A friend of mine just sent this to me and I thought it was worth mentioning.
Seven women have died after inhaling a free perfume sample that was mailed to them.
The product was poisonous. If you receive free samples in the mail such
as lotions, perfumes, diapers etc. throw them away. The government is
afraid that this might be another terrorist act. They will not announce
it on the news because they do not want to create panic or give the
terrorists new ideas. Send this to all your friends and family members.

Please pass on to all women you know
Yeah!!!!! That's what I said!!!! Not a good thing!
Thanks Craven. I'll send that site along to my friend. I thought it might not be legit, but I thought better safe than sorry.
I just found a few more that I've heard. One I heard yesterday!!!!
They're all over the place and I personally find it frustrating because you end up not knowing what to believe.

Is there any way you can get rid of this question since it's just a hoax?
How safe are those inserts, we find in all of our magazines?
I collect all the perfume inserts, squeeze them papers in a bottle and when the bottle is full, sell them for a profit
Actually, I think it is a great way of sampling perfumes - I really dont wanna spend $50 for a perfume which does not stay on my skin for long
Guatam -- Is this different in London? In the states you can go to any perfume counter and ask them if you may try a scent. They hardest thing is to not try one from one counter, then go to the next for a sample, and the next, and the next. That's just ONE reason we have to go shopping frequently!!
Piffka - it is the same here. But the problem is that I need to know if the perfume stays on my skin for long. Like Gucci Envy stays on for abt 8 hrs or so but Cool Water for only abt 2 hrs.
Also, there are so many samples at a shop that I forget which one was which if I try them all, and ofocurse all the smells get muddled up.
Oh, and I hate cosmetic counters....
Those women!
Amazing...the same the world over.All of them standing there bored shitless and covered in 2½ kilos of make up.Really awesomely amazing.
Hebba -- pay attention! Makeup??? No, no, no. Perfume!!
Guatam -- Have you tried Gucci Rush? All those cedar and deep woods smells? It lasts. Have even thought of wearing it myself, but so far have held back.
Piffka - nah havent heard of it. Does it come in "pour homme" variety ??
He said "cosmetic counters" Piffka.
It is for men... I bought some for my son and he wears it often. A lovely scent, IMO.
Hebba! I was thinking... as an artist in wood... this would be the perfect fragrance for you -- would go with that sawdust.
