Tommy Hilfiger will launch his annual summer variations on Tommy and Tommy Girl in February:
Tommy Summer 2010 (shown) ~ features salt wind accord, clary sage, cliff jasmine, spider plant (added later: or spider lily? the original is Grünlilie), patchouli and cedar.
Tommy Girl Summer 2010 ~ with notes of bergamot, acacia, apricot blossom, amber and cedar.
Tommy Hilfiger Tommy Summer & Tommy Girl Summer 2010 will be available in 100 ml Eau de Toilette. (via pinkmelon.de)
Spider plant?
I like acacia.
I kind if like the sound of these, though. I’m a Hilfiger virgin – I don’t know the line.
Tommy Girl is a very pleasant scent, and pretty summery anyway. The summer LEs are usually ok, nothing startingly unique or anything but fine.
“Spider plant???” was my first thought too, Tama. I have a flower bed full … maybe it’s something different in perfumery.
Maybe I’m wrong…see comment below.
The men’s sounds like it could be rather interesting…hope I see it around somewhere. Not likely to seek it out, but curious anyway.
It’ll be at Macys, I’m sure.
*runs off to smell kitchen spider-plant*
Maybe they just closest houseplant in reach? I wonder what prompted that.
I am translating from the German, and I don’t speak German. The word is Grünlilie, which at a basic level is “green lily”, but after spending some time w/ different online translators seemed to be most frequently translated as spider plant. Perhaps that’s utterly wrong!
You know, maybe it’s spider lily. I’ll make a note.
Hi Robin, I found in my garden book the latin name for “Grünlilie”. It is called “Chlorophytum”. Maybe it helps you.
Thanks! That is the same family as spider plants, but the family includes many other plants as well. So who knows!
excuse me, I meant maybe they just *used* the closest houseplant in reach
The only TH I have and wear is Dreaming. I had a co-worker who’d take a bath in Tommy Girl, so I really can’t stand it now. That’s unfortunate, because it really isn’t a bad fragrance.
I had some sort of spider fern hanging basket plant when I was in college, but I don’t recall it smelling like anything particular but “green and living plant.” Until my cat (a kitten at the time) realized she could leap off a shelf, swing by the basket and tear off bits of it at a time. I finally had to mount another plant hook out of her reach before she killed the poor thing.
You’d really have to work at it to overwear Tommy Girl, that’s too bad!
