Loved the looks of this purse immediately but it had a horrible I couldn't tolerate. I aired it out for a week outside (propped open) but still couldn't tolerate the smell. I added a dryer sheet to each inside compartment and aired it longer outside. PERFECT! The purse is really attractive and was so worth the time.  It's easy to carry, and it brings a lot of compliments.  I would buy it all over again!
