Why do I suspect this will be either unpleasant or deeply boring? If ONLY men could smell like James Bond…
Of course, a real spy would not want to have a memorable fragrance. (I am not sure who the mole is, and our photograph surveillance shows nothing but someone on stilts in a holloween costume but who ever it was, wore way too much Amouge Woman),
However, rumour has it that Sean Connery wears Jicky.
If only!
Apple? Sounds interesting if it is actually in there! We’ll see if they’ve managed to formulate something that’s as sexy and dangerous as Mr. Bond!
Apple is so ubiquitous that it would be hard to make it sexy and dangerous, that’s for sure!
So, will this make me totally irresistible to women, entitle me to a jet-set lifestyle and inject an element of adventure into my humdrum life? If so, I’ll take 100 bottles, please!
Actually, alot of woman would think that you are stuck in a 16 year old’s fantasy of a playbot, and like Bond, can not commit for more than 30 minutes and who engages in useless high risk behavior,..
On the other hand, we would not mind a quick ride in the sports car. or your picking up our gambling tabs.
To say nothing of contracting over 500 sexually transmitted diseases, 7 of which are only found in SHARKS…
Ack!
To say nothing of the very nasty casual racism of the early films.
Will there be any secret note?
It’s funny b/c judging by the notes, it is not at all what James Bond would wear.
When do M and Q get perfumes? Those would have to be more interesting than Bond’s.
No apples on my man tyvm
There’s NOTHING dangerous about apples! Watch out for that paring knife, that can really do some damage..
Sadly, my fear is that this fragrance will make a gal feel shaken, but not stirred.
You’d think the packaging could be a little more clever or original. In the old old Bond movies he had a sterling silver cigarette case…maybe they could have borrowed from that.
I´m in for the notes and the bottle….
My suspicion? This will be, with luck, of Beckham quality.
Else we might be faced with something akin to the Ferrari brand.
Let’s hope for the best!
Personally, I think James Bond wears Or Black, or Puredistance M… this one sounds more like Emmett Fitzhume from “Spies Like Us”.
So what would James actually smell like? A well tailored suit, plus a martini accord, some gun smoke, and whatever fragrance rubbed off on him from the girl he most recently had passionate lovemaking with.
This captures the mojo of my little pony meets the carebears.
