What’s your lucky perfume or cologne?

photo: target.com 
I have a HUGE presentation tomorrow - not size-wise, but it’s very important to my education.  If I do well, I get to finally say I have a Master’s degree.  If I don’t…it means a lot more work for me.  So I want to do really well, and that includes looking and smelling my […]

The Scented LOLs

Oh, man - I found this news story and it was just too great.  The guy’s mug shot is classic too.  In short, he tried to rob a video rental/tanning salon with a bottle of Stetson shaped like a gun.  While I gotta admire his creativity, the bad thing is even using an item that […]

Frederic Malle Outrageous! for Barney’s Co-op

$110, 100ml.  I want this scent so badly for summer…the notes: caipirinha, clean laundry, green apple, orange blossom, amber and cedar.   It’s androgynous and clean without being too un-natural.  It’s available only at Barney’s Coop, and for a limited time only.  Why not buy a bottle and share it with your better half, whomever that […]

Thierry Mugler Angel Men Pure Coffee

via Uncrate:
Angel for Men is a rich, gourmand scent - Pure Coffee takes this deeper and richer, mixing coffee and chocolate.  I’m not finding it on Thierry Mugler’s site but I’ll keep an eye out.

Tom Brady for Stetson - fresh and in stores now!

This woody-chipre fragrance is a classic, and it’s being re-launched with Tom Brady (QB for the New England Patriots) as the spokesmodel.  This is some serious,  Brokeback Mountain-style hotness (except replace Jake Gyllenhaal with one of Tom’s model girlfriend Gisele….)  There also seems to be a new fragrance (Stetson Fresh) available only at K-Mart.  Or […]

Diptyque- new colognes, discontinued scents

Diptyque is going to be changing its lineup, adding three new colognes and discontinuing the following scents: L’Autre, Eau d’Elide, Opone, L’Eau Trois, and Virgilio.  Opone is an interesting white floral and I know some of you will not be happy, but let’s hope the new scents make up for it.  They are: L’Eau de […]

RSVP by Kenneth Cole cologne

I couldn’t help noticing the ad for RSVP Kenneth Cole. It stars a very yummy looking Jon Bon Jovi. I’m a little young to have really had the hots for JBJ back in the day but he has aged remarkably well. The tagline is “Did you rock someone’s world” and Bon Jovi […]

Back In Black! Derek Jeter’s second fragrance, Driven Black

So, you might have noticed the little outage we had a few days this week. Now, we’re back in business. I took the time to go through all my BF’s mags and find some cologne ads…there are surprisingly a lot in Esquire, GQ, etc. I saw several very yummy ads featuring celebs […]

Cologne of the Day: Fresh Patchouli Pure

Patchouli is just one of those “love it or hate it” scents. I guess most of the world hated this one because it appears to be discontinued although decants are still available at places like ThePerfumedCourt and DecantPerfume. The notes include:
top notes of ginger, bergamot and orange; heart notes of patchouli, cinnamon, and […]
