Asphalt Flower is my favroite floral perfume ever....most likely because I dislike almost all floral and it has a deep, dark, delicious scent that goes great with my body chemistry and my personality

Thats awesome! I might have to start sniffing the other mac fragrances to see if anything is as great as AF.

Naw. It does suck that UK doesn't get certain collections but I miss it like
crazy. I miss going to one of the many freestanding stores. My first mac
makeover was in Harrods
although I rarely went there for clothes.
Too expensive for my wallet!
I listed my style black haul in the style black thread but I also got asphalt
flower and said I was going to make a smiley for it. Here they are :3
I had gone to get my Style Black Items thursday and got the asphalt flower.
I tried runway fave and our pick they are super pretty but with DSquared
coming so soon and the damage done by Style Black I had to pass on them.

I know you internationals are disappointed and I would be too because even if I didn't, I would like to opportunity to swatch and see if I wanted it.
BUT
the quad is so dupable. My friend saw it (because I'm too lazy to go to store) and was like can't she get this from the permanent line and the MA said yes.

You gals from across the pond shouldnt fret over this collection the quad and lippies are nothing new. The only thing worth getting from the collection is Asphalt Flower. this is one of those collections you will hardly remember in a year, kinda like (IMO) Suite Array or Gold Fever.

The only reason why I got the fragrance was because I was in there to get
Style Black items. I didn't pay much attention to this collection on the mac
website or here until a this past thursday.
I may have to omit something from DSquared list in order to get a backup
of this stuff. I've been using it 24/7 I must admit the cute packaging was
the main reason I tried it out. Is there any sort of non LE dupe of this?

i like this one too, but its no photorealism in my eyes, i LOVE that quad
