New Yankees fragrances smell like victory

Posted on February 28, 2012 by admin

no, the men’s fragrance captures “a sporty and confident attitude, creating a timeless masculine” scent, redolent with “fresh wood tones, an invigorating blend of sparkling bergamont, coriander and cool blue sage,” the manufacturer says.

The ladies’ scent is described as an “alluring and fruity” melange that blends “guava, succulent plum and sun-kiss apricot nectar.”

“Drenched strawberry blossom and rich tiare flower enhance the femininity of the scent with creamy sandalwood, delicious vanilla and sensuous musk,” the maker claims.

The fragrances, in handsome blue and pink bottles bearing the iconic Yankee logo, have gotten the teams’ seal of approval and will first be sold at Yankee Stadium and at Macy’s stores.

a 1.7 oz. bottle sells for $49. a 3.4 oz. bottle will set you back $63.

For Yankees veep Michael Tusiani, it’s a matter of dollars and scents.

The new aromas, he said, “will strengthen brand awareness for its fragrances and be an exciting new addition to Yankees prestige and lifestyle products.”

That’s nothing to sniff at. The Yankees brand is a moneymaker, advertisers say. and shortstop Derek Jeter, who is considered the most marketable player in Major League Baseball, recently did an ad for Driven cologne.

in September, Yankee closer Mariano Rivera inked a deal to do a commercial for another fresh smelling scent — Arrid Extra Dry deodorant.

A brief history of Chanel

Posted on February 21, 2012 by admin

In beauty terms, it all starts with Chanel No5. it is the best-selling fragrance in the world. The world! That’s a lot of people all going around smelling the same. it started life back in 1921 when Gabrielle ‘Coco’ Chanel was already reigning over the Paris fashion world. Created with Russian perfumer to the Tsars, Ernest Beaux, the name for Chanel’s first fragrance is said to come from her superstitious belief in the virtues of the number five. Apparently she picked the fifth sample presented to her by Beaux and the simple name stuck. it was the first time that a fashion house had created a perfume and it soon became a huge hit. at the same time, Chanel started to expand and go global launching a cosmetics line (in 1924) and a range of skincare products (in 1929).

In the 50s, Chanel No5 really was the perfume to be, erm, smelt in. in a 1954 interview, Marilyn Monroe famously answered the question “What do you wear to bed?” with the line “Just a few drops of No5″. The popularity of the perfume grew and grew but this wasn’t necessarily a great thing. in the 70s it was decided that No5 had lost its air of exclusivity so it was reinvented and made less widely available. Huge advertising campaigns were adopted using big name directors and big name stars – a Chanel tradition that lives on to this day.

Marilyn Monroe getting ready for bed

Not at all. Chanel has a huge range of fancily-priced makeup with seasonal launches and limited edition collections that come thick and fast. in more recent years, there has been the somewhat peculiar phenomenon of the ‘it’ nail colour. Maybe because it’s affordable in a recession, maybe because it’s fun, or maybe because Chanel have a great marketing team and have hooked us all in, but something strange happens when Chanel launch a new shade. People get a bit giddy – waiting lists are formed and cheap copycats are produced. This spring’s hues are a group of three pastelly-fruity shades named April, May, and June (pictured above, £17.50 each, call 020 7493 3836 for stockist info). my pick is the peachy shade June which I feel bridges the seasonal gap quite nicely – just the right side of summery brightness without going too far.

• Nails Inc have a very similar shade called Little miss Sunshine (£12, nailsinc.com) or try Revlon top Speed Fast Dry Nail Enamel in Peachy (£6.49, boots.com).

The beauty spot: fig fragrance

Posted on February 19, 2012 by admin

What fig fragrances do is make things smell like the outdoors is meant to. The outdoors is meant to smell of wet wood and things cooked on fires. Instead it smells of Red Bull and dirty hair. So you fake it with fig. It’s like sweetness soured, or organic pudding. when you burn it in a candle (Wild fig and cassis candle £38, jomalone.com – also, see their cologne below) it makes the room smell like a boutique hotel (best smell ever) and when you rub it in as a body cream (Diptyque Philosykos body lotion £28, johnlewis.com) you feel like you’ve been for a bracing walk.

Space NK Mediterranean Fig Candle £30, spacenk.co.uk Korres Fig Body Milk £9.50, feelunique.com Jo Malone Wild Fig and Cassis Cologne £72, jomalone.com Tommy Guns Fig, Plum and Marshmallow Conditioner £5.50, asos.com Laura Mercier Fresh Fig Hand Cream £13, selfridges.com
