Well, the batch code is apparently 40l2, the balm was produced in December 2022. So yes, this seems to be the limited edition offered at the beginning of 2023, as seen from the reviews. Just so you know.
Yes, it was.
200 ml last way longer and only because there is a "six months after opening shelf life" doesn't mean the product will be off a day after these six months.
Did you see the reviews?
As I wrote above, the reviews are from last year. But maybe there were some red jars left and they used them for QVC? ;-) By the way, when there were three different 200ml balms on offer to choose from last year, I bought the (old) watermint option. I have used it and in my opinion there was no...
Edit: ...it Is out of stock.
And: The reviews at John Lewis start in February..... 2023.

I just loooove the scent. :) By the way, does anyone know if the red limited edition jar is new? You can buy it at Harrod's and John Lewis, too, but it us currently out of stock and well, we all know the "old stock moments", don't we?
I didn't know that. But to my excuse, if I use LE, it's always Superskin. Haven't used it for a long while because of the changes that were made, but bought the TSV in November/December (?) last year and then also the serum so I am ready to come back to LE.
