Set in Paris, the proprietor of a perfume establishment is taken aback when skunk Pepé Le Pew ventures into his shop to sample the fragrances. Seeking assistance, the proprietor calls upon a robust gendarme, only to find the law enforcement officer recoiling from Pepé's scent and fleeing the scene. The proprietor then employs Penelope Pussycat to remove Pepé from the premises, inadvertently causing a spill of white dye upon Penelope. Pepé, mistaking Penelope for a female skunk due to the dye's resemblance to his own markings, becomes enamored with her. Despite Penelope's efforts to escape Pepé's advances, he persistently pursues her, expressing romantic sentiments and attempting to woo her. Penelope's futile attempts to cleanse herself of the dye only serve to reinforce Pepé's misguided belief in their romantic compatibility. A series of comedic misinterpretations and misadventures ensue involving mistaken identity, romantic pursuit, and the unpredictability of attraction. It culminates in a scene where Pepé, believing Penelope is attempting to end her life out of love for him, dramatically leaps from a window ledge. Miraculously, both Pepé and Penelope emerge unharmed, albeit drenched from a barrel of water and a can of blue paint, respectively. Following the fortuitous cleansing of Penelope's fur, she loses her ability to detect Pepé's odor due to a cold. Meanwhile, Pepé, now blue from the paint, fails to recognize Penelope's altered appearance. Mistaking each other for unfamiliar entities, their roles become reversed as Penelope, now infatuated with Pepé, begins to pursue him relentlessly.
