What fragrance would Groucho wear? - Page 2
Question:
Thank you muchly everyone!

One of the greatest lines ever! I don't think it's apocryphal, though it has that ring to it. Without wanting to impugn Groucho's great spontaneous wit, I think that when it came to You Bet Your Life and other shows, I believe he had some prep time with contestants beforehand, possibly making his "ad-libs" that much snappier! A fragrance for him? Paraphrasing someone else, he'd never wear a fragrance that would smell good on him. But maybe he'd do CB I Hate Perfume's Mr. Hulot's Holiday... sounds like it could be a Marx Brothers title. Dave Answer: Cigar Aficionado...and he may have, as they were both "alive" at the same time. Mike Copyright ? 2006 - 2007 www.thankhealth.com Privacy Policy
