I mentioned to my husband if he ever wanted to know what to buy me as a gift, to please purchase the Oleander Collectors gift set, which includes perfume, lotion, 3 bars of soap and the Eau De Toilette.
After many years of living and enjoying life, I completely forgot about the Lili Bermuda Perfumery. However, I recently had a milestone birthday, and my husband took us on a wonderful birthday cruise. I thought the cruise was my gift, but he surprised me with a beautiful, Oleander Collectors gift set. Talking about ecstatic, I was completely surprised by the gift and the fact that he remembered after all these years. And, to add a little spice to the entire story, we live in Mexico, so my husband had to coordinate and collaborate with the perfumery in time for my surprise to arrive in a timely manner. Well, apparently the perfumery shipped my gift to Mexico, but the gift got stuck in customs.
As my birthday quickly approached, my husband had to figure out another way to acquire my surprise gift. It just so happened that we were returning to the United States for my birthday cruise but would only be in the USA for a day before we cruise. We have a mailbox that we only check every 2 years or so. With mostly everything done online now, we rarely receive snail mail. So, my husband had to really coordinate with Isabelle at Lili Bermuda to ensure the gift would arrive during our 24 hours stay in the United States. The gift arrived right on time and my husband managed to sneak the box into our luggage so that he could surprise me on my birthday.
It is the most beautiful gift, lovingly wrapped and protected. It brought tears to my eyes and a huge hug and kiss to my sweetie. I was genuinely touched, happy and excited to receive such a handsome gift. I could not wait to get home so that I could display it on my vanity. I wear my Oleander every day; it reminds me of my birthday and makes my heart smile. When I contacted the perfumery to thank them for such a wonderful gift and the help they provided my husband, they shared with me that my fragrance was considered “the little black dress” of fragrances, since the company has been making it since 1930, and it continues to be one of their best sellers.
If you happen to be in Bermuda, make sure you visit this cute little shop or if you cannot wait, go to the website, and explore the many options in the world of scents. Isabelle is the best and will assist you in finding your perfect fragrance.
P.S. we've already booked our next cruise back to Bermuda!
