This is an ordinary fragrance wrapped in unsupported pheromone promises, aggressive subscription offers and a complaint record showing that cancellations and refunds can become a fight.

The company\u2019s current website describes Goda For Her and Goda For Him as pheromone-infused fragrances and links the products to attraction, attention, confidence and long-lasting performance.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The site looks polished and active. It displays large customer counts, high ratings, \u201cas seen on\u201d messaging, testimonial panels and claims of clinical or third-party support. It also advertises a 30-day guarantee and offers recurring deliveries through a subscription system.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"mwtad1532449680\" class=\"gas_fallback-ad_309686-ad_309691-placement_400597\" style=\"margin-top: 30px;margin-bottom: 30px;\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7750719144850257\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-7750719144850257\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"6935453015\" \ndata-ad-format=\"auto\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The business model is built around selling a powerful story, not proving a special fragrance technology. Social-media ads create the fantasy, inflated trust signals reduce hesitation, and recurring deliveries increase what one impulsive purchase can cost. That combination deserves more weight than a slick landing page or a handful of enthusiastic testimonials.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Goda promises<\/h3>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A pheromone-infused scent that works with the wearer\u2019s body chemistry.<\/li>\n<li>More attention, compliments and perceived attraction.<\/li>\n<li>A fragrance that lasts for 8\u201312 hours.<\/li>\n<li>Confidence and a stronger personal presence.<\/li>\n<li>Easy returns and a low-risk first purchase.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div id=\"mwtad4084800594\" class=\"mwtadp3 mwtadentity-placement\" style=\"margin-top: 30px;margin-bottom: 30px;\"><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7750719144850257\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\"\r\n     data-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-7750719144850257\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"5910219726\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><\/div><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some of those statements are ordinary fragrance claims. Longevity, scent preference and confidence are subjective but testable by the buyer. The pheromone narrative is different because it suggests a biological attraction effect that the company has not convincingly demonstrated.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What the company is in practical terms<\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Goda is not a nonexistent store. It sells physical fragrance products, has a working support portal, publishes terms and has a large review footprint. The central question is therefore not whether every bottle is fake. It is whether the marketing and billing experience justify trusting the business.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The seller identifies its legal entity as <strong>UMAEZ LLC<\/strong>, 5830 E 2nd St, Ste 7000, #14589, Casper, Wyoming 82609. The same company and address appear in trademark records, so there is no sound basis to call the legal identity or Wyoming address fake. A separate El Monte, California address appears in fulfillment and return complaints, which can reflect a warehouse or returns operation rather than a second headquarters.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The original godaperfume.com domain dates to April 2022, and the company has operated long enough to build a substantial review history. The evidence points to a real product wrapped in exaggerated science and a recurring-order system that many buyers say they did not knowingly choose or could not easily stop.<\/p><div id=\"mwtad2765570117\" class=\"mwtadp4 mwtadentity-placement\" style=\"margin-top: 30px;margin-bottom: 30px;\"><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7750719144850257\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\"\r\n     data-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-7750719144850257\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"5910219726\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><\/div>\n\n\n<div id=\"mwtad179170198\" class=\"gas_fallback-ad_309748-ad_309691-placement_400590\" style=\"margin-top: 30px;margin-bottom: 30px;\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7750719144850257\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-7750719144850257\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"3906789406\" \ndata-ad-format=\"auto\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How the Goda Perfume Sales Funnel Works<\/h2>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 1: A social media ad promises an emotional result<\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The ad is rarely just about notes, projection or how the perfume smells. It focuses on the reaction the wearer is supposed to receive: strangers looking twice, partners becoming more attentive or an ex suddenly showing interest.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That framing sells an outcome people cannot measure at checkout. It also encourages buyers to interpret normal social interactions as evidence that the perfume has a special effect.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 2: \u201cPheromone-infused\u201d gives ordinary fragrance a scientific aura<\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The word pheromone sounds biological and precise. On Goda\u2019s site it is paired with phrases such as pH-adaptive, natural chemistry and the science of attraction. The result is an impression that the product has a proven mechanism beyond simply smelling pleasant.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Researchers have studied human chemical communication for years, but no bottled human sex pheromone has been conclusively shown to make other people attracted to the wearer in the reliable, direct way these ads imply. A nice scent may affect mood or confidence; that is not the same claim.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 3: Testimonials turn coincidence into proof<\/h3>\n\n\n<div id=\"mwtad3807197674\" class=\"mwtadp5 mwtadentity-placement\" style=\"margin-top: 30px;margin-bottom: 30px;\"><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7750719144850257\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\"\r\n     data-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-7750719144850257\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"8560433799\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><\/div><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Goda publishes stories about husbands becoming more affectionate, strangers asking about the scent and wearers receiving unusual attention. These anecdotes are emotionally effective because they sound personal and specific.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They cannot show that a pheromone ingredient caused the reaction. The fragrance itself, the wearer\u2019s confidence, the setting, expectations and simple coincidence are all uncontrolled variables.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 4: Large counts and familiar logos manufacture certainty<\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The website currently claims more than 1,000,000 customers or products sold in different sections, high average ratings and thousands of verified reviews. It also uses an \u201cAs Seen On\u201d presentation.