French Scents

*sniff* *sniff* Hmmmmmmm smells like France. Ummm okay, I tried to make this sound normal but I’ll admit, this is a weird post. However, I was thinking about the five senses, and if possible, I want to try to evoke all five of them. Let’s try it and see where it goes.

I already mentioned how the French are known for their fashion so of course we need to talk about perfume/cologne. In France, the perfume/cologne you wear defines you so choose wisely. I would love to be able to try to explain what the different perfumes/colognes smell like but honestly, expensive perfume/cologne all smells the same to me. I’ll list the top five most mentioned brands and if you want, you can watch some commercials for that brand (I personally love to watch their commercials; they’re so over the top). The first two are clearly the most popular brands and everything after that I’m less certain of.

#1 Chanel

First you get the ad I would expect from Chanel:

Next, they have an inspirational video:

And they even have one for people that enjoy Kristen Stewart (yes, that Kristen Stewart) going crazy!:

#2 Dior

I read the biggest difference between Chanel and Dior is that Chanel was more formal and Dior caters more to a younger audience. You can see that in their commercials:

But they also have the more stereotypical ad too:

#3 Guerlain

#4 Chloe

#5 Yves Saint Laurent

Finally, an ad featuring a guy (I promise I’m trying to make my male readers feel included too)

If you’re interested in the psychology of perfume (I don’t know how accurate it is but it was interesting none the less):

And for you chefs and foodies out there, he’s a list of traditional French spices:

And then of course, statistically, a little more than twice the amount of people smoke cigarettes in France versus the United States. With the most popular brand being Gauloises.

  4. Today, while I was at work, my sister stole my iphone and tested to see
    if it can survive a 40 foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation. My apple
    ipad is now broken and she has 83 views. I know this is entirely off topic but I had to share it with someone!

    2. PS5 additionally comes with extraordinarily
    superior video high quality which can also be far
    superior to other consoles, even Xbox X in many ways. For the reason that at
    any time when they create huge income on some objects,
    they lose on way more. BUYDVDHERE is derived from our ‘Power Sell’ store from ebay, since ebay
    has extra limitations and extra charges we determined to launch our own web site, the Buydvdhere has steadily grown as we’ve lower the middleman between Manufactories and Buyers primarily based on honesty.Since
    our launch of the web site,our goal has remained the identical: to let
    extra people get pleasure from more nice episodes at lower value, to
    ship the unforgettable buying expertise for our clients.
    You’ll find the “automatic start” button in the other,
    lower left nook, which starts the computerized mode.
    Graphics printouts from the Atari may be less than preferrred (search
    for a printer with an Epson MX/FX/LX printer series emulation mode), but these types of printers should work effective for plain text output if they can handle
    simple line print jobs.

  7. An impressive share! I have just forwarded this onto a co-worker
    who was doing a little homework on this. And he actually bought me dinner due to the fact that I stumbled
    upon it for him… lol. So allow me to reword this….
    Thanks for the meal!! But yeah, thanks for spending time to talk about this issue here on your blog.

  8. Howdy! I know this is kinda off topic but I was wondering which blog platform are you using for this website?
    I’m getting sick and tired of WordPress because I’ve had issues with hackers and I’m looking at options for another platform.

    out about this topic. You realize a whole lot its almost hard to argue with you (not that

    up. The text in your post seem to be running off
    the screen in Ie. I’m not sure if this is a formatting
