Scent-imental Over You is a 1947 Looney Tunes short directed by Chuck Jones.

Plot

Jealous of the other dogs who have fur coats, a hairless Mexican pooch decides to borrow a fur coat and enter the dog show. Unfortunately, she borrows a skunk pelt by accident, which soon frightens the other dogs and attracts the unwanted attention of the amorous Pepé Le Pew. Pepe continues chasing her until she finally reveals that she is a dog, much to his surprise. Pepe then takes off his fur like a zippered jacket to reveal that he is a dog, capturing the misled pooch's swoon, only to reveal once more that it was just him in a dog costume. He says to the audience, "I am stupid, no?", as the cartoon ends, implying that Pepé is indeed a skunk who doesn't care that his love interest is a dog.

Trivia

• In this cartoon Pepe's name is changed from Henry to Stinky.
• This is the second and last Pepe cartoon to take place in America. All others would take place in France.
• This is the first cartoon where Pepe had a genuine French accent as opposed to the faked French accent he previously had in his debut appearance Odor-able Kitty.
• This is the only cartoon where Pepe chases a dog instead of a cat.

Goofs

Although original 1946-1955 Looney Tunes ending music cue is preserved on the Blue Ribbon reissue, the Turner dubbed version (both US and EU) replaces the original ending music cue with the 1941-55 Merrie Melodies ending music cue.
