Elie Saab Launches Debut Fragrance

The Lebanese designer Elie Saab decided to move scentward two years ago and has been working on his debut scent ever since. He did make his fans wait some, but finally the fragrance is ready and will be launched this summer.

The fragrance with an unostentatious name of Le Parfum was developed by Francis Kurkdjian, who is known for his collaboration with Jean Paul Gaultier over Le Male. Kurkdjian’s idea for Saab’s debut is an exquisite blend of flower and wood aromas arrived at by mixing jasmine, rose honey, orange blossom, cedar, and patchouli.

Le Parfum will be on sale starting July, available in 30, 50 and 90 ml bottles and a set of body products.

The face for the ad campaign is supermodel Anja Rubik posing on a New York street, maybe not far from the place where she was shot but recently, ensconced with her boyfriend model Sasha Knezevic atop a New York taxi for ads for DKNY’s latest fragrance.

Violent Lips Temporary Tattoos

What started with nails has moved on to lips, and it may be that lips of just one color will soon be considered definitely out, an old-fashioned setup without due regard to modern artistic possibilities. To be in the vanguard of le dernier cri you can try Violent Lips – the “temporary tattoos” that adorn your lips with patterned design.

How about wearing animal prints on your lips (including some wacky ones like pink leopard pattern), make them out in rainbow colors or polka dots? It may sound a bit fresh when you first think of it, but there’s no doubt that it will be the very thing as part of an outfit for a dancing party where your violently patterned lips are gonna strike the right note. The designs are reported to hold up to eight hours and are easy to remove.

Deo Perfume Candy

The experts of one of the biggest Bulgarian confectioneries have presented a unique new product: it is an unusual candy which gives a wonderful sweet smell to any lady who eats it. Thus, at the same time it acts as a kind of perfume.

As the producers explain, its action is based on the same principle as the smell of garlic. Of course, the fragrance, which appears in the case of eating the candy, is much more enjoyable for people around.

Thus, according to the expectations of the developers, the new product with an attractive name Deo Perfume Candy should replace traditional deodorants and other types of perfumes. Such an unusual effect, as the authors of the invention describe, is achieved due to the presence of confectionary substance which is called geraniol. In natural conditions, it is also present in some essential oils, such as lavender or vanilla.

At the same time, unusual candies are safe for women’s figure: instead of natural sugars which contain a large amount of calories, these candies are produced with the use of natural alternatives of sugar. Moreover, the experts note that the idea of using geraniol for such purposes is not new, despite the fact of this product being really innovative. In Japan, a special chewing gum is already sold to give each customer a chance to reach the effect of the perfume and make the smell of the body more pleasant.

Liv Tyler for Givenchy

Liv Tyler has been working with the Givenchy Fashion House for quite a while now. While previously she has been mainly representing the brand’s fragrances, this time she will be the face of the Givenchy mascara.

It seems that the idea of using black lace to promote mascara is well-accepted by consumers. At least, many brands are exploiting this image when advertising their mascaras. For example, both Dior and Maybelline feature the lacy theme in their mascara ad campaigns.

Liv Tyler also supports this idea. In the ad for Givenchy mascara she wears a luxurious, tight, black lace dress. Not surprisingly, eyelashes are the focus of the attention, which are supposed to cast lacy shadows on the face. Perfect skin and nude makeup on lips and cheeks make ideal background for the actress’ luxurious eyelashes.

This campaign is different from the autumn makeup collection campaign from Givenchy (season Fall-Winter 2011) featuring Jacquelyn Jablonski as the leading model, which makes significantly more emphasis on the makeup rather than the model.
