(Not The) Scent Of A Woman
Drug Store | Newton, NJ, USA | Right | November 11, 2011
(A female customer is looking at the perfume display.)
Customer: “Excuse me, it says that this smaller bottle of [brand] perfume is the same price as this larger bottle of [brand] perfume. But they are the same product.”
Me: “Actually, this larger one is men’s cologne and this smaller one is women’s perfume.”
Customer: “No, no, they’re both for women. You’re looking at the wrong one.”
Me: “No, ma’am, if you look right here, this larger one says ‘por homme’ on it. That means ‘for men’.”
Customer: “No, they’re both for women. See how this one is light blue? That means for girls.”
Me: *giving up* “My mistake, ma’am.”
(On the bright side, the next time she came in, she smelled like a man.)
