Sunday perfume news round-up

Posted by Robin on 21 January 2007 4 Comments

If you insist on following the Jade Goody debacle, you can find most of the back story in today's UK Times Online article Beauty and the Bigot. Basenotes has an article about The Perfume Shop in the UK pulling Goody's Shh... perfume from their shelves, and apparently Debenham's have followed suit. Her bottle manufacturer, ironically enough located in India, has ceased production.

The Edmonton Journal has an interesting article about the short life cycle of modern fragrances.

PETA was apparently planning to disrupt a promotional event for Jennifer Lopez's new J Lo Glow After Dark fragrance yesterday, but I can't find any follow-up stories so I don't know if they did or not. 

Not really perfume-related, but Luca Turin fans will want to read his op-ed piece in today's New York Times: What You Can't Smell Will Kill You.

Lancôme has announced that British actor Clive Owen will be the new spokesperson for its male fragrance and skincare lines:

Mysteriously hypnotic and resolutely masculine, Clive Owen was definitely the perfect choice to embody Lancôme’s new fragrance for men Hypnôse Homme and new anti-aging skin care range Lancôme Men.

Look for the ad campaigns, both television and print, this spring. (via press release from Lancome, picture via cosmeticnews)
