Billionaire Boyfriend, Get One! by Kate Walsh

Billionaire Boyfriend1 Billionaire Boyfriend, Get One! by Kate Walsh

The only cure for a closet recession is–tada, that billionaire you should be dating. The job boards are fully populated with people but if you are smart, I mean a quick wit, you already know where to find the money. This fragrance says it all: class, sass, sauce and boss–that’s right, if you are going to wrangle a billionaire this year, why not have the perfect fragrance to irresistibly woo him in. Though many can wrestle and others can win, if you get your hands on one, suggestion: nail him to the floor, cause SHAWTY, competition is FIERCE.

Start with this wonderful fragrance and you will be one of the apples of his eye in no time–if you’re good (at what you do), hopefully he’ll make you number one. If not, hey–he’s a billionaire, there’s plenty of his money to go around. The fragrance is described as “a lavish, decadent expression of seduction and opulence. Live the fantasy and let him spoil you.” Living the fantasy, i.e. the good life is fun, but embodying it is a different story.

The brilliant and seductive note of black jasmine amber is at the heart of this desirable fragrance, making it unforgettable and charmingly extravagant. Succulent fruits of bergamot and tangerine wrapped in lush green leaves intoxicate as the scent blooms into a provocative blend of black jasmine, velvet orchid, gardenia and a touch of patchouli flower. Vetiver, cistus, sandalwood, and golden amber notes finish the alluring experience as it exudes an addictive wealth of warm woods.

When you meet that uber rich prince charming with billions to blow…intoxicate him with your scent, and if you really want to rock his world get the roll on to keep in your purse at Sephora.com!

An Ode to New York Oud

The New York Oud by Bond No. 9 retains the androgynous nature of the Old World oud, but this new concoction is not traditional by any means. The timeless scent has been modernized and given an urban flair, creating a unique New York flair.

A sumptuous rose bouquet blends with musky teakwood and earthy vetiver to create a lingering urban-forest accord. It even boasts a top note of honey-like saffron – what Cleopatra threw into her bath to enhance lovemaking. This Oud launches in time for Valentine’s Day at Bond No. 9, so spray some on as you leave the store, and let it linger all night through to Feb. 15.

And that is exactly why it’s meant to be shared. For Series Three, six prominent designers from around the world collaborated with six perfumers to explore childhood memories and the influence of adolescence on identity. This collection for both men and women is a journey between the fading of innocence to the onset of rebellion, mischief and reality, with each scent being a completely different journey.

You Can Wear Kate Walsh’s Boyfriend

Kate Walsh’s new perfume, called Boyfriend, is meant for women, but he won’t know the difference.

The blend of woods and florals is meant to give you the feeling of wearing your boyfriend’s shirt to sleep, except you have it wherever you go.

Boyfriend is available exclusively at Sephora.

Tom Ford’s Exotic Dark Flower

Though Tom Ford’s Black Orchid is considered a women’s fragrance, we think it can go both ways. This dark flower is a far cry from a bunch of petunias. Black Orchid represents timeless luxury and worldly glamour reminiscent of classic fragrances.

This warm and spicy fragrance is a sensuous blend of black truffle and ylang with fresh bergamot and black currant as the top note. The heart is a mixture of the custom-made Tom Ford Black Orchid with dark, tempting florals and rich fruit accords deepened with intoxicating lotus wood. It is balanced with patchouli, incense and vetiver. Vanilla drops add a fluid creaminess to warm balsam and sandalwood. This fragrance whispers seduction.

Experience the Black Orchid at www.tomford.com.

Trend-setting rapper Nicki Minaj launches first fragrance Pink Friday today. Ranking number one all over the world, this fierce, fashion super-star is bridging the gap between stuffy, upper crust department store beauty and the rebelliously-chic culture of the hip-hop scene. Pink Friday is the epitome of Minaj’s colorful personality and her glorious shock-value, trendsetting statements, which are the reasons why we try to love her. According to Elizabeth Arden, Pink Friday fuses flirty and fiery notes of “juicy fruits, creamy vanilla and sensual musks to create an exhilarating scent that ignites beyond the senses.”

“It has truly been a privilege to work with Nicki throughout the evolution of Pink Friday,” said Noreen Dodge, Global Marketing & Creative Development.  “She is a ‘creative’ in every sense of the word and brings a level of passion to the project that inspires us with every detail.  She is an amazing woman: a high achiever who holds herself to a standard that will allow the brand to make its own brilliant mark in the beauty category.  There have been no boundaries in making the decisions surrounding the launch of Pink Friday, and that impact will prove phenomenal for the brand.”

Minaj will be kicking off the celebration of Pink Friday’s launch, with a personal appearance at Macy*s Herald Square in NYC today at 3:30pm, where she will meet with 300 lucky fans and sign autographs of the limited edition Pink Friday commemorative ad which was shot by top NYC-based commercial photographer Howard Huang. The ad campaign captures Minaj’s ability to be larger-than-life both in beauty and music.

Minaj’s album Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded has already gone off the charts becoming her second consecutive number one worldwide platinum album. Fans are obsessed with Minaj’s music as Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded has quickly become number one in the US, Canada, Japan, UK, Australia and New Zealand, with her first single, ‘Starships,’ selling more than 3.2 million downloads to date, holding the record for spending the most consecutive weeks in the Billboard US Top Ten.

Donna Karan WOMAN, For Her. By Her.

Donna Karen Woman Donna Karan WOMAN, For Her. By Her.
The essence of a WOMAN is hard to embody, but Donna Karan has mastered the art of encompassing the scent of the fragrant, fresh and sweet, WOMAN. The eponymous perfume reminds us of the rite of passage that is WOMANHOOD, and as the years progress: We need for the more refined version of our former-self.  Through “beauty, balance and seduction…mind, body and spirit. Whatever age or race, women are beautiful, and embrace their femininity with conviction.” according to Karan.

In celebration of WOMEN everywhere Donna Karan pulled together her inspirations, from perfumer Anne Flipo to renowned architect Zaha Hadid to design the curvaceous bottle. The alluring advertising campaign “celebrates the accomplished yet sensual side of multi-faceted women, featuring beautiful women of all ages who also give back to the world: Christy Turlington Burns, Karolina Kurkova and Liya Kebede.” Donna Karan notes “I believe women are complex, and full of emotion and feelings. We have a unique ability to care and share and make the world a better place. When I approached the project I wove this idea of the multi-faceted woman into all aspects of the process.

THE FRAGRANCE:
Just like a woman, the fragrance is a dichotomy of softness and strength. Utilizing ingredients that are traditionally found in masculine fragrances and wrapping them with nurturing white florals, Donna Karan and Anne Flipo’s groundbreaking creation results in a feminine and sensual scent: the confident signature core of sandalwood and Haitian vetiver is sublimated with the creamy feminine notes of orange flower resonating in an instinctual feminine sensuality.

THE BOTTLE:
The packaging for Donna Karan WOMAN is an evolution and a modern interpretation of the language that Donna Karan has always spoken – one that connects the world of art and sculpture with fragrance. A heritage that began with the creation of the iconic Cashmere Mist bottle in 1994 which was designed by Stephan Weiss, Donna’s [late] sculptor husband.

This innovative approach to packaging led her to commission world-renowned IraqiBritish architect Zaha Hadid to design the bottle for Donna Karan Woman. Zaha was inspired by the curvature of a woman’s body: voluptuous, mysterious and irresistible to the touch. The result is a sculptural silhouette that reinforces the individuality and sensuality of a woman.
