Given the perennial popularity of Starbucks' Pumpkin Spice Latte, it's no surprise that every last food and drink brand, from McDonald's to Krispy Kreme, has scrambled to cash in on PSL fever by offering their own vaguely cinnamon- and nutmeg-flavored items. But how far is too far?
That's the question we can't help but grapple with after discovering that a small deodorant company is now selling its very own PSL-scented stick, designed to keep your pits pumpkin spicy-fresh all day long.

Horror of horrors…Labor Day is next Monday! Though some Northwesterners (not me! I’m still a Californian at heart) love the onset of dark, chilly days, stormy weather and rain, rain, rain, I’d prefer to be someplace sunny. I’m preparing for autumn in Perfumeland by clearing out many hundreds of perfume samples I’ve accumulated over the last six months (they will find good homes). I’m sad to report that out of those hundreds of samples, not many stood out; and I’ve already reviewed most of the ones I liked/loved. (Of course, my complaints of showers, clutter and fragrance disappointments are all ridiculous “problems,” but getting lost for an hour in perfume fantasy is a refuge, and I can make people laugh when I lament: “What will I review NEXT week?” Such a weighty question….)
BUT: in this last clean-up, I’ve discovered three perfumes worth sniffing…
Will, Chloe and Arthur Chalker, in Italy, for Acqua di Parma Colonia Pura. (The family that models together...)
