    “noooooo” i scream!!

    no way in a million years that they come up with these results! CK free is the most ridiculous one in my opinion.

      wholeheartedly agreed on CK Free. it was one of the worst releases in my opinion.

      I have yet to see any fragrance award that actually rewards the best fragrances.

        Robin, I was curious, do you know how these awards work? Is there a committee of beauty editors deciding which scent is worthy of the shortlist? I’m usually drawn to these “best of” tags on products I do not know much about, like skincare and beauty, but now I wonder how it works…Since I certainly do not agree with the fragrance choices in general…

          I don’t know how CEW works, but I’m pretty sure there’s an explanation on their website.

    “Celebrity” and “Prestige”? Veering towards doublespeak…

      Prestige is any fragrance sold in a department store — as opposed to “mass market”.

    I am totally shocked with the finalists.

    Totally overreacted.

      They’re about what I’d expect…the big sellers for last year.

    don’t be shocked – it’s probably a panel of beauty editors fromsuch trashy fare as OK!/Hello!/and any number of UK weekly gossip rags. In the UK it’s either super grim mainstream/Z list celeb scents that are popular or the ultra niche. There’s not a huge middle ground of well done mainstream popular scents.
