I've got to add that while the scents may be intoxicating, the hair conditioner does not condition and the hand lotion does not provide lasting skin hydration. Using these products during the dry winters is particularly unsatisfying. I'd prefer to have products which actually work, thank you. (I'll never understand how a clear hair conditioner could ever be expected to condition.)

I finally tried the stuff in Zurich a few weeks ago. Not sure I understand what the fuss is all about. It is certainly not horrible (except for the conditioner… it is like sludge… sort of like an orange and celery smoothie in a bottle… 
seriously feel like I need to wash my hair again after using it)...

FWIW, the complimentary body lotion comes in two sizes at the PH Vendome. First time I've noticed it. The new (?) size is about half-again the size of the one we're used to. I'm not sure if this has been noted in the PH Vendome thread ...or maybe everyone but me already knows.

I believe they come in 50ml and 80ml bottle. The 80ml bottle is given in Suites, while the 50ml bottle is for regular rooms.
I hope they are not introducing smaller bottle than 50ml.

I was recently (a couple of days ago) in a jr. suite, which was originally set up with the slightly bigger bottles, but subsequently they replenished with the regular 50ml bottles. Is that normal, or is it one of the many cost cutting measures at the PH Vendome? For instance, replenished slippers from day 2 on are cheap white ones. Also, for the first time, no Diamond amenities - before, they used to always offer a bottle of red wine and a small fruit plate.
