“I like Rihanna, but this just doesn’t work. She is just not a J’adore woman, maybe Poison. They chose her just because she sells. Her image has nothing to do with the spirit of this fragrance,” Sweet rus voiced.

“Nothing will EVER compare to Charlize Theron’s first J’adore campaign from 2004 by Nick Knight which will forever be etched in my memory forever. It was so sultry, so seductive, so expensive-looking and was such a mood. This massively pales in comparison. What a letdown!” sighed vogue28.
