    true, the most sensual accessory, as long if it’s not made by Vera Wang. Just imo!

    The ad annoys me because it feigns authenticity and features the very real Vera in almost cinema verite style, but the product is artless, highest profit-to-cost margin and there’s nothing authentic about it.

    Vera Wang lost my regard when she released the Kohl’s line where all the “jewel” details looked like they had been hot glue-gunned onto the fabric and everything was cut like a burlap sack. Price-conscious consumers needn’t be sold garbage, Vera.
    And now she has a perfume with the glue-gun jewels stuck all over the bottle. Well done.

      I have not seen any of her items for Kohls — too bad if they are that shoddy.

        IMO much shoddier than other designer’s lower end products. Makes Daisy Fuentes’ Kohl’s line look positively haute couture.

    I think that Vera Wang is actually produced by Coty, along with a number of other celebrity fragrances. Are any of the Coty fragrances worth having? I see several of them at discount pretty regularly and hesitate to buy them ….

      Gosh, yes, Coty makes any number of great fragrances. Balenciaga Paris and Love, Chloe were the 1st two that came to mind, but hardly the only ones, and for that matter the original Vera Wang was a great scent even if not at all my style.

    Ya, all the VW stuff at Kohls is crap, just another imo. She went all Brit Spears Radiance bottle on us. It’s like maybe make a fume for someone over 15???? Who buys this stuff?
