Alright, alright, let’s talk about this… uh… Tom Ford… thingy, yeah, Jasmin Rouge. Sounds fancy, don’t it? Like somethin’ them city folks would spray on themselves.
So, what’s the big deal with this Jasmin Rouge, you ask? Well, from what I gather, it’s a smell-good, a perfume. And not just any smell-good, mind you. This one’s supposed to be all… what’s the word… vo-lup-tu-ous. Yeah, that’s it. Means it’s strong, I guess, and kinda… you know… sexy-like.
They say it smells like jasmine, this flower. Now, I ain’t no flower expert, but I reckon jasmine smells pretty good. This ain’t just plain ol’ jasmine, though. It’s somethin’ called sambac jasmine. Sounds fancy again, doesn’t it? They say it’s the best kind, real precious and hard to find. Like them gold teeth them city slickers wear. Makes it sound expensive. And this perfume sure is, lemme tell ya. Costs more than a whole pig!
- Strong smell, real strong. They call it “bold”. Means it hits you right in the nose, I guess.
- Smells like flowers, but not just any flowers. Special kind, this sambac somethin’ or other.
- Expensive as all get out. Don’t be wastin’ your hard-earned money on this stuff unless you got a lot to spare.
People say it’s like walkin’ in a fancy garden, you know, the kind with them big ol’ flowers and maybe a fountain or two. Not like my garden, that’s for sure, mine just got potatoes and cabbages. But this… this is supposed to be at dusk, when the sun’s goin’ down and everything gets all kinda… dreamy. They use words like “seductive” and “decadent.” Big words for a smell, if you ask me.
This Tom Ford fella, whoever he is, he sure knows how to make a fuss about a smell-good. He puts all sorts of stuff in it, not just that fancy jasmine. Some of it’s natural, they say, but some of it’s made in a lab, you know, like them pills the doctor gives ya. And some of them natural things, they’re hard to get, real rare. That’s why it costs so much, I reckon. You’re payin’ for the fancy name and the hard-to-find stuff, not just the smell.
Now, they tell me this Jasmin Rouge perfume, it’s been… what’s the word… dis-con-tin-ued. That means they ain’t makin’ it no more. So, if you really want it, you gotta go huntin’ for it, and you’re gonna pay even more, I betcha. It’s like them old coins, the older they get, the more they cost.
So, what do I think of this Tom Ford Jasmin Rouge? Well, it sounds like a mighty fancy smell-good, for sure. Too fancy for me, probably. I reckon a good bar of soap does the job just fine. But if you got the money and you like smellin’ like a fancy garden at dusk, well, go ahead and splurge. Just don’t come cryin’ to me when your pocketbook’s empty.
I heard you can buy this stuff at somethin’ called… Sephora. Sounds like another one of them fancy city places. They say this perfume is bold and floral, unveils the decadence of jasmine, like stepping into a luxurious garden at dusk . Full of big words, them city folks. All I know is, it better smell good enough to raise the dead for that kind of money.
And remember, just because somethin’s expensive don’t mean it’s better. Sometimes the simplest things are the best. Like a good cup of coffee, or the smell of rain on dry dirt. But that’s just my two cents. You city folks can do whatever you please.
