Can cologne be bipolar magnet? Aroma Kouros proves that it can cause both adoration, and bright hostility.
This aroma is very ambiguous. This aroma is proud that it has come from “sweet eightieth”. It has its “face” unlike other aromas. In XXI century this aroma became so rare that it can become signature scent - aroma, which you will distinguish from all others.
Yves Saint-Laurent has decided to create aroma, having visited Poseidon temple in Greece, on coast of Aegean Sea. He has sketched white marble columns under the scorching sun and the blue sky and gradually these ideas have turned into the white bottle (author Alain de Mourgues), which we know today. Name Kouros has also come from ancient Greek history. Such name was usually given to marble figures of the brawny naked guys - their naked muscles became an image of aroma.
Kouros - is athletic aroma from the epoch, when shoulders of men were wide, a breast - hairy, and man’s perfumery - powerful and French. Spices in man’s aromas were made without water freshness and caramel. Neither Antaeus (Chanel), Quorum (Puig), nor Santos de Cartier could compete with it. Kouros may remind of Giorgio (Giorgio Beverli Hills), Opium (YSL), Nombre Noir (Shiseido)

With arrival of colds all women are seriously thinking about new fur things. A fur coat or a short fur jacket? The Lynx or a sable, a short-haired mink or caracul, the fox or a raccoon, an ermine or a beaver?
We hope, that each our reader has already solved this question according to her age, taste and a purse. We shall harmonize the selected fur with suitable “winter” aromas.
Furs have fine property - to keep a pleasant smell of perfumes for a long time. They hold aroma much longer, because strands of wood have a porous scaly surface. From here the first simple rule comes - do not put on fur coats the first got attractive aroma on test. Your opinion can soon change, but will be already late: the smell “will seize” furs up to a following dry-cleaner. Up to a fur coat it is necessary to suppose only well familiar and favorite aromas. However, if you like perfumery “cacophony” on sleeves, you can put on furs, going to perfumery shop, and by turns to try all novelties on wrists.
Here is the list of the most famous winter perfumes: female Cabochard (Gres) and Chypre Noir (Ava Luxe), Antimatiere (LesNez Parfums), man’s Bel Ami (Hermes), Temujin (Kanebo) and Yatagan (Caron).
Forget about any special recommendations. Having chosen perfume in shop, walk on frosty street. For “winter” aromas the temperature mode is more important: they should work in the big difference of temperatures.
Let’s finish besides a simple rule: perfumes may destroy structure of fur. There are two ways out: to put aroma on a scarf or to recollect about a half-forgotten elegant way of drawing of scented water - to scatter two-rub times in air before you and to pass through this fragrant cloud.

Suits from London street Savile Row is a parameter of English conservatism, and though company Richard James has lodged in this citadel of taste only in 1992, nevertheless it perfectly represents stiffness of Foggy Albion, and the modern approach to classical clothes. New series of aromas Richard James Collection differs by modern approach.
The collection, which has been released in 2007, includes three colognes - Cologne Lavender, Cologne Vetiver and Cologne Cardamom. They continue a line, started in 2006 by cologne Richard James Cologne. Therefore it is necessary to start the description with their common “parent” - freshening citron cologne. it has taken citruses, a lavender from classics and popular sea note Calone (it is similar to a smell of the cut water-melon), and also pink pepper and cardamom - from the present. This cologne will approach to those men, who is not satisfied with classical colognes (for example, Eau d `Oranges Vertes Hermes), or those, who prefers fashionable novelties.
However, Cologne Lavender is intended for the young men, appreciating healthy conservatism. What can be more conservatively and more neutrally English lavender? However, perfumer Yves Cassar, responsible for all brand’s aromas has brought a classical bouquet “the lavender, vervain, beans” into warm spicy accent of fragrant pepper and a wood chord of cedar and cypress.
Cologne Cardamom - is fresh spicy cologne, which sweet-sour start reminds of transparent yellow sugar candies. Cologne Vetiver – is the most modern version of colognes on the basis of vetiver.

In 1947 fashion house Christian Dior has represented its first aroma Miss Dior. John Galliano, the art-director of the House, who has worked in it for 10 years, has decided to celebrate these anniversaries not only by magnificent carnival with new collection Dior Couture - Fall 2007, but also with perfumery private collection La Collection Particuliere Christian Dior.
The trio of new aromas is devoted to Christian Dior’s favorite models, or, it is better to say, to his muses, who brought success to the fashionable House. These aromas are Passage â„–4, Passage â„–8, Passage â„–9 - under numbers of collections or outputs. Besides, each aroma is devoted to favorite flavors: iris rose and tuberose and so called “flower-jewelry” for each theme.
Passage â„–4 France (France) is devoted to Dior’s top-model France. This blonde embodied real Parisian. Next aroma is devoted to the Rose- to beauty with the sharp thorns, demanding due respect. The spicy rose is oily and spicy: fragrant peppers with orange nuance in retinue do of the Rose Queen. Though this spicy acuteness does not push away and does not prick; spices, as security guards’ halberds, hint at possible bloodshed.
Bottles of Dior’s private collection - are the traditional Dior amphora of modern design, they are, as well as in middle of XX century, are made of crystal Baccarat, but now they are supplied by with a spray. They are patriotically painted in colors of the French flag. And certainly, the color bottle is pink and red.

