      So, for no real reason, I sort of like Joan Rivers. I didn’t own a t.v. when she was on t.v., (I didn’t own a t.v. until well into my 20s!) but through the pop-culture osmosis of daily life know who she is and have seen some of her shticks… and then about a year ago I watched the documentary (free streaming on Netflix if you have it) Joan Rivers: A Piece of Work, and just sort of appreciated her New Yorkiness from a certain era that is quickly dying out.

      I googled her perfume and found a little chatter on the QVC website from folks who had worn her perfume before and were looking forward to its re-release…

      For unfathonable reasons, I feel she should be defended as much more than the sum of her various surgically enhanced parts.I mean it is odd, but for someone known for her TMI humor and sex talk, she didn’t actually use sex or her body to make herself popular. And I guess given that she started out in life as a Molinsky with an anthropology degree from Barnard, she just seems familiar, like one of the ol’ gals from uptown.

      Won’t be buying a bottle of ‘Now and Forever,’ but I guess I am glad it exists and that some people are looking forward to it!

        Actually, when I think fondly of her it is as an “Old Hell Bag.” I often watch her show “fashion police” – not because I think it has anything to say about fashion (her own outfits are rather dreadful) but because of her cutting crude humour.
        Not, however, the image for an “reserved” elegant perfume..

    Two words I never thought I’d see in the same sentence as the name Joan Rivers – private and reserve. I wonder who the target audience/market is for this one?

      Beats me. To be honest, I didn’t even know about the 2001 version.
