Paris Hilton appears as Marilyn Monroe for Tease fragrance launch pictures


Although I'm not a huge fan of Paris i do love Marilyn Monroe and i have to give it to Paris, she knows her Fragrance's and her shoes. so congrats to her on another fragrance!

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Many people have bad hair days, but one that cost $35 million? Not even Paris Hilton could do that -- at least, that's what she says.

Lawyers for the hotel heiress and socialite on Thursday said they "will pursue all of our defenses vigorously and any potential counter claims" against a company that sued Hilton for $35 million claiming she broke a contract to wear its hair extensions.

One day earlier, Beverly Hills-based Hairtech International Inc filed its suit alleging Hilton, a member of the family that founded the hotel chain bearing her name, broke a contract in 2008 when she wore a rival company's extensions.

Hairtech also blamed Hilton for missing a product launch party in 2007 because she was in jail, and said her failure to appear cost the company $6.6 million, according to reports.

Hairtech declined to comment on the lawsuit.

The suit caused headlines around the world as the media seized upon it as a way to tease the wealthy heiress who has acted on TV and in movies, and endorsed products ranging from jewelry to apparel, cosmetics, perfume and hair products.

Hilton's personal life has long been fodder for the tabloid press, and she has had her share of troubles with the law, including a reckless driving arrest and probation violation.

More recently, she has adopted a lower public profile, although she remains a staple on red carpets around the world and is active as a celebrity endorser. Just this week, she was out in Hollywood promoting her new perfume, Tease.

Justin Bieber Named New Face of Proactiv


What do Justin Bieber, Katy Perry and Jessica Simpson have in common?

They're all Proactiv spokespeople. Bieber, 16, is the newest celeb face of the acne brand.

"Justin has teamed up with Proactiv to build 15 schools in 3rd world countries with Pencils of Promise!" his rep tells UsMagazine.com.

"I'm definitely someone who suffers from acne. I'm a teenage boy! ... So I use Proactiv so my face doesn't get like that. Proactiv is a great thing!" the "Baby" singer touts on Proactiv's website.

According to the acne company, Bieber's reps reached out to them to get involved.

Adds Bieber, "My parents got acne when they were growing up. And I'm determined to keep myself clear. If I got a face full of breakouts, I would definitely feel really self-conscious and not wanna do photo shoots, not wanna be singing. With Proactiv I don't have to worry."

"Some people might say: 'Justin Bieber? He doesn’t have acne, why is he doing Proactiv?' But, you know, it's about preventing getting acne. Proactiv is the way to go. It just makes you feel so much better about yourself."

Bieber shot his first ad in the middle of his "My World" Tour.

Ooh la la! Jennifer Aniston goes topless in ads for her new Lolavie fragrance


Jennifer Aniston has turned up the heat for the debut of her new fragrance.

In a series of sexy black-and-white shots to promote her new scent, Lolavie, the 41-year-old actress looks stunning as she poses topless, covering her chest with just her arms while wearing nothing but a white skirt hung low on her hips.

Aniston is slated to attend the launch event for Lolavie, which roughly translates to "laughing at life" in French, on Wednesday at Harrods department store in London. She will be on hand to sign the bottles for customers, London's Daily Mail reported.

"It's been a year-and-a-half journey," Aniston previously told WWD. "I'd been asked to do things before, and it never felt organic. But when Leon [Falic, president of the Falic Fashion Group] approached me to be involved with the process from inception to fruition, I thought, 'This could be a creative expression.'"

"It wasn't just about showing up for a shoot and putting my name on the bottle," she added. "I felt like a little chemist. It's turned out to be an extension of myself as opposed to slapping my name on something."

Aniston also had a hand in how to promote the product: The steamy ad campaign was reportedly shot in her favorite vacation destination in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.

Wanting the fragrance "to be a personal library of scent memories," Aniston came up with a smell that she called "sexy and clean … floral but not too flowery."

"I am not a big perfume-y fragrance fan," she explained. "I want people to go 'what is that? You smell great!' But most of all, I wanted it to smell natural."

