I have been barraged with advertisements lately regarding cheap/inexpensive
imitations of expensive brand-name perfumes, often offering imitation
jewelry if I bought it.  They have ranged in price from $1.25 up to $19.95.
I am getting tired of the advertising (both on TV and thru direct mail),
and was wondering if anyone had ever tried any of this stuff, and if it
didn't smell like old turpentine or something.  The MOTOS likes the perfume
called Opium, which lists at about $80/oz, but thru these guys I seem to be
able to get it from $9.95/oz., or so.

Anybody know anything about this?  If enough people mail to me, I will post
a summary.
