Two limited edition fragrances (there might be more) introduced at Star Wars Celebration V earlier this month:
Slave Leia (shown) ~ “Chains cannot restrain your smoldering sensuality even when the most despicable scum in the galaxy surround you…”
Fresh Eat, Pray, Love ~ new perfumes
Fresh will launch a trio of fragrances — Eat, Pray, Love — in conjunction with the upcoming Julia Roberts movie of the same name (based on the book by Elizabeth Gilbert; you can watch the trailer here)…
Sarah Jessica Parker SJP NYC ~ fragrance review
SJP NYC is the latest release from Sarah Jessica Parker. It’s a tie-in with her upcoming movie, Sex and the City 2, and is meant to be a reflection on the fictional character Carrie Bradshaw as opposed to a reflection on Sarah Jessica Parker herself. Which works out very well for Coty, apparently, since they’ve found that Sarah Jessica Parker is not always an easy sell:
In the case of actress Sara Jessica Parker, Coty has had varied experiences. Lovely, which was easily relatable to Parker’s television persona, was a success. Covet, meanwhile, which tapped into a different side of the celebrity, proved a bigger challenge. [Catherine] Walsh explained that Coty’s next launch with Parker, SJP NYC, again focuses on the personality that the consumer wants.1
And the personality that the consumer wants, apparently, smells like strawberry. I suppose I should stop here and admit that I was never a fan of Sex and the City, although I did sit through several episodes at the urging of friends who found the show mesmerizing…
Lazy Thursday poll ~ Amortentia
Today's poll was suggested by Jaimie, who wants to know what you would smell in amortentia. Amortentia is a love potion introduced in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, and purportedly everyone who smells it smells what they are most attracted to. Hermione smells freshly mown grass and new parchment; Harry smells broomstick handle and treacle tart.
What would you smell?
Sarah Jessica Parker SJP NYC ~ new perfume
Sarah Jessica Parker’s next fragrance, due to launch in February, will be SJP NYC. The scent, a fruity floral, is meant to tie in with Parker’s upcoming Sex and the City movie (due out in May), and to reflect the character she plays, Carrie Bradshaw.
SJP NYC was developed by perfumer Honorine Blanc…