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The BBB\u2019s advertising review specifically challenged Goda to substantiate claims involving media exposure, customer counts, ranking, efficacy, guarantees and testimonials. According to the BBB profile, the company did not adequately substantiate, modify or discontinue the challenged advertising.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 5: A discount can lead into recurring deliveries<\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The recurring plan is not buried only in a policy page. The Goda For Her page currently loads with a two-bottle bundle selected and an active Shopify subscription plan. Directly below the purchase button, the page stated: \u201c2 Goda for her refill at \u20ac29\/ea every month.\u201d The one-time alternative appeared as a separate \u201cBUY ONCE &#8211; NO SAVINGS\u201d option.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"mwtad2046993342\" class=\"mwtadp6 mwtadentity-placement\" style=\"margin-top: 30px;margin-bottom: 30px;\"><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7750719144850257\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\"\r\n     data-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-7750719144850257\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"4034304343\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><\/div><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Goda\u2019s terms describe subscription intervals that can recur every 28, 30, 45 or 60 days, with additional schedules available through customer service. Billing continues until the customer cancels. The subscription is therefore disclosed, but the discounted default steers shoppers toward repeat billing while making the one-time purchase look like the worse deal.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A shopper concentrating on a discount, bundle or buy-one-get-one offer can easily focus on the immediate price rather than the refill line. Complaint records repeatedly describe buyers who say they expected one order and later saw another charge or shipment. The live checkout design makes those complaints credible.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 6: The buyer must navigate support, delivery and refund friction<\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Goda advertises a 30-day guarantee and publishes a portal for cancellations. On paper, that sounds manageable. In practice, BBB complaints describe missing packages, questionable tracking, repeat charges, delayed responses and difficulty securing refunds.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not every buyer has the same experience. The sheer number of complaints and the exceptionally high unanswered rate make the risk impossible to dismiss as a few isolated misunderstandings.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"mwtad818515740\" class=\"gas_fallback-ad_309749-ad_309691-placement_400591\" style=\"margin-top: 30px;margin-bottom: 30px;\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7750719144850257\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-7750719144850257\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"5354318971\" \ndata-ad-format=\"auto\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Does Goda Pheromone Perfume Actually Work?<\/h2>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">It can work as a fragrance<\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If by \u201cwork\u201d someone means that the bottle contains a scented oil and may smell appealing, the answer can be yes. Some independent reviewers like the warm, sweet or skin-like scent. Others describe it as ordinary, synthetic or too weak.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fragrance is subjective. A perfume does not need a medical study to be enjoyable, and a person who likes Goda\u2019s scent may feel more confident while wearing it.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The attraction effect is not proven<\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The problem begins when subjective enjoyment is converted into a biological promise. Goda\u2019s phrases about magnetism, pheromone levels and irresistible attention suggest more than perfume preference.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is no convincing product-specific trial showing that Goda causes other people to become attracted to the wearer. The percentages shown on the sales page are presented as persuasive statistics, but the site does not provide enough transparent information about the study design, sample selection, controls or independent publication to support the headline interpretation.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u201cClinically proven\u201d needs a verifiable study<\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A clinical-sounding label is not evidence by itself. Buyers should be able to identify who conducted the research, how many participants were involved, what the control group used, what outcome was measured and where the complete results can be reviewed.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Without those details, the claim functions as a trust badge rather than a scientific finding.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"mwtad1921693473\" class=\"gas_fallback-ad_309750-ad_309691-placement_400592\" style=\"margin-top: 30px;margin-bottom: 30px;\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7750719144850257\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-7750719144850257\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"4041237300\" \ndata-ad-format=\"auto\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The BBB Record Is a Major Warning<\/h2>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As of July 2026, Goda\u2019s BBB business profile shows an F rating and 703 complaints listed as unanswered. Delivery issues form a large portion of the record, but billing, subscription, product and refund complaints also appear repeatedly.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The BBB also opened an advertising review in late 2025. It asked the company to support or change multiple claims, including prominent publication logos, large customer figures, a \u201cnumber one\u201d position, pheromone-effect language, guarantee wording, testimonials and subscription disclosures.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The profile states that the business did not provide sufficient substantiation or make the requested changes. This does not mean the BBB has declared every Goda transaction fraudulent. It does mean the business has a documented pattern of advertising and complaint-handling concerns serious enough to justify an F rating.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Trustpilot is mixed, not a clean bill of health<\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As of July 2026, Trustpilot shows a 3.6 out of 5 score from 8,076 reviews, with 26% of reviewers assigning one star. The company invites reviews but had not replied to negative feedback on the profile. Positive reviewers often say they like the scent, while recurring negative reports describe unexpected subscriptions, repeat charges, delayed or missing packages and unresponsive support.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This mixed record matters. It supports the conclusion that Goda usually sells and ships a real fragrance, but it does not erase the recurring-billing and customer-service risk. A real bottle and a risky sales funnel can exist at the same time.