Amanda the Great by Amanda El-Dweek for January 08, 2023

I love Dan’s answer in the first panel. I’ll have to remember that one.

And thus, Dan has proven that he is the,’ The Amanda Whisperer!’

mhm … he KNOWS…

It’s just chemistry. If they have a sample, they should be able to replicate the contents in the correct balances. The problems would arise from discrete compounds that won’t form without knowing the proper prior process. They have electronic detectors that can detect the scents better than the human nose, to get it more than close enough. Horrifically expensive, though, one imagines, if done properly.

Just buying a little hope. Like the lottery.

So what scent was that? My favorite scent is Opium by Yves St. Laurent. I never really wear perfume any more, though and I still have a bunch of it. I think it is still available, though.

Hmm…Like paint matching.

Totally scamy.

And then there is the big “scam” of re-releasing nostalgic scents for those of us with disposable income. I bought some “Love’s Baby Soft” a couple of years ago, and it was reformulated to an unrecognizable disaster.