About fragrant beginnings


This article might be very boring lol i couldn't find an interesting one that i haven't already done.. i was also looking for an article on scents maybe which are the most popular/ which scents attract certain ppl, maybe i will have more luck next week.

Visualise this. As the sunlight filters through the windows, the fragrance of incense sticks wafts through the living room. Many people would vouch that this is one of the best ways of beginning the day. Incense sticks are a common motif in several religions across the world. To that extent, incense sticks have religious-aesthetic connotations in many cultures.


Fragrant incenses are made by blending several solid scented ingredients into a paste and then rolling that paste onto a bamboo core stick. These incenses usually contain little liquid scents. Charcoal incense is made by dipping an unscented “blank” into a mixture of perfumes and essential oils.

Tibetan incenses are thought to have medicinal properties.

Their recipes come from ancient Vedic texts that are based on Ayurvedic medical texts. The recipes have remained unchanged for centuries.

Throughout history, various materials have been used in making incense. If sage and cedar were used abroad to make these incense sticks, sandalwood is the most popular among all the flavoured incense sticks in India. It one of the most calming incense ingredients and lends itself to meditation.

Incense sticks are believed to be as old as mankind, which find mention in the Old Testament and New Testament. Frankincense was one of the gifts that the three wise men gave when Jesus was born. Ingredients like myrrh, jasmine, bamboo sticks and sandalwood used to make incense sticks were found in abundance in India.

Sanskrit texts mention agarbattis offered during meditation.

The concept extended to places like Egypt, Japan and China. Monks believed it frees them of negative energy. Once Buddhism became popular in Japan, the demand increased.

Sandalwood, rose, jasmine, cedar, amber, frankincense and myrrh are among the aromas which give spiritual fragrance to agarbattis. At a glance, lavender has a calming effect, sandalwood helps fighting depression, rose radiates energy of love and myrrh uplifts emotions.

In terms of practical usage, incense sticks help in getting rid of odours. Probably that’s why they are used in funerary ceremonies because incense could smother the scent of decay. Incense made from materials like citronella can repel mosquitoes.

Today, manufacturing incense sticks has become a handicraft industry.

Bruce Willis Fragrance to Hit Stores Today


I know you’ve all penned this day in your calendars, I know I’ve been waiting for this day a long time: Today, LR Health & Beauty Systems is debuting squinty tough guy Bruce Willis‘ “signature collection,” which he created in partnership with the German beauty company.

“I personally feel that the new Bruce Willis fragrance is the manliest scent in the world,” said Tilo Plöger, chief operating officer of LR Health & Beauty Systems. The Willis scent reportedly contains notes of grapefruit, pepper, and vetiver.


First announced in April, the collection includes hair and body wash, deodorant, aftershave balm, and eau de parfum–which clocks in at ~15% aromatic compounds compared to eau de cologne’s ~5%–since naturally, badasses need to smell strongly of badasses.

According to United Networker, Bruce Willis told reporters at the press conference in Frankfurt “with great enthusiasm” that “the development of my new fragrance together with the very committed and passionate LR team was really a lot of fun. The products stand for individuality, uniqueness and sustainability. That’s what convinced me, and what unites me with LR.”

The design of the perfume bottle, in the classy yet intrepid, indomitable, macho, rugged style expected of Willis, incorporates a huge metal badge which adorns “the exceptionally high-quality glass flacon,” which apparently is “heavy in the hand,” because John McClane would never use lightweight perfume bottles, damn it! And of course, the packaging mimics “brushed aluminium and embossed riveting

Victoria’s Secret Bombshells


Which girl doesnt lover Victoria Secret! psshh i know i do and i can never get enought of the bras, panties.. and even the pink line i love how they have those seasonal team outfits like the dodgers and angels..UCLA and USC. soo yeah too cute.


