Have you ever wondered why perfume body lotions typically do not have the wear-time of their Eau de Parfum counterparts? You are not alone! Angel creator Thierry Mugler sought out the answer to this question and has come up with the solution by way of new technology – Intense Diffuse System (IDS).With the new IDS technology, Angel’s signature scent is now preserved no matter the product texture: body lotion, shower gel, hand cream; and has the same intensity as an Eau de Parfum. The Intense Diffuse System (IDS) helps delay the scents evaporation by continuously reactivating the intensity of Angel as clothes lightly rub against skin or your body heat rises.

In addition to the new technology, a new way or “art” of wearing the scent has been suggested. Angel has created three ways of wearing the dreamy scent:

1. Infuse Yourself With Angel
   • Perfuming Shower Gel
   • Perfuming Body Exfoliant

   

2. Dress Yourself With Angel
   • Perfuming Body Cream
   • Perfuming Body Lotion
   • Perfuming Body Oil

   

3. Adorn Yourself With Angel
   • Perfuming Hand Cream
   • Perfuming Hair Mist
   • Perfuming Roll-On Deodorant
   • Perfuming Deodorant Spray

   

My personal favorite technique is to “infuse” myself with Angel. I personally love beginning my day with an exhilarating shower! The very first time I used the combination of shower gel, body exfoliant, and a touch of the Angel Eau de Parfum, my crew member raved about how delicious I smelled – after 12 hours of being on-set!

Finally, the icing on the cake – Exhilarate yourself with Angel’s Eau de Parfum as it comes in a variety of packaging options to fit your personal needs. They include:

The First Star: 75ml refillable

• Nomadic Shooting Star: 25ml and 50ml refillable and non-refillable flat shooting Star
• Vertical Star: 100ml refillable
• Miniature Star: 10ml refillable

That’s not all - Mugler has completed his package of delectable delights by tying it up with a pretty bow: Ms. Naomi Watts! Mugler has enlisted the gorgeous Watts for his new high voltage Angel advertising campaign. Check out the behind the scenes of her photo shoot for Angel and the final print ad.

“Mmm… what’s that smell?”

If only I had a dollar for every time a coworker said that!

My second favorite is, “Someone smells good!”

Yeah, it’s me!

I am always after the next best scent. You could call me a fragranista. I am also lover of travel, and a tropical island is about my favorite place to be. I picked up Island Capri, a Michael Kors fragrance put out by Estee Lauder, in August before my trip to Turks & Caicos.

It’s nearly October now, and I am unwilling to give it up. Call it an addiction. This fragrance is the perfect combination of sexy and sweet, combining delightful florals with a sensual, subtle fruity note, with some woodsy scents beneath.

MichaelKors.com describes the scent as, “island spirit is brought to life in this new fragrance from Michael Kors—fresh and voluptuous, this succulent scent combines lush florals with subtle fruit and woodsy accords.

• Dewy, sparkling top notes of Chinese kiwi, honeysuckle, and parrot tulip.

• Lush, vibrant heart notes of champaca flowers, gingerlilies, Bulgarian rose, and stephanotis.

• Woody, smooth base notes of white bark accord, driftwood, and rice fields accord.”

All I know is, I smell delicious, and I love the modern and feminine turquoise glass bottle that reminds me of the ocean licking the shores of Turks & Caicos.

Mmm… what’s that smell?

Jennifer Lopez crosses into the world of men’s fragrance with her newest edition to the Lopez empire, Deseo for Men. Her women’s fragrances have flown off the shelves and it is no doubt that this will go just as quick.

I wanted to capture the intimate and personal nature of a man who is sexy, yet strong

…Lopez said of her new men’s fragrance Deseo. Deseo for women launched last September and Deseo for men will be launching in September 2008.
The sexy men’s fragrance has top notes of lemon, yuzu, red berries and cedar leaf. The heart of the fragrance is tobacco leaves, guaicwood and orris. The final dry down of the fragrance is sandalwood, cedar wood, patchouli, amber, and vanilla. I am loving it already! I am all about my man smelling clean, sexy, and with a dry down of pure masculinity with all of the woodsy notes.

Deseo will be available in an eau de toilette in a 1.7 oz for $45 and a 3.4 oz for $55. There will also be an aftershave balm in a 3.4 oz for $40 and a 2.4 oz deodorant for $16. If you give your man a fragrance, you have to include an ancillary piece, and I always include the deodorant. When your man wears your favorite fragrance along with the deodorant, he will smell even better!

You will be able to find this sexy new Jennifer Lopez fragrance in Macy’s, Dillard’s and Ulta, as well as other specialty retailers. Look for it this September and don’t forget to try the women’s Deseo for women available now.
