Nordstrom fragrance event

I love perfume, so it was only natural that I attend Nordstrom Valley fair's fragrance event last Sunday. I've been several times before and enjoy going because each one is different, some good, some not so good. This time, it was not so good. For starters, they increased the ticket price from $10 to $25. Although this is deducted from your fragrance purchase, I think it may have kept some people from coming. There's usually red and white wine, but this time there were a variety of martini's. They lacked flavor and had very little alcohol, but they were pretty to look at. I'm not sure who decided to serve bite-sized cookies, but they didn't go with the martini's. One lady asked for coffee, which wasn't served this time as it was at past events. The vendors did offer some enticing free gifts with purchase, and with a much smaller crowd, they didn't seem to run out as quickly, which they did at previous events. There wasn't a fragrance I really wanted, so I purchased an "oldie but goodie": Hanah Mori, and received a free body lotion. It's perfect for spring and summer.
