Must smell like vice Has anyone every successfully ordered from the Demeter website? I've been trying to order some 1/2 oz minisplash bottles (Bourbon, Espresso and Funeral Home, if you're curious) for about a month. I get a weird error and customer service keeps telling me they'll call me back, but never do. None of the local Demeter-carrying shops have these scents. Lo, I am sad! and Stinky!

I have never ordered directly from Demeter. Maybe you could try ordering Demeter through Sephora. I never have had a problem with Sephora.

They don't seem to have your fragrances. I linked too fast!

Totally unhelpful, sorry, but if you ever come to NYC, you can go to the shop of Christopher Brosius, who I think started Demeter, or at least was involved early on:

There are way more than on that page, and in the shop, he has a huge mastiff that always just misses knocking stuff over with his tail. The Russian Caravan Tea is awesome.

Remember (or do they still do them?) those little vials that would have a smidgen of perfume in them? Someone should do sample packs of those like the mineral makeup thingie (which took TWO WEEKS to get to me, stupid Canada Post).

Forgot to add:

This is probably a silly question, but did you try a different browser? I find that IE *gag* is, on occasion, the only browser that will let me do something.
