In 1977, Yves Saint Laurent caused quite the commotion with the launch of his fragrance, OPIUM. In September, actress Emily Blunt was announced as the new face of this iconic fragrance – this is the first time she has worked with a fragrance and actually being the face of a brand.

Now, on December 4th, the new television commercial will be debuting world-wide, and we’ve got you a sneak peek of behind the scenes.

Almost every month we’re being notified about the launch of a “celebrity” fragrance. Most of the time we’re kinda thinking, “whatever.” But, today is different. Today, we have learnt that the queen of pop herself is entering the fragrance world early next year (with the help of cosmetics giant Coty Inc.). (more…)

Womanity is the latest fragrance offering from designer Thierry Mugler.

Womanity “epitomizes a new feminine force: the influence and energy of women coming together.” Mugler may never duplicate the incredible success he received with his innovative and industry-changing “Angel” of 1992, but in Womanity, he attempts to again break new ground. A faceted fragrance, Womanity is comprised of diametrical notes and unexpected bold combinations.

We would describe Womanity as dynamic, unexpected and complex. And three women we feel embody the fragrance are: Lady Gaga, Ellen Degeneres and Meryl Streep.

Lady Gaga, without question is dynamic – bold, flashy, and above-all conspicuous. Not timid or understated, she pefectly sums up the lively side of Womanity. Ellen Degeneres is unexpected in many ways: a surprising spokesperson for cosmetics; a mix of funny and serious and socially outspoken. Thirdly, Meryl Streep epitomizes the complex side of Womanity. From sweet to fearless to brash, this actress can conjure up any nuance or emotion conceivable.

For us, Womanity is a clever combination of opposite addictions: sweet and savoury. Like chocolate-covered pretzels that at first seem odd, the combination is irresistable and keeps you wanting more. A little out-of-the-ordinary and not for the timid, Womanity takes a little bit of every woman and combines all these qualities into a distinctive fragrance not to be ignored.
