Synopsis

Striving to be like all the high-class dogs in their fine coats, a little hairless pooch borrows a black and white fur coat of her owner, not realizing it makes her appear to be a skunk. Once she has it on, she finds everyone fleeing from her - everyone, that is, except for the amorous Pepé Le Pew.

Steineded How sad is this?
Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film
Anoushka Slater While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
Edgar Allan Pooh . . . this 1947 Pepe Le Pew outing from two years later ups the queasy quotient close to a quart. At least the anonymous tom cat in KITTY was bigger than Henry the Skunk (a.k.a., Pepe), and a male, to boot. Hank's Hanky Panky threats were merely implied in KITTY--not realized. Tom's utter reluctance to consider inter-species (and intra-gender) mating certainly raised the "Yuck!" Factor for viewers, but they sensed all along that Tom would take care of himself in the end. KITTY was abhorrent primarily for its possibility of leading little ones astray. SCENT-IMENTAL OVER YOU realizes the darkest fears raised by KITTY. Rank Hank's focus now is making a female dog less than half his size gag. His unwanted attentions remain unrelenting, as he adds kidnapping and locking his victim inside a hidden room (similar to recent cases uncovered in California, Utah, Cleveland, and elsewhere) to his list of serial sex crimes. At the end Henry\Pepe anticipates and takes advantage of Stockholm Syndrome, as he reveals that he's a skunk in a dog suit in a skunk suit, cleverly trying to make his victim identify with him. It's surprising Warner Bros. next cartoon "friend" wasn't Sneaky Snake!
utgard14 A small Mexican hairless dog puts on a fur coat, not realizing it's a skunk pelt. This frightens all the dogs she was trying to impress away. But guess who it attracts? That's right, Pepe Le Pew. Pepe pursues the poor little dog who just doesn't understand what's going on. This is an early Pepe short. If you've seen one, in many ways you've seen them all. Pepe is a very one-note character but it can be an amusing note. This one is pretty good but not great. The animation is nice, the writing is good, and Mel Blanc's voicework is terrific. But it lacks a little something. I think it's due to the object of Pepe's affection being a dog instead of a cat. This is the only time that happened, by the way. Often in the shorts I've seen, the hilarious reactions of the cat to Pepe's romantic overtures are the funniest parts. That's missing here.
Michael_Elliott Scent-imental Over You (1947) *** (out of 4) There weren't too many Pepe Le Pew shorts, perhaps because they're all based around a single joke, but that one joke was usually good enough to get some laughs and smiles. This time out a hairless dog puts on some fur, which makes it look like a skunk so needless to say the other dogs stay away from her. She finally gets some unwanted attention when Pepe sets his eyes on her and won't let go. It would be hard for me to watch the Pepe shorts all together since they are one-joke-films but when viewed on their own they aren't too bad. There's nothing ground breaking here, be it animation wise or even comedy wise, but there's still several cute scenes that will put a smile on your face. One of the highlights comes towards the end when Pepe gets the dog trapped inside his apartment where a little twist happens.
Neil Doyle Although the laughs are usually based on a single joke, with Pepe relentlessly seeking a mate and finding that he is quite irresistible, these Pepe Le Pew cartoons were stylish fun from the Chuck Jones factory of cartoons.There's not much to be said for the plot which had been used in countless other Pepe films, but as usual there are chuckles to be had in how Pepe's love struck antics get him caught up in one silly situation after another.Animation is standard for this type of cartoon. Recommended only for those who succumb to Pepe's Charles Boyer accent and his rascally ways.
