Tobacco Vanille by Tom Ford {Shopping Tip} + Exclusive Vogue Video Interview of Tom Ford {Scented Images}

Believe it or not, at least one of the magnificent 12 Private Blends has already hit a perfume discounter: Tobacco Vanille. And only a few days ago at Harvey Nichols they were selling like hot cakes while Tom Ford himself was signing the bottles away, explaining that Tobacco Vanille is one of his favorites. The latter statement has more the ring of sincerity to it than one might assume normally had it just been an isolated remark proferred on a signature-event day since he already explained in Women's Wear Daily a while ago that it is one of his three favorites from the line......

Josh Holloway Is The New Face For Cool Water by Davidoff {Scented Image}

Actor Josh Holloway of the TV show "Lost" is the new face for Davidoff Cool Water, except in North America where the male icon of choice for the fragrance is surfer Laird Hamilton. So here's a chance for US and Canada-based readers to take a peak at the new advert.The actor said "It's something I can believe in," [...] "It's simple, it's masculine and is associated with water and the vitality of life.

"The water in Hawaii is phenomenal; on a daily basis, it can bring tears to your eyes with its clarity and color," he added, noting he takes advantage of being seaside by fishing. "I have huge respect for the ocean."

Advertisement for L by Lolita Lempicka {Scented Image}

Ooooh, love this poster. I thought I would share with you this dazzling advert for the salty-sweet L by Lolita Lempicka. How about a little series on salty fragrances? They are great to wear in the heat of the summer and the upcoming Coney Island by Bond no9 and Fleurs de Sel by Miller Harris, especially the latter, are reawakening interest in them.

More on Covet by Sarah Jessica Parker {New Perfume} {Scented Image}

As previously reported, Sarah Jessica Parker is going to launch her second fragrance named Covet. True to her word, she is this time launching a perfume that represents the "vixen" side of her that she was not able to express with Lovely, which represents her "well-behaved" side. She had said in the past to Chandler Burr that she regretted not being able to create a dirtier scent where Lovely was concerned. It sounds promising, don't you think?

Hypnôse Homme by Lancôme: Fronted by Clive Owen {Perfume Review & Musings} {New Perfume} {Men's Cologne}

Hypnôse Homme is the latest release by Lancôme meant to be, in advertising terms essentially, the masculine flanker to Hypnôse Femme. British actor Clive Owen is the face for the fragrance bringing his well-cultivated rugged good looks to the representation of classic masculinity that the perfume stands for. His hand over the flacon, mimicking that of the feminine model for Hypnôse Femme (Daria Werbowy), seems more docile and sedate than one would wish for and dampens a bit, in my view, the sought-after image of a magnetic virile man. That is that it seems to me that the brand-recognition marketing effort comes in the way of the unadulterated perception of a man that "...embodies a certain hypnotic charm. With a flick of a smile and lift of a brow, he hints at mysteries."

The perfume was created by nose Maurice Roucel of Symrise who said of Hypnôse Homme that "it's both modern and quite classic," adding "The idea was to have something flesh [sic], something watery on top and fiery in the dry-down,". An English touch in homage to Clive Owen is conveyed by a lavender note. But Owen himself confessed "...that the formula for Hypnose Homme was already in place when he arrived on the project."

The personality of the scent is both conservative and sensual. There is nothing outwardly very original here, but a true sensual presence and an appreciation of rich sophisticated materials......

Diagram: The Costs of Launching A New Perfume {Perfume History & Facts} {Scented Image}

On March 14 2006, the Committee on Competition condemned 13 fragrance and luxury brands (Chanel, Dior, Guerlain, L'Oréal, Yves Saint Laurent etc.) and three national distributors (Marionnaud, Sephora, and Nocibé) to an indemnity of 46, 2 millions of Euros for having agreed between 1997 and 2000 on recommended minimum retail prices in order to protect their luxury image. Smaller distributors were apparently forced to comply too. Both the commercial code and European legislation prohibit this type of practice. The magazine Challenges published a diagram that shows the average costs of launching a 100 ml eau de toilette in the mainstream market.......

Advertisement for Gucci II Pour Homme {Scented Image}

For your viewing pleasure, here is another advertisement for Gucci II Pour Homme. It is one of the best releases of the first quarter of 2007 in our opinion although, we don't want to unfairly heighten expectations as this can cause some people to feel too easily disappointed. "It's a terrible scent!" Read our review. It is, at the very least, a must-try scent.

Flacon of YSL Paris Jardins Romantiques by Yves Saint Laurent {Scented Image} {New Perfume}

We already announced the upcoming limited edition of YSL's spring and summer version of Paris this year which is called Jardins Romantiques (Romantic Gardens). We simply had to post this picture of the adorable flacon which is decorated with views of Paris, the Eiffel Tower being in pink and the Arc de Triomphe in green. The jus promises to be colored with the same rosy and fresh green hues as it has notes of rose, lilac, lily of the valley, and cut grass.

This would make a lovely gift and souvenir from Paris 2007 with its shabby chic (more chic than shabby though) and Paris appartment charm.

It will retail for 54 Euros for a 125 ml bottle from April 2007.

It's is now available here.

Greeting Card Perfumed With M.A. Sillage de la Reine {Scented Image} {Perfume History & Facts}

I just wanted to share with you the image of the greeting card that was sent to the employees of the Château de Versailles to express good wishes for 2007. It was perfumed by Quest International with M.A. Sillage de la Reine. It is a very large card folded in the middle. The base notes like sandalwood and musk were not surprisingly, particularly apparent.
