When Antonio laid out how the BOS needed to function moving forward, I knew I wanted to go VIP when it fit into the budget. Well that time is now, and here's a shoutout to @Antonio Centeno for getting the MF set and other VIP items shipped out, and in my hands, very quickly. After stepping away from this community for many months, and easing my way back into it in October, I fully understand and appreciate the real value that is available here. The quality engagement and exchange of honest information is the biggest benefit for me. We have seen that simply generating likes and activity provides little substance for us, the members, but to be able to learn something from someone else, every day, about fragrances and houses that I've never heard of, provides emotional and monetary value that simply isn't available from Fragrantica, Youtube or a Google search. The list of discounts, services, opportunities for learning, and inner-circle level discussions that Antonio has provided are all unique, and are things I will continue to take advantage of. When you factor in the cost of a Mission Fragrance Set into the cost of VIP for a year, that flipped the "No Brainer" switch for me. I have always associated scent with mood and thought, and I am looking forward to working through the MF course with the fragrance set in hand. I see this step as more than just a financial transaction, but confirmation of a commitment from me to the BOS to continue growing in my fragrance knowledge and in my ability to uplift the members here, in order to help you grow in your fragrance journey. It is also a commitment to Antonio's business, because none of this exists without his ongoing involvement. As consumers, we have the luxury of choice, to be able to speak with our money, and it is my pleasure to be able to contribute to the success of RMRS and the BOS! Keep smelling great brothers and sisters!
