Does anyone know the cutoff date for Allure Beauty box? I’m getting this as a gift and can’t open them until my birthday. I believe it was ordered on the 28th or 29th of October. I assumed I would receive the November box first but I’m getting totally mixed messages. I contacted allure asking them this and they just replied giving me my tracking number. The box is already here I just cant look at it lol. They totally ignored my question and just was like, “Open it and find out for yourself!” I was going to reply saying that wasn’t my question but it took them so long to get back to me its not worth it.
I just have to say Allure falls short on important purchase details. Before and after buying. Their FAQs are pathetic in my opinion.
Oh and just so people know IM not trying to peek in the box before my birthday.. This is literally just to find out when to stop the subscription. I’ve got it for six months and I don’t want it to turn into seven.

I know people will be annoyed at getting a fourth Bulgari mini but this one is probably one of the most popular. I think it will satisfy a variety of perfume lovers. Every time I ask someone what perfume they’re wearing, it’s Crystalline.

Annoyed as this is my 3rd box and will be another one of these. I don’t tolerate cologne smells well, and the last one was open in my box and it took forever to get the scent off my hands. I joined this subscriptions because I thought there would be more unique products. Rey disappointed. ?

This has got to be a joke. SURELY they realize that this is just insulting. It would be one thing, I guess, if the Bulgari mini ended up being just a little bonus, throw-in “surprise” item when we got our boxes. But to lead with this mini reveal as the SPOILER?! Usually the spoiler items are more coveted or unique items to entice people to subscribe. This makes me worry that the rest of the box is crap (or that they’re still figuring it out / scrambling for a replacement product).
On the other hand–to take an optimistic view–maybe Allure is planning to send us some SUPER epic item in November’s box, so are deliberately withholding that spoiler and underwhelming us, for fear of triggering another run on their subscription and overselling the month (like the month they spoiled the Foreo).
I worry that it’s the first option, but will continue hoping it’s closer to the second option.
Echoing what’s been said here: PLEASE no more Purlisse or dry shampoo.

I’m particular about my scent, but I’ve been collecting all these mini’s to make a great gift for my mom. She’ll love them!
I’m personally waiting for the Jasmine Noir. That’s what I wear…common Allure!! Gimme my scent!

I haven’t been a huge fan of the previous 2 or 3 scents from Bvlgari, so this spoiler sucks IMO. I think I would be more excited about the larger sized scent samples if they were packaged differently. I hate these weird, hard to open minis. The first one I opened (even after following directions) spilled like half of it onto me! Learning curve I suppose. Maybe the regular sized bottles of this would open easier, but I hate it based on shape alone. Based on how many people in this thread alone hate these samples, you would think Allure would get a clue.

Overall this box has been a good value for me so I don’t mind sticking with it for the price. But this is kind of a strange choice for the spoiler. Even those of us who like the Allure box are like “really.. again..?” I don’t care for any of the Bulgari minis we’ve received but it’s not expensive and they’re not hard to swap or just add as a swap extra or gift. Not a big deal, just a really odd spoiler since they’ve kinda done this Bulgari mini thing to death now.

Hi Liz!
Another off topic deal to mention….
Macy’s now has sampler sets available (similar to Sephora’s Favorites kits).
They are:
-Mascara Sampler Set (6 piece): $20 ($57 value)
-Lip Sampler Set (5 piece): $20 ($71 value)
-Women’s Fragrance Sampler (6 piece): $20 ($50 value)
If you search “sampler set” you should be able to find them. 🙂

What a horrible spoiler lol Man that stuff stinks. I love the Allure boxes, but I hope this isn’t the best part of the box. That mini will tossed in the donation pile.

I totally agree. My first instinct is to cancel because I don’t even want that in my house.

NOT ANOTHER BVLGARI PERFUME. I don’t care how cute the bottles are they all smell like pre-teens and bad decisions. Although that being said…at 26 I couldn’t very well be a grandma to Allure’s target market. Regardless, I’ll be cancelling this month with hopes that next month will be better because I have truly loved most of the products Allure has sent out. Better luck next month guys!

“Bad Decisions” is a GREAT name for a teenybopper perfume by the way, ha!

Loved this box in October – excellent value for the cost – and it looks like this one will be as well. The tiny bottle is so cute.

Yay! I love these cute little bottles!! And I have loved all of their scents so far, so I am excited! 😀
Same here! I love Bvlgari perfume, and I wouldn’t mind at all establishing a full collection of their mini perfumes through the Allure box. 🙂

I received the Bulgari Omnia Coral in my September box. I’m curious to see if they send me a different one. Here’s hoping for no Purlisse or dry shampoo.

I’m so annoyed with this. I’m annoyed that they’re sending this out again and I’m annoyed that I don’t have the courage to cancel and I’m annoyed that it’s only $16.10 a month, so why am I even thinking about it?

Lol! I’m in the same boat. I finally put it on hold, I normally don’t look at spoilers cause I like being surprised but this time I’m looking at the spoilers to see if I want to restart haha

I was seriously considering this box. But this spoiler sucks. I’ve gotten those little perfumes for free before and they don’t even smell good. And after reading the comments I’m not so sure I want to sign up

Well I have recieved 2 of the green one. One in like Jan and the other in Aug I believe. I sent an email for the hell of it and said that I already recieved that one and that I thought I was getting the red colored one. They said they would nicely but I still waiting ?. After the 2 dry shampoo and the same perfume in one box so I cancelled last month. I truely can’t believe they are gonna send out different perfumes with the high likelihood of getting the same one for the 3rd time in less then a year. Not cool Allure…. Booo.

Layla
I’m so mad too!! I have a million hand creams, same perfumes, and dry shampoo for a year!

Right grrrrrr. I could see if they were only sending out the newest one but Liz said perfumes with be different so I could really get that same mini 3 times in less then a year and many other things too. The perfume is crazy strong too. I love mini perfumes alot… I I would love one in every box but not of this brand… Mix it up….. Is that to much to ask. Allure you are slowly killing my love for you. With mixed boxes now and same brands and products alot I have moved on and I never wanted too…. Heartbroken

Seriously, again with the Bulgari perfume!? This month, I got yet another Klorane dry shampoo (2nd time from Allure in the last few months, and this will be my 3rd Bulgari since my first box this last spring). It seems like they’ll have a few great months, then once they get a bunch of new subscribers the quality goes down quickly. Heading over to cancel right now. There’s just too much repetition of brands (Klorane, Mally, and Purlisse. . sometimes the same brand two month’s in a row!

I canceled last month . I wasn’t too happy with allure and when I called bc I had an issue with my box in October they didn’t charge my card for a November box and I never received one. Never had an issue with them until now so I was surprised . Instead of making it a bigger issue I just logged on and canceled .

I’m happy to try a new scent. I really like the Coral one from a couple of month ago. Though, I didn’t like the green or gold one.
