Pretty typical Pepé Le Pew short. Certainly not bad but nothing that special. Pepé is once again in love with a black cat that has a white stripe painted down her back. The cat does everything she can to get away from the amorous skunk but he's always one step ahead of her. If you've seen one Pepé cartoon, you know what to expect here. There's the accent, the fourth-wall breaking, the innuendos, the puns, and the little adorable hop that he does. The animation is very nice and colorful. Playful music from Milt Franklyn. Great voice work from Mel Blanc. It's an enjoyable cartoon short but not one of the best from Pepé (or Chuck Jones).

Directed by Chuck Jones, "Heaven Scent" is a good but not hilarious Warner Brothers cartoon starring the voice of Mel Blanc as our favorite French skunk: Pepe Le Pew. The plot of this cartoon is the same as in practically any other Pepe cartoon: boy tries to get girl, girl wants to be a mile away from boy.Any scenes in this film that make me laugh? There's the sign written in phony French, warning anyone to not touch the flagpole as it contains wet paint. The cat, disguised as a skunk, emits a smug expression and an eye blink after all the dogs run and hide, then a fisherman expresses himself (again in phony French) before escaping from the cat/skunk. Upon Pepe's first appearance, he sings "Strolling through the Park One Day", then as he catches up with his reluctant partner, he continues singing while smooching in rhythm."Heaven Scent" is okay, but my major disappointment with it is that the ending leaves a dangling thread that keeps me wanting more. Oh, well. We can't have everything, can we?

OK, so maybe every Pepe Le Pew cartoon has pretty much the same plot: female cat gets her back painted white, Pepe comes along and takes her for a belle femme skunk, and the attempted romance begins. For that matter, pretty much every cartoon starring each of the directors' own characters (Pepe Le Pew and Road Runner/Wile E. Coyote for Chuck Jones, Yosemite Sam and Sylvester/Tweety for Friz Freleng, Foghorn Leghorn and Tasmanian Devil for Robert McKimson; Freleng and McKimson alternated between the Speedy Gonzales cartoons). But still, you gotta admire Pepe's unyielding stamina in his quest for finding true love. Clearly, two of Jones's characters (Pepe and Wile E.) continue aiming for their goals despite the obvious fact that the goals look unattainable. True, Pepe is mostly a composite of every French stereotype - aggressive with relationships and not smelling too pleasant - but I still consider his cartoons, including this one, quite entertaining. C'est l'amour! PS: I thought that I saw a sign saying "Edouard Selzer", which would have been an in-joke referring to producer Eddie Selzer.

A cat goes out to try and buy some nice perfume for herself, but finds herself confronted by dog after dog. She flees into a nest but finds herself with a streaked of white paint on her back, attracting the attention of Pepe Le Pew.Pepe Le Pew cartoons are a strange beast. They are nearly all the same joke based around the same characters and it must be hard to keep them feeling fresh. To show that, this film is rather stale and lacks anything that made it stick out in my mind or made me laugh. The plot is the usual `cat with white paint' routine and it sticks to the formula from then on. That's not to say it isn't amusing - it is if you are happy just to accept the same cartoon replayed, but it is not fresh or sparky.Pepe is an OK character but very much a one joke one. He has a few good lines here. The cat is the usual ratty looking little puss but yet still manages to have no distinguishable character of her own!The ending is sudden and very poor but overall the short is passable and quite amusing without being laugh out loud funny. Fans of Pepe will enjoy it but it is no different from any other of his cartoons.
