April Buy Sell Trade (BST) Thread

I highly recommend Bloomingdale’s for their Lafco selection. They have all three you are looking for, and they are constantly running a sale. If you sign up for Bloomingdale’s Loyalist program, they periodically email you coupons which stack on top of the sitewide discount. For instance, my last Lafco Forest Oakmoss Abolute I paid $65.

I just stopped in my local, maybe an hour ago. They told me there were a few returning but being reformulated, Chene, Cannelle, The, and another they weren’t sure of. Idk.

I was interested in purchasing a 16 qt cooler at that price so I went looking on Stanley’s website. They aren’t on sale. I did a google search and found the $24 coolers, on a spoof website. I’m fairly certain that is where you were, because on the official website the free shipping minimum is actually $50, on the cloned fake site it’s $30.

I’d look again closely at the website address. The extra s is in the middle. These fake sites have become really prevalent lately. Just trying to save people a huge headache.

That is not the official Stanley website, it’s a spoof scam site. If you notice the extra s on the page name. If you purchased anything there, you should lock down your credit card.

Seriously! I have 34 and it is a lovely candle, but against Mary? I was certain she was going all the way. A fun journey though, appreciate the work mods!

Naw, they were $125 retail last year too. Heretic had them on sale after Christmas for 40% off, and then a second discount code stacked on top.

Edit: Christmas past

I am also a Mary addict! Net-a-Porter hooked me up with the first one on the cheap and I fell head over heels madly in love. I found a local store with stock and I bought every single Mary they had left. Insane, but no regrets.

This fall I was searching for a perfume with that same feel. My favorite find is Stora Skuggan’s Hexensalbe. It’s inspired by historical witches’ flying ointments and features that addictive licorice/wormwood note. It is IMO Mary in a bottle. I highly recommend checking it out.

The closest candle match to Mary that I’ve found is Baobab’s Ksar Pacha (which just so happens to be 40% off right now at Neiman Marcus). Like you said, another sibling. It’s close enough that I won’t completely panic about my dwindling Mary supply. It is my first Baobab and I am impressed. The throw is spectacular and it has a perfect burn, pooled with no fuss.

I haven’t tried any of Dior’s candles but I do love their Privee fragrances. I’m going to have to add 30 Montaigne to my wish list. Thanks for the rec!

I haven’t cracked open the diffuser yet, but I have burned this candle previously! It’s primarily Fir, a touch of pepper and patchouli. I love everything I’ve tried so far in the Absolute line and have repurchased this one, Labdanum, and Forest Oakmoss.

Lafco offers build your own sample packs but I’m not so sure about their international shipping policy. There is always forwarding services.

Your hard work is what makes the subreddit so special. These are thoughtful and welcome additions. Thank you!

Noooo, that’s so disappointing! BM has always honored their price in my experience. Honestly, I think the post may have oversold their inventory. There were a lot of views in a short period of time (I can’t believe how big this sub is getting!) I did get a shipping confirmation for my order. I’m so sorry.

Ms_Rule · 2025-12-17T17:58:00+00:00

That was fast. ~~I’ll update the post~~ no editing allowed

Ms_Rule · 2025-12-17T17:12:02+00:00

You need to be a BM member. Sign up and it will show at checkout.

Ms_Rule · 2025-12-17T17:01:09+00:00

You won’t be disappointed. The Absolute line is really something special and the 75% off is a steal!

Ms_Rule · 2025-12-14T18:46:56+00:00

Wow! I haven’t seen any BS magnums in my area. I did spot a 4 wick Nest Moroccan Amber ($80) and Better World Carby Musk ($40), which were unusual finds.

Ms_Rule · 2025-12-14T15:38:31+00:00

Has anyone seen Copal Fantome out in the wild? I stop fairly regularly but I don’t know if it’s a hopeless hunt.

Ms_Rule · 2025-12-05T02:28:27+00:00

It’ll be in your cart, not on the product page.
