    Givaudan can be so confusing sometimes! I had two surveys about deodorant, both were the same. A few days later, I got an email saying that I would participate in the study. Today I got an email saying that I have not bee retained, then another email to say my deodorant has been dispatched and how to use it.

    So I emailed Givaudan to ask them, and they said I could not participate in the test... :(

    Hope they were wrong, ha!

    I would give it another week or so, it took a long time for me to hear that they were processing the forms, I had given up!

    thanks zoeholt... I see from looking back on thread you got/signed and sent your forms just over a week before I got mine....so it may be another week or so.

    I just tried the washing up liquid today for the first time, its crap - not enough bubbles and they didn't last until I'd finished. My normal Sainsburys washing up liquid is much better. Didn't like the sort of vaguely appleish smell either :)

    I have just received the aerosol deodorant to test today - came in a huge box, lots of packing and polystyrene squiggles, but it is absolutely miniscule. How they think it could possibly last for two weeks use is beyond me. Still, the enormous amount of packaging made us chuckle.

    Totally agree. It's horrible. It comes out like water. The bubbles are gone before you even start doing the washing up. And that banana type smell makes me feel sick.

    Well, after being told I would not participate in the test, I received my minuscule deodorant yesterday, packed in an enormous box. Is Givaudan trying to compete with Amazon for wasting so much packaging?

    I just love my country: French logistic and administrative genius! :rotfl:

    Also, I am afraid this deodorant will not last me for even a week, as the spray can has not been fully filled up, and after one use, it already sounds pretty empty.

    I didn't like the washing up liqud either, was used within a few days, and didn't do the job properly. Loved all the hair products I've tested (tresemme) been always been fab.

    Think I must have missed the deodorant survey for once, not like me, but never mind!
    New forum. New sig. Yes I still need to lose 2 stone! :smiley:

    I got the deodorant but mine was a roll on, it's great and smells lovely. I can actually smell it all day. I've had an email today saying I'm on the dishwasher tabs trial. Anyone else?
