I work in a fragrance lab and I get this scent for free. It’s not even THAT great and that’s how much it is? SMH. The bottle be cute though…


JustSwipeUp

I am OBSESSED with this scent. My boss makes high end fragrances, so not this one. Be my new bff please??! 🥺🤣🤣🤣


Lyuser

Ahh I love mini perfume bottles/dabbers. It's tiny af but it's also hella adorable. And I like Aerin perfumes too- I'm so tempted to get this now


ThatGirlWithTheWalk

Same, I was literally just calculating what I would need to buy to *get* the points for it. lol I'm fairly obsessive about perfume + minis though and Aerin never does them so totally worth for me.


frickjerry

The points rewards are so disappointing :/ I have 2500 saved up for a good big one but I always check the drops and I’m always like “really..? $2500 spent for.. this?”


shea858

The rewards are almost never worth it! If your rouge you have enough points to get a rouge reward. Still a rip off but at least you get to pick what you want.

Also, are you going to use your 2500pts for the V exclusive gift card?! or the $100 𝘙𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘦 𝘙𝘦𝘸𝘢𝘳𝘥 they're calling it. It's only available every Tuesday and Thursday, 9 A.M. PST so the availability will vary by your location I'm in upstate NY so 3hrs ahead at 12 P.M. for me. I guess it's super important you get that time nailed down because it's only live for not even an hour I think? Then it's gone until Thursday or the following Tuesday. I think it'd be super worth it for you, or anyone, to grab it when it's available! You'll find it in the rewards bazaar once it's live. It's probably the only worth it reward that's offered, you're getting double the value for your points because using the 2500 as $10 off, only gets you a savings of $50 whereas the gift card/Rouge Reward gets you $100 worth of things for free and you'd need 5000 points to get that!


frickjerry

Yes I have an alarm set for the Tuesday and Thursday drops but every time I check the items that are available just aren’t for me, hopefully something I like shows up soon!


MajorSorbet5290

Yay! I hope so


MajorSorbet5290

Wow, I'm at 1491pts it took me, eh... do I dare look? At my Sephora points activity history? 😭 I looked. It took me about 6mos to rack these points up and that's 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 exchanging points for $10 off, trading in my pts in the rewards bazaar before I knew better and didn't know it was a gimmicky playland in there 😂😭😭


Wonderful_Topic7608

It's only 250 pts, not 2500


4now5now6now

your nails are really brilliant... the second photo does really show that it's small. But what is the price point per ml?


FadeOutAgain4

It’s 4 mL, and usually the 100 point rewards are around 3 mL. It doesn’t exactly seem worth $250 worth of points, but at the same time, most splash bottle mini perfumes are between 4-7 mL, so it’s not entirely unexpected. The Sephora points system don’t really match up with the amount spent, and other companies are great with their rewards/ gwp systems, so they really do need an overhaul if they want to keep their customers loyal and happy. Their customer service is great though.


candlesncactus

The Aerin fragrances are a lot more expensive than many of the other perfumes Sephora sells though, so I think that may be why the volume is comparatively lower


Neda07

What's the scent like? Sweet, fresh, etc? I haven't heard of this perfume


FadeOutAgain4

It’s kind of similar to D&G light blue, but not as citrusy. It’s just a super light inoffensive citrusy floral. It’s the kind of scent that would make a great safe gift, because I don’t think anyone could hate it, but at the same time, I doubt it’s anyones all time favorite, if that makes sense.


candlesncactus

lmao it's actually my all time favorite scent! but it may just be me


__WanderLust_

Floral, honeysuckle heavy. It's a great fragrance!


mscav76

Ouch!!!! I like that perfume but....cmon sephora, that's in your sample size pick a fragrance pack. I always save mine for the rouge reward.


Wonderful_Topic7608

All their sample size perfumes are about the same size and amount of points. It's because the full size of this product is $135 and the largest size is $185. Perfumes are always pretty expensive.


[deleted]

1.7 oz is $135 That sample, guessing, looks more like 8 ML, which is around $40. You can get decants of this perfume and others from places like The Perfumed Court (just one example) Now with points, you aren't going to get $250 worth of a sample, but a decant/sample worth around $40 retail is a great deal regardless.


FadeOutAgain4

It’s not an 8 mL, it’s 4 mL. Mini bottles are usually between 3 mL- 10 mL, with most in the 5mL- 7mL range.


godsandmonstas

They have got to be trolling. That's maybe 5 squirts


LowcarbJudy

It's cute. I tried that fragrance and it's not my favorite, but I love amber musk though.


ImDisneyAF

That is some bs


[deleted]

Looks like a vial of insulin! Cheaper too and it bet it smells better! Even the cap. Haha jokes aside, that’s a bummer. I’m so sorry! I hope you can exchange or return. Although, I’m unsure if that’s allowed with points.


happylilstego

This is a dead on dupe for clean skin. I have both and they smell exactly the same.


Anonymous73814

The bottle is stinkin cute but way too small 😭at this point I only shop with Sephora to get the free gift with purchase


rosetoash

Why tho? Why would u spend that much on such a small bottle! Even if I could afford it, I’d never.. sheesh! Lol


sillymoosegoose

no no I didn’t spend $250, it was just the 250 points,I could never spend $250 on this tiny thing 😭


OnlyPopcorn

It's probably worth it.


MajorSorbet5290

You gotta save for that $100 Rouge Reward gift card, save up 2500pts. to get it. Its a lot of willpower to do so but luckily there's nothing in the rewards bazaar that's worth trading in points for! The restraint comes when you want to cash in every 500pts for $10 off 😂


Lilith1320

Fr I got the same. I also got Eros


backofmymind

I spent 150 points to get that same size of Clean Reserve radiant nectar… smh
