They shouldn't.

Alex GibneyI'm always concerned about marketing or commercial philosophies. I can't feel good about having my name on a bottle of perfume that comes from a factory making perfume with all the same ingredients as every other perfume.

But how is a perfume supposed to reflect me? How is a sweatshirt supposed to represent me?
