We just wanted the scent of French fries, but how do you stuff that into a bottle? We even tried using cooking oil just to be creative.

But where do you even start with a French fry fragrance? We don't make perfume and this is the first time we had ever even considered anything like this. People on our social media really love French fries, not just to eat, but to talk about too.

It's 1.7oz of fragrance so you can get a good few squirts of perfume out of it.
