Talk:List of celebrity endorsed perfumes
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This list was originally part of the Perfume article but was spawned out because it was getting to unwieldy within the context of the original article. Wjousts 22:17, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Organization
If somebody feels up to it, it might be useful to organize this list, perhaps into sections for actors, models, sports people, etc. Wjousts 14:08, 6 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] suspected hoax entry
I am removing the following entry, as a little research suggests that it may be a hoax:
- Marilyn Manson: Smells like Children
Smells Like Children is the title of a Marilyn Manson album; I have been unable to find any reliable source suggesting that a perfume by this name exists. -- 192.250.34.161 14:52, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
- You may be right. A Google search brings up links like this one [1] but it's from 2005 and only suggests that:
- he is in final negotiations with a major cosmetics company to launch his own perfume brand
- But the fact that there are no online perfume sellers popping up suggests that it never happened. And the only link mentioning a name for the hypothetical fragrance actually references this article! Wjousts 21:59, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Sources
What makes a good source for this list? For example, the source given for Julio Iglesias is actually just a link to a shopping site ( AOL Shopping). Such a link does prove that the fragrance in question exists, but should probably be avoided because of the potential for spamming the list and the tendency for shopping sites to change frequently.
