Confusing. At any rate, agree it would be a nice change to see celebs turn their noses up at perfume deals. Or better yet start dissing each other's fragrances.

Both Owen and McGregor come across as proper actor types. I guess everyone has their price?<br /><br />My evaluation instructor would be pleased with the 'coherence' of the Lancôme/Owen brand though - it looks like they might have fashioned the bottle after his nose.Elizanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8125354955146250762.post-2872223718253201982009-11-23T05:38:14.221-07:002009-11-23T05:38:14.221-07:00Nathan Branch:

I didn't see "P.S. I Love You" but I did manage to catch "Dear Frankie" and it was schmaltzy beyond belief. <br /><br />Secondly, he "needs" a perfume and he's been telling hs publicist to "get on that"? Crikey. This is exactly why most celebrity fragrances are so bad. They just want their name on a bottle to satisfy the ego-driven notion that their fame is large enough to warrant a product launch: "See? I have a cologne. I'm bigger than you are, so sod off!" <br /><br />Ay yi yi.<br /><br />And no, (IMO) Butler isn't yet in the same league as Owen and McGregor, but I didn't even realize Owen and McGregor had fragrances, so . . . huh. There it is.Nathan Branchhttp://www.nathanbranch.comnoreply@blogger.com
