perfume brands
does anyone else think it makes the product sound cheaper when its endorsed by a celebrity, actress or model? i think a perfume sounds more classic if it doesn't have "by sarah jessica parker" tacked on the end.

I imagine
whenever Angelina Jolie farts, a husky voiced lackie says "The new fragrance from Awn-gelina Zholie"

It does sound more classic without the "Sarah Jessica Parker" tag....
...and probably smells less like horse-shit too.

Yes
And a lot of the time, the implication is that said 'celebrity' has personally formulated the fragrance/shampoo/other cosmetic product. Of course, the fact of the matter is that a team of white coated scientists have been beavering away in a lab somewhere to produce the new chemical concoction, and the marketing people have meanwhile been looking for some famous person to say it's theirs to make gullible idiots buy it.

Not that I'm cynical about such things, of course.
