Why it worked

Product placement
Yves Saint Laurent Black Opium Pink Glaze (perfume) - ACTS - The creator sprays it on herself, implying it is used for personal scent. Removing it would change the context of the video, as it is the central focus. YSL Beauty (brand) - APPEARS - Mentioned in the caption and as the brand of the perfume. Removing it would not change what happens in the video, but would remove brand context.
