This limited edition perfume smells just like French Fries

If French Fries is your ultimate favourite snack, then this news will definitely put a smile across your face. Idaho Potatoes launched their limited edition perfume named ‘Frites’ which actually smells like French Fries. How cool is that! The Idaho Potato Commission is a marketing board that represents the potato growers of the U.S. state of Idaho.

Their Instagram post read- “Introducing Frites by Idaho, a tantalizing fragrance inspired by the irresistible scent of french fries. Uniquely crafted from a blend of essential oils and distilled Idaho® Potatoes, this fragrance will invite memories of fry-tastic days gone by. Get yours today, while supplies last!”

There is no doubt that their special French Fries perfume got ‘out of stock’ in no time. They even started a giveaway a week back in which 10 lucky winners would get ‘Frites’ free of cost. The giveaway was launched especially for the Valentine’s week and required participants to just follow the Idaho Potatoes Instagram page and comment on the post.

The unique giveaway got popular in no time and has garnered more than 5000 likes. The post received mixed reactions from the audience, with some people loving the idea while some people thinking it to be a prank. Here are some of the comments made on the giveaway posted by Idaho Potatoes on Instagram.
