Has anyone purchased the powder? Temptalia said that it was good as an all-over powder, so I'm considering purchasing it but I need to know the ingredients. I emailed CS but they still haven't responded.

oh no.. Chanel CS is notorious for being worse than bad.

I tried Sakura today. I agree that it is not an incredibly unique shade, but it is pretty on. I would consider sending it back b/c it is dupable. Since it is now OOS, however, the makeup nut in me wont let me return it. LOL

I got my stuff in the end, (thanks to customs holding it for me for almost two weeks lol)
My favorite is certainly Illusion d'Ombre Rose des Vents. I don't know why Temptalia rated it low, it has a very pretty sheen and looks lovely on (I am wearing it today together with the quad). And it is very different than the other pink IdOs.
Blush is nice but yes, I don't think it is that special. If you have Rose Initial, you are set I think. Only for those, who are pale and find Rose Initiale too dark may like this one. That said I like how it shows on my light to medium complexion as a very natural flush.

Thank you for the swatches on your blog.

I cannot wait to buy mine, I find Rose Initiale and Pink Explosion too pigmented sometimes, and absolutely love Discretion, so I think Sakura is worth it for me!

All your comparisons were a great help!

That is really pretty..I'm going to get it :)
T's swatches of Fleurie are very different. I will have to swatch in person (it will be on Counter here).

Also, around 5:15 mins in, this lovely lady swatches it and puts more on (she has been wearing it the whole time)- it looks different on her again! More coral than T and Sabrina.

This could be hit or miss!

It looks very pretty on T I think. The video is hard to tell from the lighting but it looks pretty on her. You're right, it does look lighter & more coral.

Here is another look with rose IdO on the eyes. You need to scroll to almost the end of the post. Very pretty, I might cave. http://drivelaboutfrivol.blogspot.sg/2014/03/saturday-smatterday.html?m=1