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"mwtad4240844373\" class=\"gas_fallback-ad_309751-ad_309691-placement_400593\" style=\"margin-top: 50px;margin-bottom: 50px;\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7750719144850257\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-7750719144850257\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"3690286463\" \ndata-ad-format=\"auto\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Subscription Terms Deserve Close Attention<\/h2>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Goda\u2019s current terms say subscriptions can be cancelled through the customer portal or by contacting support, while the refund policy describes reviews of unintended subscription charges reported within 30 days. Those written protections are better than having no cancellation policy, but they must be weighed against the scale and consistency of complaints describing repeat billing and refund friction.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The central issue is the default purchase path. The discounted bundle is attached to a monthly refill plan by default, while the one-time choice requires a deliberate switch to \u201cBUY ONCE &#8211; NO SAVINGS.\u201d A technically visible disclosure does not automatically make a preselected recurring offer consumer-friendly.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That creates several practical risks:<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A discount can make the subscription choice less obvious than the one-time option.<\/li>\n<li>A cancellation made close to renewal may be processed after another charge.<\/li>\n<li>A package already in fulfillment can become harder to stop.<\/li>\n<li>The customer may have to prove when cancellation was submitted.<\/li>\n<li>A refund window may pass while the buyer is waiting for support.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Anyone considering the product should take a screenshot of the final checkout page and verify whether the receipt says one-time purchase or subscription. With Goda, this is not a minor administrative detail; it is one of the most common themes in public complaints.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"deskad1\" class=\"gas_fallback-ad_174270-ad_309691-placement_400594\" style=\"margin-top: 50px;margin-bottom: 50px;\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7750719144850257\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-7750719144850257\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"5700081834\" \ndata-ad-format=\"auto\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Other Red Flags<\/h2>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Unsupported attraction language:<\/strong> ordinary scent effects are presented as pheromone science.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Unsubstantiated endorsement signals:<\/strong> the BBB formally challenged Goda\u2019s publication logos, testimonials and endorsement-style claims.

That is not enough for us to call it a trustworthy purchase.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The attraction promise is unsupported, the advertising has been formally challenged, the subscription mechanism has generated repeated complaints and the BBB record is exceptionally poor. Those facts outweigh the possibility that a particular buyer may like the smell.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our conclusion is direct: avoid Goda Perfume. If you want a fragrance, buy one based on notes, samples, transparent pricing and a dependable return policy, not on a promise that it will manipulate human attraction.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What to Do If You Already Ordered Goda<\/h2>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Check whether the order is recurring<\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Read the receipt, account page and payment description. Look for subscription, refill, recurring delivery, renews or a delivery interval. Save the page as a screenshot.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Cancel through both available channels<\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Use Goda\u2019s subscription portal and send a written message to support. State that you revoke authorization for future recurring charges and request confirmation that the subscription is closed. Keep the timestamp and any ticket number.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Request the refund in writing<\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Reference the order number, delivery date and 30-day guarantee. If the item was missing or materially different from the advertisement, say so clearly. Ask for the return address, deadline, refund amount and whether shipping costs are excluded.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Do not mail a return without tracking<\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Photograph the product and package before sending it. Use a service that provides delivery confirmation and retain the receipt. A refund dispute is much harder if you cannot prove the return arrived.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Escalate unexplained charges promptly<\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the company bills you after a documented cancellation or refuses to resolve a qualifying problem, contact the card issuer or payment provider. Explain the timeline accurately and provide the checkout, cancellation and support records.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. Monitor statements for additional renewals<\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Do not assume the issue is finished after one refund. Watch the account through at least the next scheduled delivery date and report any new unauthorized charge immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Buy Fragrance Without Falling for Pheromone Hype<\/h2>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Choose by scent family and sample size, not promises about another person\u2019s behavior.<\/li>\n<li>Distinguish a pleasant skin scent from a scientifically proven attractant.<\/li>\n<li>Ignore customer stories that cannot separate fragrance, confidence and coincidence.<\/li>\n<li>Prefer a one-time purchase unless you intentionally want refills.<\/li>\n<li>Take a screenshot of the checkout terms before paying.<\/li>\n<li>Check complaint handling, not just the star score displayed by the seller.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Bottom Line<\/h2>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Goda may smell good to some people. That is the strongest fair statement the evidence supports. It does not prove that the product contains an effective human pheromone or makes the wearer biologically irresistible.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When that unsupported promise is combined with an F BBB rating, 703 unanswered complaints as of July 2026, a preselected monthly refill plan and recurring-order disputes across multiple review platforms, the purchase stops looking like harmless perfume experimentation. Goda asks buyers to trust too much: the science, the testimonials, the checkout and the refund process. Our recommendation is to keep your money and choose a fragrance brand that sells scent rather than a fantasy.<\/p>\n<div id=\"mwtad2830122046\" class=\"gas_fallback-ad_176819-ad_309691-placement_400595\" style=\"margin-top: 50px;margin-bottom: 50px;\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7750719144850257\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-7750719144850257\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"8386082122\" \ndata-ad-format=\"auto\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Goda Perfume is sold with a fantasy that is much bigger than the bottle.