Victoria’s Secret has gone above and beyond mere branding: primetime fashion shows, affordable lingerie that has everyone from tweens to grandmothers picking through the racks, jet-setting angels, pink yoga pants, the only set of familiar faces in which “catalog” is synonymous with “supermodel,” 5 award winning fragrances—including all of the sets of scents you've collected over the years). Indeed, Victoria’s Secret(and the Giseles and Adrianas that come with it) has been able to target just about every demographic. And with the release of their newest fragrance, Bombshell, the winged retail chain is quickly becoming a heritage brand. It may also have something to do with Rosie Huntington-Whitely, the particular bombshell repping the new perfume.

digg Heritage brands create an aura that includes personality, social status, and history. When a customer buys a heritage item, they’re buying into that story. Victoria’s Secret has been smart in selling their brand this way, creating a narrative that’s further solidified with the release of their 8th fragrance, Bombshell. Judging by their product definition and their advertisements featuring Transformers 3 star Rosie Huntington-Whitely, it’s one that seems closest to their brand identity. And with fashion’s interest in a curvier silhouette—Lara Stone as a youthful Bardot, Bianca Balti bringing back Sofia Loren’s Italiano swagger—it seems like the perfect time to introduce a scent that recalls a more glamorous world of larger-than-life dames.

Wikipedia explains the origin and definition of bombshell:


“Bombshells are a special kind of sex symbol. Bombshells are popular icons recognized for their curves, sex appeal and larger than life personas. The term carries an implication of a voluptuous female sex icon. Some icons of popular culture who have widely been referred to as a “Bombshell” include Jean Harlow, who starred in the 1933 film Bombshell, Marilyn Monroe, Diana Dors, Jayne Mansfield, Mamie Van Doren, Jane Russell, Ava Gardner, Brigitte Bardot, Kim Novak, Sophia Loren, Ann-Margret, and Raquel Welch.

During World War II, “Bombshell Girl” referred to the “pinup” girls who were painted onto the sides of WWII planes, bombers, and their bombs. Such photos are now readily available on the internet and historical archives. Carefully maintained machinery was referred to with terms of endearment. The military allowed artists to create such work for amusement and recreational viewing in order to help boost morale for the pilots and other military personnel.”



To Victoria’s Secret, Bombshell by definition means:


“Strong and beautiful, with sex appeal to spare. A bombshell is bold and confident. Powerful, positive, and playfully unpredictable. A bombshell lights up the room with a wink and a smile. Glamour, mischief, drama—she loves it all. Because being a bombshell is about more than just a look, it’s an attitude—a sexy energy that comes from the inside.”

Who wouldn’t like to be called a bombshell, whereby, who wouldn’t want to shop at VS to become one? Nevermind the mass-produced cotton panties and drones of college-aged chicks strong-arming their way passed you for a peek at the yoga pants that spell “PINK” across the bum.

Whatever your feeling on what some might call another ‘drugstore mall brand,’ their positioning seems to be in the right place: they are making bank, and their name is as recognizable as ever. This is, in part, due to their carefully mapped out fragrance empire. If you look back through VS’s fragrance history—from those sticky-sweet middle school sprays, to your more recent lotion purchase—there’s always a girl, an icon made to symbolize the time period and trends during that specific period.

1991: Victoria
The fragrance empire begins with a gold and purple bottle.

1999: Dream Angels Heavenly
With a tanned and tawny Gisele in a set of feathery white wings, perched nude atop a white horse, the brand heralded their first blockbuster fragrance. It won a FiFi for Fragrance of the Year.

2001: Victoria’s Secret Pink
FiFi winner for Fragrance of the Year, the younger, collegiate crowd gravitated towards this new lifestyle brand, in which models like Alessandra Ambrosio looked cute and cozy in sweats and cotton panties.

2003: Very Sexy For Her
Again winning the FiFi Fragrance of the Year award, this line strived to created a rift between the cutesy Pink following, and those seeking sexy at VS—truly rounding out their multifaceted image.

2004:Very Sexy For Him
No awards here, just an excuse for men to shop while waiting for their girls to shop for lingerie—as if this excuse was necessary.

2009: Sexy Little Things Noir
Another FiFi Winner, this fragranced played upon the boudoir look with a vixenish Adriana Lima in dark lingerie and cascading black hair.

2010: Bombshell
Fruity, floral, and playful—VS tries to capture every facet of the biz with this well rounded and sexy scent.
