I also got a bottle of Lanvin Avante Garde, of which I had read good things online. It's ok. Does not thrill me. Yet another woody amber. It was very cheap, though, so no worries.

Red Aoud
Years ago, when I was trying everything I could, I ordered a bunch of Montale samples, incuding Black Aoud and Red Aoud. At the time I felt Red Aoud to be to perfumey and gave the sample to my mother. I've grown rather weary of Montale, as they all seem to smell alike, but last week I saw Red Aoud on sale, so I grabbed it. You know? I actually like it.

Black Friday
Well, I had ordered it earlier but it arrived on Black Friday: Donna Karan Chaos. I'm wearing it now!
Reminds me a lot of Idole de Lubin. Or I suppose that should be the other way around.
So things I actually bought on Black Friday:
Dyson DC35 vacuum cleaner from BestBuy.
It was significantly discounted.
Some Pumas: The MY-70.
Rudolph Dassler Ansbach Mid.
Some presents: Person of Interest Season 2 for Dawn for Christmas. For Junior (real name Florencio) who sits next to me at work, the below Skagen Hiromichi Konno watch. I have the watch already, and Junior said at one point he liked it. He buys me lunch all the time, so I figure a Christmas present is not out of line. On sale at Amazon.
Fight Club in Blu Ray was only like $3, so I got that.
And finally, today, I got yet another pair of Palladiums, the below Pallabrouse Baggy Leather 2! On sale at Amazon. I hope the color really is like this!
I had had another pair of shoes, a pair of Lanvin sneakers that were more than half off at Barneys. I paid for them, got a confirmation, but later got a retraction. It was probably the last pair, and someone else had ordered them at the same time. I really like Lanvin sneakers, but they are ridiculously priced. These are the missed opportunity:
