I really wish I could give this purse 5 stars. The color was great & the style was exactly what I was looking for. Unfortunately, I never got to use it due to the horrible smell. I tried to air it out, but was unsuccessful and after contacting the company & discovering this is normal for their purses, I now know I would not purchase any of their purses again. Their response, &#34;usually the smell leaves the bag within 1 to 2 weeks after the bag has been aired out the smell should not persist after that time. If the bag still smells after it has been aired out then the bag is defective.&#34;
