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.
I’m rather curious, why is it that TV commercials feel the need to use half naked women to sell women’s designer perfume? Could it be that the name alone is not enough? Elizabeth Arden, Christina Aguilera and Sarah Jessica Parker to mention just a few, could not sell otherwise, I doubt it.
Now men’s cologne seems to sell better by their name alone, or am I just missing those commercials? Anyway, I think it only fair for commercials to advertise the same with the men, Tim McGraw to name just one.
So, I’m watching my favorite NFL team, Pittsburg Steelers, on Sunday cheering for all I’m worth because I love football and I want them to go to the playoffs. Wow, they win, however, they still aren’t going to the playoffs, so disappointing. Now I’m so upset that I feel the need to go shopping.
I have decided that in order to cheer me up I need to buy something for me, something I really love and will make me feel better. I really love fragrances so I decide to buy some perfume. Next question is what kind, not a problem because I love the smell of Chanel Chance and really love the way I feel when I’m wearing it. There may be no hope for Pittsburg this year but I smell good.
In 1985 Paul Sebastian launched their first women’s perfume, Design. Although Paul Sebastian is considered a cologne brand for men, they also offer women’s perfume. Design perfume, the first of several offered by Paul Sebastian, is classified as a refreshing, floral and soft fragrance.
Even though Paul Sebastian Inc. was sold in 1999 to FFI Fragrances, including Design, Casual, Cigar Aficionado and Paul Sebastian Fine Cologne, they still continue to thrive as a well established name brand.
I’ve always been a fan of hockey, football and basketball and thought it was rather interesting when
Tony Parker and Eva Longoria got married. Honestly, I didn’t think it would last, don’t know why for sure, but I didn’t. However, it is refreshing to see them still together.

Eva’s new fragrance is due out in the U.S. in the spring according to Women’s Wear Daily.
