Guerlain must be relieved: Shalimar is not on the list (gasp, horror!) but the big push for La Petite Robe Noire has been a success. Thierry Wasser will get a New Year's bonus, I bet

Interesting. Thanks for this.

Can't believe there were 3 different Hugo Boss fragrances in the men's list. Marketing does work wonders!

Interesting, thank you! About twenty years ago, a friend visiting from overseas gave me a bottle of Tresor. I loved it, but never bought another bottle after using that one up. I'm afraid to sniff it now!

I'm really surprised by the results in the mens section, 3 Boss fragrances? Really?

Shows that the French are just as prone to be influenced by advertising as we lesser mortals!

Interesting. I don't own anything from the mens list in my wardrobe.

Furrypine, you are right; I've been in France for the past couple months and have seen a ton of advertising for La Petite Robe Noire, in Sephora, TV commercials, internet ads that play before videos, etc. Last week outside the Guerlain boutique on the Champs-Élysées I saw the giant snowglobe fixture advertisement they've put on the sidewalk for it: plays music, lights up, has movable figurines inside, the whole nine yards. Apparently all of it is paying off for them.
