A TITANIC CONGRATULATIONS FOR YOU!

Now that's something I'd be proud about -- don't forget to tell your grand-children!

Very impressive.

A cause for celebration, I say. I think this entitles you to go out and buy a big bottle of fragrance for yourself Grant. You deserve it!

Yeah sounds nice in theory, but I'm more likely having to sell my collection at the moment than adding new ones to it

Very nice press. Congratulations! I can't say I'm surprised, though. SAs in the fragrance departments seem to be mostly aware of BN, and I'm guessing a lot of them came to that knowledge through customer "osmosis". Word of mouth is the best advertising.
