Good video but I didn't like the narrator.

i loved the narrator's voice! also, great props behind the perfumes - very creative and added to the interest of this video. maybe if there were more lines that had more "punch" some people here would've liked the narrator better..

I love Annick Goutal so much but Miss Dior is nasty. It smells thick and syrupy sweet. It could be really pretty if it was toned down a bit. One spray gives me a headache.

I like going to oil booths at fairs, and making my own oil based perfumes, but. Must admit, anything with bergamot has my interest.

I've never heard of Yellow Jeans. What's it like? Also, I googled it, and hit the "shopping" tab, and it looks like a few store are still selling it, but only have a few bottles left :)

My favorite fragrances are YSL Babydoll Paris because it literally smells like the way passion/orange/guava juice tastes! And Annik Goutal Eau d' Hardin(sp?). I got a sample of the Annik Goutal through you guys and I'm obsessed! It smells like fresh oranges and flowers after it rains. So fresh and not at all over-powering! I'm going to be buying it from you guys ASAP.

I love the video, the info was great and I really enjoyed it! I thought the narration was very knowledgeable, but the music was too loud so it was hard to understand her!

My favorite evening scent is Obsession by Calvin Klein. I love, love, love it and when people smell it on me they love it too! My favorite scent of all time has been discontinued. Its Versace Yellow Jeans. I wish they would re-release for just a short amount of time. I like to change up my every day scents depending on my mood and the season and where I'm going. Right now, I am loving Thierry Mugler Alien, Dolce & Gabanna Feminine, this season's Escada summer scents...I have a ton of scents.
