Dolce & Gabbana launches $108 dog cologne, raising hackles of some vets and pet owners
CBSN
Fashion house Dolce & Gabbana has launched a new alcohol-free perfume for dogs called "Fefé" in honor of Domenico Dolce's poodle, but not all vets and pet owners agree it's safe or appropriate.
The perfume costs 99 euros ($108) for 100 milliliters (3.4 ounces) and has been certified suitable for animal use. It follows a Safe Pet Cosmetics protocol designed to ensure a degree of safety of cosmetic products for animals comparable to that required for humans, Dolce & Gabbana said.
"Through a compliance recognition to this protocol granted by Bureau Veritas Italia, participating companies demonstrate their sensitivity in creating products that ensure the safety and respect of the animal, in accordance with established standards," the company said in the statement issued for the launch of the perfume.
