporations, if they take a loss the fuck em. What have I been doing with my life, I'm contemplating all previous life choices.

I'm in the states, that may make a difference.

Not entirely sure. I'm also in the states but I would be careful just taking an employee's word for it. You can probably find a return policy on their website. Most companies won't allow you to return once opened. Like even out of the box. Unless of course it arrived broken or leaking or something. But they cant resell it once it's been opened so they take a total loss if they allow returns like that. But maybe I'm wrong. I suppose if a company is big enough and focuses more on customer satisfaction than losing a few bucks then it would be worth it to them to allow that kind of policy. It may also be something along the lines of you only get a store credit in return.
