Pup Culture: Scratch and Sniff

The high-end London pet shop Mungo & Maud thought it necessary to commission perfumer Lyn Harris to devise a scent for dogs, and she came up with Petite Amande, a piquant fragrance "inspired by nature with notes of French blackcurrant, Tunisian neroli, mimosa, and violet leaf on a base of sweet vanilla bourbon with a little almond." The concoction sells for $78.60 for a 50ml glass bottle (Lalique?). The pet shop's creative director (hey, that IS high-end) hopes the perfume will "refresh the dog and appeal to the human nose." Frankly, we love the stink of a dog, and find shampoo refreshes Queenie's DO (doggie odor) just fine, thank you. Plus, we'll take a big ol' dog's nose over a human's anyday. (Reuters via Agenda Inc)
