just in case any of the newer members were un-aware we had a sample club set up with Paul from Connaught on CONUK.

as far as i know it's still available and a great way to try before you buy, i know as i got nearly everything :roll:

check it out

I got some samlpes from Paul via that link only a week or two ago so it is still active. It is s fantastic low cost way to try a few scents and the bottles are very handy to reuse for any time away from home.

+1, some nice stuff, I'm still working my way through the 6 I got.
 
Been looking to try the two flavours of Floid, Musgo Real, Taylors Original #74 and a couple of D R Harris colognes.

Perfect.
 
I have also changed the name to the TSR Decant club, hopefully that's ok.

There are quite a few international members here so I have added some more countries to the list, If I have missed any EU countries let me know.
 
A Big thumbs up for this service from me. Got them through CONUK (which i seem to now NOT be a member of :eek: ) and were really useful as a way to test out ones you might like and are a great size for travelling too!

reminds me i need some more Aqua Vela :D
 
Just received my samples from Paul at the TSR Decant Club (Thanks Paul!). The sample bottles were bigger than I expected, and the cream samples are a decent size too. It's a great way of trying new things without having to shell out a heap of cash, plus Paul's a really decent guy to deal with.

(Taylor's Sandalwood is smelling pretty good at the moment...)
 
Smellies: Floid Blue (not bad, not great), Taylor's Shaving Shop (pretty much the same as Mr Taylor to my schnose) and Taylor's Sandalwood (quite nice; certainly the pick of the bunch).

Creams (which I haven't yet tried): Harris Lavender, Harris Marlborough, and Morison's (not the shop) Fougere.

:hungrig

Edit: Forgot to mention that Paul also very kindly threw in a couple of Connaught cream samples - Lavender and a Lime. :cool:
 
Got my samples from Paul today - what a great service.

2 sandalwoods (Taylors and Three Crowns) and some Cella Classic

Very very impressed.

Gents: use this service, please. I can't imagine Paul makes much on it and it's a great way to try a decent amount of some great products without spending a fortune and being stuck with lots of something you don't like.

BTW, Brother Henk has given me lots of help in formulating my own sandalwood a/s (which is 19% sandalwood eo, 1% bergamot eo and 80% ethanol). Not cheap to me make but I hope to have a few 5 ml samples available for the price of postage.
