A fragrance devoid of complacency and ordinary prettiness.
An extraordinary perfume for woman endowed with curves, great strength of character, and larger-than-life sensibilities and appetites.
Scandal started it all.
My pulse quickens today, just as it did over 50 years ago.
About the actual perfume called Soulgasm. Certainly a perfume is always about your personal vibe of the moment, how it resonates with your chemistry, mood, hormones, the desired “message” one wants to give out. If you like a sweet fruity floral *pop* with a sexy vanillic musky ambery base I say try it! I did and it is fun, lively and joyful.

When it comes to men’s suits the top of the line is the Italian label Brioni. Their suits begin at $5,000 and can go much higher depending on the fabric chosen. A Brioni suit is said to take 183 steps over 18 hours to be made by one of 900 tailors in the Brioni factory in Italy.

The remaining task was to put juice in the bottle that would also live up to the name on the bottle.
There weren’t much in the way of new launches announced this week but there was a huge story that took place last Saturday evening on of all places the Home Shopping Network. The result of that story could signal a sea change in how new fragrances are marketed in the future, especially in the celebuscent arena.
Sheryl Crow got it right:
“If it makes you happy-
It can’t be that bad…
If it makes you happy-
Why the hell are you so sad? “
So it is with DSH’s Kohl Gris.
Originally launched for the holiday season of 2009, this baby is timelessly decadent and sultry.
It would murmur “come hither” on any man or woman alive.
And it may be worn with impunity in any weather, it’s so subtle.
