Answers to your questions regarding when flavors
will be back

Thank you all for the many, many Blogs! And "Welcome" to all you new customers, too! Skip and I think it's wonderful to see so many new friends joining our "family"!

You have asked many questions, especially about whether we will be carrying some of your favorite fragrances again - if ever! As you know, we have over 100 fragrances, and we are adding NEW ones all the time - so, unfortunately, this makes it impossible to keep everything, year after year, even if we love them. Sad, but true.

The trend in fragrances, as in fashion, always calls for newness, newness, newness. Remember my saying: "Predictability is the kiss of death"? Well, I, like many of you, USED to be set in my ways - but now, after many years, I have finally learned how to have a fabulous time discovering OTHER fragrances, OTHER ingredients, and other herbs and botanicals! God's Garden is just chock full of surprises, marvels of color and of scent, and full of exciting gifts for one and all. Let's open our lives to discovery, change, and new favorites!!!!!

Here are some answers to your questions:
- Ylang Ylang: Back, in "spurts “
- Blue Iris: Back, in "spurts" but is available now on HSN.com
- Royal Lily & Peony: Will not be back.
- Rosa di Maggio: On it's way in November but can also be found now on HSN.com
- Green Tea: Can be found on HSN.COM, right now.
- Calla Lily: Shower Cream and Body Cream on HSN.COM right now.
- Jasmine: Blue Jasmine introduced in November and is even better than Jasmine!
- Musk: Back in 2008 – but new.
- Honey Bran Soap: No plans to bring it back.
- White Tea/Bergamot: No plans to bring it back.
- White Tea/Magnolia: No plans to bring it back.
- Wild Orchids: No plans to bring it back.
- Travel Sizes: We will bring back the body creams...right now the hand creams and shower gels are too costly to produce in tubes.

So there you have it for the moment.

Another concern of yours I wanted to address is that many times you say you receive jars of our body cream which are not "full", or that the cream does not go to the top of the jar. We have enlarged our body cream jars to a 7 oz. size, as opposed to the original 6.7 oz. size. HOWEVER, you are getting a full- 7 oz. body cream. It is just that it is in an 8.4 oz. jar!!! Therefore, it will never be filled to the top.

When the jars are filled, in Italy, the body cream DOES appear to be higher - but during travel to the USA, the body cream will "settle". Please believe me, you are getting a full body cream, in the amount of 7 oz., no matter how it appears in the jar. I hope I have put your fears to rest!

Thanks again for all your input. I'll see you the end of October and the beginning of November.

I too love the florals instead of the fruit scents. The best florals have been discontinued. Please consider the people who prefer floral scents and bring them back periodically. I have started buying only shea butter since the fruits scents have taken over.

Amanda Skip, When is Perlier's Caribbean Vanilla Eau de Toilette going to be back? Vanilla Coffee is my favorit, in fact I got a bottle from then internet and dropped it on my bathroom floor and now it won't spray. I haven't given up, I'm will find a spray bottle I can put it in. I also love the mango and lime but would love to have the coffee back. I'm going to order two more bottles of the mango while they are still available! Thanks, Kathy

I have been using the newest honey body miel, just went online to reorder and it's not there. This is also the case with the same line in liquid soap. This is getting very old, we enjoy one line especially and cannot find to reorder. I guess I will cancel and future orders with your line and try another vendor, one who does not discontinue the lines so often.

Hi- I bought my daughter your hazelnut bath gel and lotion for Christmas and she has used it all, with the help of her three year old son! I went to your site on HSN to re-order for her;however, it seems that you aren't making it. When, if ever, can I expect to be able to order Hazelnut? Thank-you for your products and your time, CeLora Haviland

i love the pink peony oil spray[eaudeparfume]. i haven't seen it for a long time amanda...will you be bringing it back?

PLEASE bring back Pink Peony!!! It is the only fragrance I wear that doesn't affect my allergies and everyone always comments on how nice it smells! It's so frustrating to find that one of the most popular fragrances is constantly unavailable. Many of us don't want to change, or can't change our shower gel constantly. New items are wonderful, but NOT at the expense of the tried and true items that have built the line. Please bring back Pink Peony!

I am so disappointed to see you are not bring back the Green Tea with Bergamot. I used it recently at the hospital and the nurses fell in love with the fragrance. I still get comments on the scent every time I use it at someone's home when I vacation there. Please, bring it back I really liked it in the 32 oz bottle!! I have even tried to buy a bergamot body wash at other stores but it doesn't have the same fragance, they don't even compare to your body wash!!!

Hi Skip and Amanda. I love the Snowdrop diffusers as well. I think it's my favorite of all the one's I've tried so far. I hope they'll be back soon. Thanks!

Hi Skip and Amanda, I love your products; they are the best! My absolute FAVORITE is White Tea with Italian Lemon. When will it be back? Thanks in advance!

Skip and Amanda: I love your products. I don't know which is my favorite; I use different ones at different times of the year to match the season. I have been waiting for the Cucumber/Mint body cream, shower gel and hand cream; I have a jar of the body cream and hand cream and use them sparingly because I haven't seen it offered in quite a while and just don't want to be without it. It is a wonderful scent and I hope that you will bring it back soon.

Hello Skip and Amanda. I want to tell you that I really love your products and watching you on HSN. I just wanted to know when you will be bringing back the Snowdrop Diffusers. I bought one over the holidays and I put it in my bathroom. It really smells wonderful. The one I have is almost gone and I would love to get another one.

Peony not coming back? I thought it was the favorite of nearly everyone! While I understand the need to discontinue fragrances with new ones coming out, why discontinue something so popular?

I would love to buy the almond blossom spray that is featured in the brochure that comes with the Elariia shea butter items that I purchase. I love the scent and I would love to have more of the scent in the form of the spray. I have searched for it to no avail...

Would love to know why you have discontinued Pink Peony perfume!! (I'm not talking about the Eau de Toilette.) I love that scent and it is the only perfume that I have used in about 4 years because I bought so much when I discovered that I loved it. Now I foud out that I can't get anymore because HSN is not carrying it anymore. Is it available at any other location like one of the stores that sells Perlier?? Help!!! I need my Pink Peony!!!

Two of my favorite flavors are PINK PEONY and LILY OF THE VALLEY, are you ever going to have them back? They remind me so much of my dear Grandmother who passed 40 years ago, please bring back these two, they are wonderful.
