Duchaufour, take a bow. Penhaligonβs is a funny little house; they regularly discontinue to the extreme that theyβve just discontinued their titular βMr Penhaligonβ fragrance. However, when they get it right they get it so right, that when they get it wrong itβs not such a problem.
Lothair is an example of Penhaligonβs getting it right. Crispy grapefruit at the top, creamy fig milk in the middle and cedar at the bottom. Itβs my scent for this evening and for an EDT itβs not bad at all in the longevity and sillage department. Cheers and all my best!
Looking for a full or partial bottle. Thanks!

Looking for full or partials of both of these fragrances
In 846 Gilbert, Count of the Maasgau, abducted an unnamed daughter of Lothair and his wife Ermengarde of Tours. He took her to Aquitaine and married her in an attempt to force Lothair to get his county back which was revoked.
Please, add this mechanic lol.

Hi All! Birchbox currently has a 50% sale going on and we can get these for great prices. If you'd like full bottles this is the chance to get some! (thanks for the heads up /u/H20-50!)
However if you just want to try it out first or only want a little bit by means of a split please let me know your interest below.
Thinking of 10ml splits for each Priced at the 50% discounted rate + ~$4.50 for shipping & materials which is working out to roughly under $15 for each some work out even cheaper!
Like I always have done before, just expressing here that I do not split for profit or to make money off of this in any way. It is simply to share the passion for fragrances and be able to enjoy a variety without breaking the bank.
It's here, people!!

- For the re-readers: what foreshadowing did you spot? For everyone: What are you supe
So I've seen this book recommended alot, and whilst I have avoided vampire romances and paranormal romances in general, the MMC as a villain intrigues me so I wanted to give it a go.
However, I've heard some people say that you should read the previous books before reading this to understand the MMC better, that it's more enjoyable if you've read the other books, and it doesn't read well as a standalone
I don't have time to read 10 books prior to this, so should I just read this book? Do you think it's okay to read as a standalone?
If not, which of the previous books should I read to get a better understanding of him?
Recommend for readers who like: urban fantasy, PNR, vampires, >!the villain gets the girl, opposite attraction: grumpy vs sunshine, class difference: snobby billionaire vs dirt poor hillbilly (living in a trailer)!<
I'm after some readings (primary, secondary, book or journal article; it doesn't matter) on the rule of Lothair I in the 9th century. The only history journal I know of is Early Medieval History but a quick search for 'Lothair' doesn't bring anything up, so any help ranging from names of journals to hunt through or specific articles/books/etc. would be greatly appreciated.
