Question:
I went to pick my Mom up today ( we were going to lunch and birthday shopping for my soon to be 16 years old daughter) and as she opened the door for me I caught this aroma of sweet,sweeeeeeet pineapple juice. I realized after about 5 minutes it was her perfume. I asked her what she was wearing and she said why? Don't you like it? (I actually hated it but what do you say) I told her I thought it was a little sweet....turns out my Mom not only purchased a bottle of Brittney Spears Fantasy but she paid full price in a department store! It was an interesting day with my Cuir des Russie fighting it out with the Fantasy!

Answer:
LOL! If your Mom lost one, I hope this Mom finds one!

Answer:
Aw that's cute. I'm glad your Mom has the independence of mind to get whatever appeals. I have to say that I haven't bought a celebrity fragrance since Catherine deNeuve brought out hers many, many moons ago. Why? I don't know. Too young for Elizabeth Taylor, too old for Sarah Jessica Parker, not interested in Shania Twaine (sp?) and sorta grossed out by Brittany et al.I'm probably missing a few nice things - the price of snobbery and preconceived notions, I guess. But if I could be like Catherine deNeuve....let's just say, if she was still advertising Chanel I'd have me a few more!!!!!

Answer:
don't feel bad! my mom does strange things like that ALL of the time! i too, have to give her kudos for trying something new. however, you might want to politely tell her about the deals on perfume MINIS you can get on ebay for a fraction of the price so that she can try the fragrance and not have to commit to a whole 3.4 or 3.3 ounces! you might also want to excitedly talk about some other frags that you think might suit her a bit better.

Answer:
If your mom likes it, where's the problem? I just don't go along with this you have to be this age to wear this, you have to be a man to wear this, etc. I'm in my second childhood. I don't care for Brittney Spears, but I'd be glad to wear Miami Glow by JLo.

Hmm I remember smelling Miami Glow at the airport and it being reallly nice. Please refresh my memory on this fragrance!
Hhaha I wish my mom was like yours! She HATES anything teeny-boppery, like Paris Hilton, Jlo and such worth. Althought she doesn't mind Curious that much, but she still says she's to old for that one. You should just tell your mom to return it, Macy's let me return fragrances with a few sprays gone (more like 20 sprays for me!)

Answer:
Well, at least your mom wears perfume. My whole birth family (parents and sibs) gag, choke, and break out in big purple spots if they catch so much as a whiff on anyone, anywhere! It's like a familial neurosis. Makes me sad....

Answer:
Now that B's shaved off her locks, exposing her head hide, maybe she'll release Cuir de Brittney. Gross, eh?

Answer:
Ya know, I'm not fond of Britney and her ilk, and I don't own any of her fragrances...and I wouldn't buy one full price even if I wanted to, but I'm glad your mom's found something she likes--maybe you can talk her into something better once she gets over the Fantasy?
