The Associated Press and AOL conducted a poll that placed Paris Hilton as the second “Worst Celebrity Role Model of 2006″, behind Brittney Spears. In 2007, Paris Hilton, model, actress, recording artist and author appeared in the Guinness Book of World Records as the world’s “Most Overrated Celebrity”. The Oxford Dictionary of Quotations added a quote in 2009 from Paris stating, “dress cute wherever you go, life’s to short to blend in”.
It doesn’t really matter what your opinion of Paris Hilton is, there is no denying the popularity of her women’s perfume. She started in 2004 with her involvement in the creation of the perfume line by Parlux Fragrances. Due to the sales of the Hilton-branded perfume, there was a 47% increase in sales of Parlux products. Since then, Paris has launched several more women’s perfume and men’s cologne.
I can’t say that I agree with alot of things about Paris Hilton, but, I have to admit that her line of women’s perfume is really nice, and the scents are very beautiful and maybe even sensual. So congratulations to Paris for her line of fragrances.
I worked today, 6:00 am to 2:00 pm, with one thing on my mind. I have tickets to the Detroit Red Wings game. It was so hard to keep my mind on my work.
I finally get home, I shower, I put my makeup on and my favorite women’s perfume, red door. Of course my husband says how nice I look and how good I smell, of course he has to, so he thinks. But he can’t understand why I went all out for a hockey game. Can’t a women just look and smell good just because they want to?
So it’s Friday morning and you just can’t quit thinking about the date you have for tonight. Not just any date but a blind date. It is the first time you have gone on a blind date and boy are you nervous, where are we going, what to wear and how should I wear my hair.
My first and only blind date was so nerve racking. I knew that we were going to a party but didn’t know what kind. I remember being very apprehensive about what kind of women’s perfume to wear, or if I should wear any at all. As it turned out I did wear inspire perfume, however, the party and the date was a flop. I have not even entertained the thought of going on a blind date since. However, I did fall in love with the perfume.
So Valentines Day is right around the corner and I have never actually told my husband what I wanted for Valentines Day because I have always figured that it meant more coming from him. However, this year I’m going to have to slip a few hints, because lets face it chocolate only goes so far.
My idea of the perfect Valentines Day, start the day with breakfast in bed, next a small box of chocolate with one single carnation (red) and a small bottle of Red Door perfume that I can wear to dinner. Dinner will be at a very quite and exquisite restaurant so we can spend a nice romantic evening together. That would be perfect.
Have you ever really looked forward to attending a party only to find out when you get there that every women in the place is wearing a different scent. Rather it be women’s perfume or scented lotions, it can be a bit over bearing.
I went to such a party, and was so not impressed with all the different perfumes that women wear and to the extent that they apply this perfume. I am a firm believer that when you walk out of a room your scent should go with you, not linger in the room until you come back. And if you are going to wear women’s perfume don’t wear scented lotion, that is a big no no!
Ladies, when you apply your perfume try just a little on your pulse points, like your wrists and neck. If you are not sure how much to put on try spraying a little on a cotton ball and applying it that way.
Strangely enough, according to Dr. Alan Hirsch of Chicago Smell and Taste Treatment and Research Foundation, you can buy women’s perfume, lotion and powder with the scent of pink grapefruit and appear to be 12 years younger or even 6 pounds lighter. Testers were all male and said that women would appear to be younger through their eyes.
Now obviously wearing pink grapefruit perfume will not take the place of dieting and exercising however, wouldn’t you try any help you were offered? I know I would, especially just after the holidays.
Not all perfumes smell good; some are too strong or too fruity, while others are simply repugnant. One of my personal favorites is Chanel Chance, which is blended perfectly so that the scents are just right. Everyone responds differently to scents and has their own particular preferences, so experiment and see what is right for you.
When wearing perfume, you have to remember a few things:
1. A little goes a long way. Nothing is worse than over spraying.
2. When you’re going to buy a perfume, don’t spray it into the air. Spritz a little on your skin so you can find the perfect scent for you.
3. Do not dab perfume behind your ears. The scent might mingle with skin secretions and smell bad.
4. Apply your perfume after your bath, that way, your pores are still open and will soak up the scent.
Is it really any wonder that Byonce Knowles finally launches her own women’s perfume? Several female singers such as Mariah Carey, Faith Hill and Brittney Spears have their own fragrances, it was really only a matter of time.
Over the last few years Byonce has appeared in perfume advertisements for other designers from Armani to Tommy Hilfiger. Her perfume, Heat, comes packaged in a red triangle bottle and will be released in U.S. stores in February 2010 before going international next summer.
Remember when designer perfume was an expensive commodity? Now people are wiser about their shopping choices and there is a flood of perfume buying options that we should all take advantage of. Designer labels like Magnifique perfume are now available at far cheaper prices that people could have ever thought before.
And, you know, they still smell the same as when you wanted them, they are just far less expensive. The online industry has really turned shopping on its head and you have the opportunity to field the many choices for perfume and smell exactly like the most beautiful models and actresses.
