J del Pozo Halloween Kiss Sexy ~ new perfume

Posted by Robin on 28 September 2009 27 Comments

Jesús Del Pozo has launched Halloween Kiss Sexy, a fruity floral gourmand follow-up to last year's Halloween Kiss:

KISS Sexy is a fragrance full of nuances: live freshness, floral and woody, but above all it is carnal and sensual. Sexy notes from the harmoniously fruity top notes: lively freshness of green apple, lemon and peach juice. Romantic notes in the heart of our fragrance made up of a romantic floral bouquet of peony, freesia and cyclamen. And the carnal passion of the bottom notes with sandalwood and musk. A passionate composition for the most sensual fragrance by J. del Pozo.

Like Halloween Kiss, Halloween Kiss Sexy was developed by perfumer Christophe Raynaud.

J del Pozo Halloween Kiss Sexy will be available in 30, 50 and 100 ml Eau de Toilette. (via press release)

    Hey, just what we needed – a fruity, floral gourmand!

      As long as people keep buying them, they’re going to keep coming…I think the J del Pozo Halloween series aims at a young market.

        I was wondering who their target market was. I sniffed a bunch of these a while back and was seriously underwhelmed. They reminded me of some cheap stuff I used to get at Penney’s in the 80’s called Samba–they had a whole line of fruity floral flankers.

        All that aside, I expect something edgier from something called Halloween. I wish they wouldn’t besmirch the name of my favorite holiday. :(

          Maybe they want it to reflect the green apple, lemon and peach Jolly Ranchers the kids might get in their Halloween candy bags.

            Sadly, if it were all fruity and no floral, like a Jolly Rancher, I might like it better.

    Ugh…I have a hard time finding green apple, lemon and peach juice SEXY! Fruit salad is not sexy. ;0

      Not my idea of sexy either, but I guess the gajillion fans of D&G Light Blue et al would disagree.

      I agree. This mix sounds more like an organic mix you make “from ingredients already in your kitchen” to fight age spots on the backs of your hands…..whip some mayo into it and you’ve got a rejuvenating facial mask!

        And I’m thinking with mayo it’s one step away from a delicious Waldorf salad.

    When I think of a Hallowe’en kiss, I think of those little molasses things in the orange wrappers with pictures of witches and jack o’lanterns on them. Not so sexy. (Although come to think of it, the only Hallowe’en costumes they seem to make for women any more are whore nurse, whore cop, whore vampire, whore devil, whore cowgirl, whore pirate, and French maid. Is it because society demands that women dress so primly in their daily lives, covered up from head to toe, that the only time they can show a little bit of skin is on October 31st?)

    And yeah, we sure did need another fruity floral gourmand scent!

      Regarding whore costumes, the following is one of my favorite columns by a favorite columnist: http://tinyurl.com/38gb5u

      Do you do the whole Halloween thing in Canuckistan?

        Oh, you bet we do! It’s pretty much exactly the same as in the U.S.: kids dress up and go door-to-door for candy, lots of adults dress up and have drunken parties. Although since Canada on the whole is somewhat colder than the U.S., Hallowe’en costumes for kids tend to be on the generous side, because there is every chance that there will be snow on the ground by October 31st and you need room inside there for a snowsuit, and no, I am actually not kidding.

        In Halifax, the biggest city east of Montreal, it’s a really huge deal: people make elaborate time-consuming costumes (though nothing quite as mad as Carnaval in Rio, obviously), and there are just MOBS of people downtown, either to show off their costumes or to watch the costumed partiers.

        Well, they used to, anyway, when I lived there. It’s been a while. Maybe nowadays they just go out and get drunk.

        That article was so funny. I especially found the ‘whore-angel’ costume idea absurd and amusing. Alas, I have been guilty of dressing up as a ‘slutty witch’ on more than one Halloween. I have to admit, it was fun. LOL

          Sadly, I have also been guilty of the trifecta – “slutty witch”, “slutty vampire” and “slutty angel” costumes. Actually, I’d have to say that they were probably more on the sexy end of the sexy — slutty —- whore continuum, because I never wore anything that was both low-cut and short. And I haven’t done it for many, many years (since my late-20s) – now I stick with scary costumes.

            Cynthia and I wore our slutty costumes in a tasteful manner. :-)

            That’s what I was going for – I was a *tastefully* slutty witch/angel/vampire.

            I’ve also done the tasteful slutty Halloween costume–usually consisting of the LBD, leopard coat, and cat ears. My lazy version of dressing as a cat. So I’m going to stand behind my assertion that it’s because I’m lazy, not a whore. Or I’m a lazy whore. You pick.

            Plus, “scary” takes hardly any effort on my part these days…!

    Oh yes, this is the epitome of “carnal and sensual”. *rolling eyes*

    In the photo, the woman looks as though she’s about to smash the bottle against a wall and then use it to stab him in the back.

    I so hope we get this in Australia but it’s doubtful, it’s so pretty and pink :-)
