Jessica Simpson’s Fancy Nights Perfume

Time has passed and we’re at that moment again: another celebrity is launching yet another perfume. With yet another highly elaborated retouched ad print to represent the perfume in question.

Jessica Simpson goes for a catchy name like Fancy Nights for her (already?) third perfume (all Fancy – something). It’s an evening perfume, with notes of bergamot, Egyptian papyrus (wait, what?), Indonesian patchouli, Bulgarian red rose, night-blooming jasmine. Priced at $49 for the 1.7 oz. edp, Fancy Nights is a bit too spicy in my book. I would have approved if there was a better artwork representing the perfume, but in this ad’s case, the distorted image (is it just me, or her head looks bubble-ish larger than her body?) aka the bad desktop publisher job doesn’t motivate me to pay $50 for the product itself. Do you feel different about it? I know, it should be about the scent, but the image is just as important, right? (via 1, 2)
