A man hanging from the bottle though might be unpractical for two reasons: obscuring the actual product and implying that the product alone can do it all, when the industry wants to project the idea that the person carrying the liquid does the attracting part (in this case, seeing oneself as a reflected vision of Perfumeshrinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06222733129203280662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3792393342962796253.post-53787209044093686462012-07-21T17:56:22.653+01:002012-07-21T17:56:22.653+01:00Maggie,
