Mariah Carey is going through a lollipop period. No more butterflies, the lady is on some sort of candy spree now. So Mariah Carey is launching not one, not two, but three different perfumes under the name Lollipop Bling. There’s a red, a blue and a yellow one (each with, go figure, a butterfly cap). [...]

The other day, I was asking myself what is the concentration of magazine – mainstream-ness in my artistic self. And I was puzzled by the question, since it involves an important number of criteria to take into consideration. Today it’s time for yet another episode of my mainstream or not quest. Going through the fashinterwebs, [...]

Have you heard that one? The nice people from Bronx Zoo have tested quite a few fragrances with their big big wild cats. None of the 23 tested perfumes proved to be as interesting for the cheetah cats as Calvin Klein’s Obsession for Men. The cats spent more than 10 minutes sniffing the CK perfume [...]

The best I’ll get when I close my eyes and think about a perfume is a flower. A moment in time. A sensation I experienced while smelling that perfume.

It’s something I depicted from a very close cousin who opened my eyes [...]

You know how I imagine art projects? Especially ones with (at least) Shalimar’s magnitude? I imagine there’s a lineup of artists (more or less qualified) submitting their projects proposals, in an auction, to a special committee and then the winner is carefully, thoroughly and rigorously selected. Some of the latest artistic collaborations going on in [...]

Time has passed and we’re at that moment again: another celebrity is launching yet another perfume. With yet another highly elaborated retouched ad print to represent the perfume in question. Jessica Simpson goes for a catchy name like Fancy Nights for her (already?) third perfume (all Fancy – something). It’s an evening perfume, with notes [...]
