  • Have you ever wondered if you were pronouncing a particular brand correctly? With many fragrance brands and luxury brands having French influence, we thought it would be a great idea to invite Hugo Jacomet from the Parisian Gentleman to offer instruction.

      @@Franeeky Not if you know the language itself and you hear reviewers trying to pronounce a name and it is totaly off. They school us about the fragrances or houses and they should know how to pronounce a name the way it's supposed to be.
      Imagine someone who doens't speak English and tries to pronounce your name, or just a centence and it is not even close to how it's supposed to be. For example, I've never come across a foraigner who's able to pronounce my name correctly. True; it's funny, but in this case reviewers should do there homework. It's like taking French or Italian class but you got a teacher who doesn't know the language.

      The idea that a non-native speaker is going to be able to pronounce words in another language perfectly or even get their tongue to move in the correct manner isn't realistic. I have known many people for whom English is not their first language and they will NEVER sound like a native speaker when they pronounce anything. I simply grant them grace and understand their intention or ask for clarification. I loved the video! Some words involved a guttural sound that doesn't exist in English which makes it difficult. Perfect example is Guerlain...not happening lol, but I'll buy it.

    I love Hugo´s testimony, I shared it to several friends... regarding French pronunciation, I think one must make an effort to pronounce words as closely to the original as possible. I don´t know if English has the same pronounciation rule as in Spanish (my native toungue), where you should pronounce foreign names as if read in Spanish, which I find grotesque. So, thank you M. Jacomet for helping the anglophone´s learn how to properly pronounce in French.

    • @simplyrowen
      @simplyrowen 2 года назад +1

      I don’t know if English has a *rule* per se, in that regard, but I think it’s just the normal thing most people do around the world. When you only speak your native language, you have absolutely nowhere else to pull from, so you read it like it’s in your language.
      Everyone I’ve met from around the world does this. However, I agree with you, we should make an effort to pronounce it correctly and respect where the words come from by at least researching and attempting it.

    • @Zeeangelofdeath
      @Zeeangelofdeath Год назад

      But that’s actually more accurate to pronounce as if it’s in Spanish than in America English because Spanish for the most part still retains its European pronunciation because of its influence it has had from its neighbors

For what it’s worth, I do love all things French and think the language is beyond beautiful. And I think it goes without saying that American women are huge customers of French perfume. My personal favorite is Chanel. Enjoyed this video ver much. Thank you.

  • @Slivings911
    @Slivings911 2 года назад +5

    I live in the Deep South where there are still a lot of old French place names, but nobody pronounces them according to French rules. The town in Mississippi called Gautier is pronounced GO-shay, Saucier is pronounced SO-shay. D’Iberville is pronounced Dee-EYE-ber-ville. In New Orleans Chartres street is pronounced CHAR-ters street. There are many examples. However, Mobile Alabama must always be correctly pronounced Mo-BEEL. Once the Anglos moved in they largely refused to pronounce French.

    So glad my high school French came in handy! (32 now) I’m not great at speaking French but at least now there’s confirmation that I did not commit any blunder with these names. 😅 Just need to work on my “r” a bit more. As an Eastern European with quite a difficult name to pronounce, I have an enormous respect for all brands and people who care about staying true to their roots or/and are paying tribute to a culture/important figure by pronouncing a name correctly (or as close as possible).

PS I just ordered Hugo's book " The Parisian Gentleman" and cannot wait to read it.

    The sound of the name Gautier in the French pronunciation always makes me laugh as that phonic sound in Turkish mean to 'eat arse'. Yemek is the verb 'to eat' in Turkish, and the word Gutt is the Turkish equivalent of 'arse'. So Gautier is 'eat arse'.... (or ass for the Americans).

    According to the sensational book "The Ghost Perfumer", mainly plotted over the shady Creed brand and Olivier Creed's dirty tricks to snatch formulas of famous perfumers (i.e. Bourdon's Cool Water iterations) , the Montale brand name was found by a shady duo in 90's, at a time when the Italian footballer Vincenzo Montella was quite famous. And they simply liked the luxury sounding aura of the name, and come up with Montale. (And Pierre Montale is a fake name to match the brand's fake story, originally the founder is Pierre-Louis Repellin, a fraud-convicted person in the industry due to copying a Jean Paul Gaultier fragrance and bottle for a pre-Montale brand he attempted first).
