Circling back: Last time, we told you about how Dior had introduced perfume for babies, Bonne Étoile, that costs $230. We asked if you had a newborn and someone gave you a $230 baby fragrance for a gift—with a gift receipt—what would you do?
No less than 91.3% of you said you’d exchange the fragrance for something else, while just 7.1% of you said you’d keep the baby fragrance and use it on your baby, and 1.6% didn’t know or weren’t sure.
