Noor going online? Penhaligon's online in ... Toronto?

Dropped into Noor today and made a small purchase.

Nahla mentioned that they will test in this quarter an ecommerce site to ship Penhaligon's (and their other) products in Canada. Even the colognes.

Can't wait!

I am VERY interested....

Right on. Do let us know if this actually goes live. I'm still waiting for the Truefitt & Hill online store in Canada to get going too.

If you want T&H products, Josh Fairweather at David E. White in London, Ontario will ship to you for a song.

Ok fellow Canucks - we should see if we can get some of these vendors to give deals to B&B members or sponsor some sort of give-away here.

It would be great PR and they'd get a lot of business if their prices were right - especially on the AS and colognes.

Don't get your hopes up - the prices at their B&M are insanely high.

The prices at White were higher than the US stores, and I haven't been to T&H in TO yet ... but Josh threatened to ship to me for 5 bucks ... worth a try?

P.S. If you drive through London now and then (I do), even better.
P.P.S. Noor isn't cheap either, until you factor in S&H, especially in a hazmat environment. BTW, the Penhaligon's BB soap is 30 bucks plus taxes. What's not to like?

I have a puck reserved for myself that I will pick up at the start of the week. She said they maybe have 2 BB pucks left so stop by Noor if you want one.
I orginally wanted the BB in the bowl but they still haven't got any in since Oct. She also said they share shipments with the NY store and their in the same boat regarding the BB with bowl. Shortage of trees I guess. I'll settle for just the puck for now. My BB cream is getting a workout so this should alleviate some of the stress.

I had a gift card for a free tub of T&H cream.
Cost...................$55.................I would never pay that myself or ever get a shave again by the girl who works there!

Just got back from a nice visit with Nahla at Noor. I had to pick up a Blenheim Bouquet puck and wanted to sample some of the L'Artisan Parfumer line. She is very educated when it comes to the products they have so I highly recommend going down and talking to her. They have the whole line of Penhaligon's/ L'Artisan Parfumer/ and Santa Maria Novella. There is more there but thats all I had my eyes on today.

Anyways, she walked me through the L'Artisan Parfumer line that I been wanting to try for a long time. I stayed away from the floral scents and some of the more complex scents this time. My favorites so far, L'Eau de L'Artisan, Tea for Two, and Thé Pour un Été. Got samples of those and now the testing begins.
I was very impressed with the Santa Maria Novella line also. I really like their signature scent "Santa Maria Novella".

So I didn't come away with a bottle today (next visit) but did pick up a L'Artisan candle for the wife along with my BB puck. I was really impressed with how helpfull and knowledable Nahla was and I stress anyone who is in the Toronto area to stop by sometime for a pleasurable experience.

They will be going live online around spring as cr8n mentioned a few post ago. Great for us Canadians....can't wait.

PS,
The BB soap was tallow based!..................:)
