  2. I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR CULPEPER STEPHANOTIS TOILET WATER FOR A LONG TIME. DO ANY OF OUR ENGLISH MEMBER'S KNOW WHER IT CAN BE FOUND. I CALLED CULPEPER AND ASKED IF THEY WOULD RE-RELEASE IT AND WAS TOLD THATINGREDIANTS TO MAKE WERE NOT AVAILABLE ANF THE EXPSENSE WAS VERY COSTLY. tHE FLORIS t.w. IS TOO SWEET AND OTHER SUGGESTIONS?:huh:

    Michail, Good Luck!
    Let us know how you got on and whether you liked it.
    Passage D'Enfer is a personal favourite of mine.

    Regarding Culpeper, the company went into administration in February 2011. It was very sad because the shops had quite a following here. You can't get Stephanotis Toilet Water any longer. The lawyers for the company tell me that no one has bought the company or company name, all the stock was sold off before the company went bust.

    Thank you so much for letting me know I loved their toilet waters::sad:
