Kenneth Cole has launched Kenneth Cole For Her, a new fragrance for women.

What fragrance did you pick? As always, do chime in with your scent of the day even if you’re not participating in the community project.

My temptation this morning: the Sava Trilogy from Imaginary Authors. "The most enduring writer of Josh Meyer's Imaginary Authors stable, Philip Sava was a genre-bending, globe-traveling, deeply confessional novelist presented as part Hemingway, part Hunter S.
