    Thank you for providing this! As a longtime jasmine lover and Alien wearer I really appreciate it. Now this should be a perfume commercial….

      Agree, much more entertaining than most. Rather doubt it is that “festive” to pick jasmine petals for a living, but it makes a pretty picture.

    I can’t believe it’s only been 10 years, I feel like I have been wearing Alien forever. Thanks for the video.

    I wish they would have done Alien in a special red bottle, to go along with the Angel one. Alien would look great in a deep burgundy color.