Not often even the most famous owner of the collector of elite alcohol may brag to “haute couture” - just because such drinks are quite rare. However, known designer Roberto Cavalli is ready to correct it. After successful release of vodka Roberto Cavalli Italian designer continues to expand sphere of his activity and starts in sale at once two new brands of wine.
The idea of business, when under mark of the known design house elite alcohol is released, is not as much original, as actual and profitable. Wine by Cavalli stands to win, possessing the same opportunity (as Cavalli’s extravagant things) to turn into certain fetish.
At once two brands have a print of a hand of the maestro: Cavalli Cоllection and Cavalli Selection. Grapes from, which wine is made, is grown up in gardens of family estate Tenuta degli Dei, located in Tuscany. To a word, from the grapes grown up there a lot of known wines are made.
Wine business belongs to Roberto’s son, and, according to the designer, according to an initial plan belonging it, wine should not be connected with surname Cavalli.
Bottles will be represented in leopard style, and on a label the trade mark of mark will flaunt. The first party will be sold only in territory of Tuscany. Then wine will be represented to England, Germany, and Switzerland, and later to the USA.

Respectable House Guerlain has aimed at purses and credit cards of its clients. Its new aroma Quand Vient la Pluie will be released in an exclusive variant and the limited quantity - only fifty bottles will be decorated by gold and crystals Swarovski.
Paying 2100 euros, you can get not just aroma in concentration extract, but the Work of art, which price eventually will grow only if the bottle remains unopened.
Massclusivity is one of last tendencies noticed at the perfumery the market. It is reaction of the market to a situation, when everything became accessible. It is based on desire of rich consumers to be allocated on the general background and the offers of manufacturer’s lux-segment adequating to this demand. New aroma Quand Vient la Pluie is doomed to popularity because it combines all popular tendencies of 2007: fresh bright flowers (a jasmine) with light herbals, wooden theme (praline), and powder chord (violet). Certainly, mass bottles (160-250 euros) will provide the basic sales volumes. The exclusive variant puts accent on a rectangular crystal pedestal with proveins, as if on the leaf, works of Serge Mansau and a bottle decorated by gold and crystals Swarovski (2100 euros).
The name reminds at once of two aromas of nice history of the House: Après l `Ondee (After the Downpour) and Quand Vient l`Ete (When the Summer Comes).
Quand vient la pluie - according to the press release - is the poetry in prose and aroma of a summer garden under the rain.
Quand Vient la Pluie - Guerlain (Thierry Wasser, 2007). Bergamot, rosemary; heliotrope, violet, jasmine; patchouli plant, praline, musk.

Do you know, whether there is anything in common between fashion and policy? While you puzzle over searches of numerous possible variants, we inform: the daughter of the ex-president of France Jacque Chirac became director on public relations of group PPR, which owns such brands as Gucci, Yves Saint Laurent and Balenciaga. Sometimes Especially successful representatives of business storm political heights. But Claude Chirac has gone in the opposite direction and it is really obvious. It would be ridiculous to assume, that she would feel better in administration of the new president of France. And business relies not only in vital bonds, but also in the role that Claude played Chirac during all time of father’s board. She was real Jacque Chirac’s right hand. And all has started with brilliant presidential campaign of 1995. It has been organized by Claude and the second campaign was also her business.
Professional pr-manager, Claude Chirac, has finished prestigious institute Pilhan. Then she worked in advertising agency RSCG, and then - in the mayoralty of Paris (at that time her father was the town governor). And after Jacque Chirac’s victory over presidential elections she became his press-secretary. Chirac is obliged by many victories to his daughter. She, as true PR-manager, has even chosen suits for him. Here, you it is possible to see Claude’s passion to a fashion. But all is much more interesting.
It appears that PPR’s founder of Francois Pinault - is Jacque Chirac’s close friend. It is no wonder, why Claude has stopped a choice on this company though she has more tempting offers.

The full name of aroma reminds a sequel of the Hollywood movie: Eau de Protection Rossy de Palma. And a name of known Spanish actress Rossy de Palma is not occasional. This aroma opens a new collection of aromas - aromas for “stars”.
However, the general concept has not changed - chosen “stars” are not well-known heroes of the foreground. More likely these “stars” surprise with the color and singularity.
Rossy de la Palma has chosen a theme of a rose, the favorite flower for the aroma. It is fine and womanly, it asks for protection, but it is also so much independent.
Spicy, bright and hot rose, soft and oily Bulgarian pink oil - but with blood and fire, the rose is prickly and with black pepper. The beginning of aroma is a “women on the verge of nervous failure”, nerves and stress, an internal pressure and aggression. Citron aroma of a bergamot is added by citric zinziber. The corpulent sated aroma does not excite and does not freshen, but it just pierces. But soon thorns disappear and corpulent and warmed by the sun a rose, quiet and calming the associates, weighed and judicious mother of family comes. This rose is ordinary and tamed. This transformation occurs because of spicy earthy, a sweet green geranium and vanilla. But what remains from a former rose? Proud neck and feminity.
Unlike the previous aromas in identical glass parallelepipeds, bottle Eau de Protection has got a decor in the form of a dragon. On a box the black Chinese dragon and a magnificent bright red rose is represented.
Eau de Protection Rossy de Palma - Etat Libre d ` Orange (Antoine Lie, Antoine Maisondieu, 2007). A rose, zinziber, cardamom, black pepper, a jasmine, a geranium, cocoa.
