Elle 25 by Francis Kurkdjian for British Elle

Congratulations Kterhawk, Dianthus and Naheed!! :-)

It seems we all entered, and all won!! I am expecting my signed bottle as well! I guess we all had great submissions...or else they felt bad for never getting back to us and are sending these as a consolation!!

Either way I am so very happy to have won anything, especially something signed by Francis Kurkdijan...

All of the winners: Please PM me and let me know when you get yours, and how it is...and I will do the same. I cannot wait until I actually smell it...and we ALL owe Fragrantica a big thank-you!! *THANKS YOU GUYS!* As I would never have even known about this contest, without this site...or met ANY of you wonderful people! :-)

Thanks again, to Fragrantica...and thank you to British Elle (better late than never!)

Kterhark - congratulation too! I also get the message and waiting for a bottle :D

Zoka- it was either here or on (the other site), I can't remember. But I will certainly review it here!

Congratulations Kterhark! Did you find out about the contest here at Fragrantica?

HI, the deadline was Oct 1 for your entry. I entered... and I won!!! I"m very excited about this, they are mailing the bottle this week. It is autographed too :-)

Thanks for everybody "involved in this" ;) Congratulations for the 25 winners :D and waiting for reviews !

Thanks gypsy parfumista!

Let's keep in touch and I will PM zoka...he will know what to do.

Good luck to you both (naheed & dianthus) :-)

Oh dear! I received the same out of office auto-reply when I entered the contest. Anybody knows what to do?

i wrote exactly 70 words...wish u luck too:)

Ya! i did the same and receive same response.....:(

but i wrote a question "where i can send my brief" on question form of elle. But no one wrote me back...you were right...something is not right in there:/

I entered the contest and sent the e-mail as instructed and received an out of office auto-reply...

It said "Thank you for your rsvp, but the gala at whitechapel guest list is closed (?!)for the 6th of September (well, yeah it's the 10th and I'm pretty sure it is over)and made no mention of the contest...

If this is how British Elle runs a contest, I don't know...

I was very proud of myself, though, I did it, and in only 62 words, if only my reviews were so short, eh?

Wish me luck!!

ya, you are right...queer:/ and all 25 they give away...also strange...

@ dianthus: I thought about it but the 70 word limit kinda threw me...and they already made the scent so how can you say how you would bring ELLE to life when they already did it?

I may try though, it would be too flowery for me (I think) but if I did win one, it would be worth an awful lot to have an autographed flacon from FK...

Anybody decided to take part...?:) Great idea for contest ...maybe I try ;)?...
