1 Contraption: This is the right answer. We read in the magazine that "Contraption is the biggest selling scent in Kalvin Krime range". If something is the "biggest-selling" or "best-selling" product, then it is purchased more often than the other products. Another example: "The biggest-selling record by The Meatles is The White Album".
1 Fertility Blanket: This is not the best answer here. There is no suggestion in Vague magazine that Fertility Blanket sells more units than other Loco Flannel perfumes.
1 Montmartre Musk: This is not the best answer here. There is no suggestion in Vague magazine that Montmartre Musk sells more units than other Delavigne perfumes.
2 Montmartre Musk: "Montmartre Musk" is the best choice here. In the review, Montmartre Musk is described as "complex", and even carries the warning "Can be too complex sometimes". The terms "complex" and "complicated" share a very similar meaning.
2 Fertility Blanket: This is not the right answer. Fertility Blanket is not described as a "complicated" perfume.
2 Contraption: This is not the right answer. Contraption is not described as a "complicated" perfume.
3 Fertility Blanket: Fertility Blanket is the right perfume to match this description. The journalist writes that Fertility Blanket "Covers (the) smell of bad body odor". This means that it "masks bad (body) smells". It would therefore be appropriate for someone who does not smell very good!
3 Contraption: This is not the best choice: the journalist does not recommend Contraption specifically for people who have body odor problems.
3 Montmartre Musk: This is not the best choice: the journalist does not recommend Montmartre Musk specifically for people who have body odor problems.
4 Montmartre Musk: This is the best choice here. Montmartre Musk, according to the journalist, "is full of artistic flair, vibrance and creativity, it's colourful and romantic, yet fascinating and complex". There is no suggestion that it smells like fruit.
4 Fertility Blanket: This is incorrect. We know that Fertility Blanket smells of fruit because the journalist tells us that it contains "the pure essence of forbidden fruit".
4 Contraption: This is incorrect. We know that Contraption smells of fruit because the journalist tells us that it contains the scent of "exotic fruits".
