Bring Back Frankincense & Mirth For Women
Jovan Perfume Company
Dear Sirs:
Many years ago I purchased and wore a perfume by Jovan called Frakincense & Mirth for women it was the best ever and I have not worn another perfume since they quit making it. I have talked to many other women who also would like them to bring it back. I would pay the money to be able to have that fragrance again --- it was beyond great and it did not adversely effect my sinuses as so many others do. The fragrance was great but I think many people just would not try it because of the name. Please bring it back and call it something else and I know you would make your money on that fragrance don't change a thing with the fragrance just modify the name for better sales.
Thank You Candy |

Hi everyone - well, I went online to find out how to start an internet/electronic petition and found a great site. (url above). Candy, since you started this thread, did you want to start the petition? We should also try to find out the name of the person at Jovan who should receive it once it is completed. The CEO, head of marketing, sales or advertising? |

| Hello Ladies, Now is the time go to ipetitions.com and search, Bring Back Frankincents and Myrrh Perfune for Women by Coty and sign the petition. I also, emailed the coty perfume company at, TalkToUs@Cotyinc.com and pleaded with them to bring it back. So, if you email them maybe they will start to understand that we cannot go on any longer without that intoxicating perfect fragrance. They are idle on such a money maker! |

I would really love to have some more.Do not change the formular. Cologne spray mist. Contains SD Alcohol 39-C Propellant 12/114, FRANKINCENSE AND MYRRH PERFUME,COLOR. This is off the box. |

| I too loved the fragrance. I always, always got compliments when wearing it. Although I wear the white musk now and people still notice my scent, I would love to have the frankincense and myrrh back, it was so fresh and unique. |

| I totally agree -- I got more compliments on that particular perfume more than any other, except for lotion. I loved that perfume -- they do need to rename it or something -- it was the best. I used it up, and then I found they discontinued it, I was so upset. It wasn't too sweet, but they made it perfect. Myrrh by itself smells like soap -- it is the Frankincense that makes it sweet -- but the recipe Jovan used was just right. Bring it back! Where's the petition? Sign me up! |

I completely agree. Frankincense & Myrrh was my signature fragrance (and I guess, a lot of other people's too, LOL)...
I'd be one happy woman to be able to buy it again. |

| Do you think JOVAN would consider bringing it back? I loved it back in 1977. It was calming and sensual. There's nothing else like it...believe me I have been searching! |

| I surely hope Jovan will bring it back i did write them an email requesting them to bring back Frankincense & Mirth for women. If all of you out there would email Jovan, as i did, maybe we could get their attention as to how improtant that fragrance is to us. And please don't change a thing is was perfect the first time! Happy writing to all. Candy |

| Attn: Nora and anyone else, Frankincense & Mirth (or Myrrh) is not available to me at perfumes counter.com because i do not have a credit card and besides they only have fake stuff. I have emailed those people to send me an order form for snail mail and they won't even email me back or anything. I gave them my address phone,etc; they just want an order from email with a credit card for fake perfume or you do not exist. I say it again BRING BACK FRANKINCENSE & MIRTH for Women! that i may go to a local department store and buy it with cash. PLEASE!!!!! Candy P.O. Box 604 lava hot springs, ID 83246 |

| Thank you Shirley and to everyone for your comments. I appeal to the Jovan Perfume Company to get on board with bringing back Frankincense & Mirth (or Myrrh). They are missing a huge market with their loyal users and new users to come. I for one would pay anything to have it back in my life again, it has been far too long....Candy rxkandy@yahoo.com |

| I agree (it is spelled Myrrh)!!! Bring it back!!!!!!!! If you do, it will definitely sell!!! It was also my signature fragrance in high school and many times I had to give the last little bit left in the bottle to my friends because they didn't have any allowance to buy their own. I loved it and really want it back!!! |

| I wore this perfume in the 70's and it was and will always be my perfume. All others pale in comparison. Maybe an internet petition signed by all the women around the world that want this wonderful scent again. |

| This was the greatest perfume ever put out. I got soooo many compliments about it. Pleazzzzzz bring it and call it Glory. I think it would sell like hotcakes as we say it in the south. I will buy it and I will promote its sales for you. It was a big mistake to have ever stopped production of this cologne. |

Hi Lissa,
You don't know how much I'd love to be able to tell you...
I may not have any but, I still can remember what it smells like... If only I could send you what was in it... I would be a loyal customer as always with that fragrance. If any one is interested to chat with me I'm rxkandy@yahoo.com...Candy |

Reply to Lissa,
No one has a sample left anymore and besides Coty has a patten on it. This is why we need Coty to bring it back and this is why everyone needs to email Cotyinc.com and hound them until they bring it back. I have... But, I am only one person. I also will go house to house like your personal perfune party to sell it anything to get it back..best of luck to everyone and go for it!.....Candy |

| LOL! Okay, they may have a patent on that specific recipe, but I can make something that is 99% the same. I'm working on a perfume for the fabulous Taylor Dayne at this moment. I love these kind of puzzles tho and would be happy to try to come close to what the original smell was. Can anyone tell me what the ingredients were? Meaning, what are the notes? Lissa |

Wow, you rock Lori way to go! I don't know how you ever came up with that address for the research but, Wow!
You go Lisa and yes how sweet it would be... I don't know how you'd match it without a sample but, I could surely be able to smell your sample to let you know how close you are. You would become a She-hero! my email is rxkandy@yahoo.com Candy |

| I wouldn't buy it on ebay, unless you want it for nostalgia ... But not to wear. I LOVED it also in the 70's. A few years after it was discontinued, I was in a pharmacy (in St. Louis, MO.). I noticed a few boxes behind the counter, high up on the shelf. I mentioned them to the pharmacist. She said she had a few more too. She dusted them off and I bought them all. I was thrilled. Unfortunately, they didn't last long. The consistency became very thick, the color became darker and they lost all of their fragrance/notes. Please let me know if anyone finds anything current with similar noted. Thanks! |
