Sexual Sugar OK, but Sugar Daddy? Sounds both very sweet. I can’t imagine a man wearing a scent that is callerd Sugar Daddy. But who am I…….
“Sugar Daddy” being an American slang term for a man, usually older, who provides all kinds of material luxuries for his mistress – a luxury apartment, furs, clothes, jewelry, and other goodies.
But you’re right. Ewwww.
Caramel with leather could work though….might not be *too* sweet.
“Sexual Sugar”?! I guess “Sexual Chocolate” was already taken, huh?
Or the next flanker?
I’m sure that one is coming
I was wondering the same thing. I always thought a Sugar Daddy was a lover secured solely or primarily for his willingness to provide financial support to a younger, hotter, woman, who otherwise would not be interested in him. In short, the Sugar Daddy is usually a chump.
It’s all a matter of perspective…doubt everyone sees the relationship that way.
There can be relationships between older men and younger women based upon something other than an exchange of youth and looks for cash, but then those guys would not be “sugar daddies”
And there are plenty of sugar daddies that know exactly what they’re getting into. The trade off is that you get a pretty young thing (male or female) to have around. If some of my relatives are any indication (and they are) some men will pay a lot of money to have someone they know doesn’t love them hanging off their arm.
Ewww, ewww, ewww, ewww!
Zackly.
It doesn’t appeal to me either, but clearly this avenue is working for Michel Germain!
yeah, I’d like to add a few “eww ewws” to your comment Kitty….
ewww, ewww, ewww, ewww!
These sound just vile.
And, those had better be some mighty powerful aphrodisiacs to compensate for that name.
LOL! I am with you.
i know everyone is trying to sell sex, but putting “sexual” in the title just seems like they utterly gave up
Yeah, it’s like a shirt open to low and a bad come on, like they want to repel you away from this scent…
Classy.
LOL!
I suppose it makes me some sort of haggard old perverted woman, but I have never found fruit and/or vanilla to be in the least bit sexy.
JF, I almost laughed my coffee all over my screen when I read, “haggard old perverted woman.”
And no, I don’t find fruit with vanilla sexy either!
I agree.
Vanilla can add a little depth. However, when prominent, it always seems either homey to me, or very young girlish. I remember a scene in some old movie (possibly the Heart is a Lonely Hunter, based on the Carson McCullers novel) in which a shy, small town fourteen year old girl puts some drops of vanilla behind her ear before a “date” in an attempt to seem sophisticated and perfumed. Of course, it makes her seem all the more young.
Of course, youthful innocence is fine image for a perfume to invoke, but it is not “sexual sugar.”
It may not sound sexy, but it does sound yummy! To eat, not to wear. Almonds and creme brulee, mmmm!!
The bottles are sorta cute in a ‘Jetson’s’ kind of way.
As my mom would say, “Gag me with a backhoe.” Impolite phrase, but quite fitting in the circumstance.
If they’re going to be truthful with their advertising, shouldn’t the male in the Photo Copy be about 40 years older? I bet this concoction will fly off the shelves for all those 50+ men going through a “mid-life crisis”….
Miss Kitty V. got it right…..”ewwwww”!
Well… I’m slowly but surely inching my way towards the 50+ mark and …..NO!
It could be the best juice in the world, the name alone will keep me away.
I’m firmly in the “Ewwww” camp.
“This is not your ordinary fragrance.” ***laughs and laughs and laughs***
You never know, but this doesn’t sound like something I’m interested in sniffing. Agree with ladida that the bottles are kind of cute, though.
Oh, I KNOW. I was too busy snarking about “Sugar Daddy” up there, but the phrase killed me.
They should package these with a pink thong for the girls and a money clip for the daddy’s.
: DDDD soon they will promote you to their marketing director
Zing!
But in the end, the Sugar Daddy gets the pink thong and the Sugar Sex girl gets the $’s.
Or maybe the Sugar Daddy gets the pink thong, the Sugar Sex girl gets the ring, but no before Sugar Daddy’s First Wife gets the $,
I saw the names of these two fragrances and immediately began looking forward to the 2011 Le Prix Eau Faux.
Of course there’s the obvious option of not saying what this is really called. But I just imagine being asked what I’m wearing, with a name like this!
Sugar Daddy is a fantastic fragrance and both women and men enjoying wearing it. I love it!
Wow, 37 comments…and Still looking for a concrete review…Has anyone smelled the perfume yet??…it is in Macy’s now…
I believe I should say…has anyone ELSE smelled it yet…
