...Hey there, American in Germany 🙋‍♀️ DHL owns Deutsche Post, it’s the same thing - basically the package branch of their service. It’s easy to send perfumes within Germany but may be illegal to import them like it is for any kinds of medicines or vitamins. German customs are really overbearing and strict and they hold way too many packages. I’ve been here 20 years and it’s gotten worse and more expensive, to the point I ask my American people not to send stuff anymore or just use a courier as they have an easier time with customs, but you pay for that. I’ve had better luck getting things quickly through customs with FedEx and UPS. Good luck! 😅 

...I love patchouli and am eager to share my faves but how do I tag perfumes in here? Thanks ☺️ 

...I wear all of my perfumes regularly - my collection isn’t too huge probably under or around 20- so I keep the bottles out. Plus, some of them are really pretty and isn’t that part of the whole hobby and art - the bottles? Seems like a pity to keep those hidden away. I have read though that it’s best to store them cool and dark, and in the box is a great way to do that. I used to keep the boxes but I live in a small apartment and have been declutterring lately and just threw the boxes out. 🤷‍♀️
