Posted by Robin on 20 October 2010 39 Comments

Michel Germain Sexual Sugar & Sugar Daddy

Michel Germain has launched Sexual Sugar for Women and Sugar Daddy for Men, two new fragrances under the tag line "hugs & kisses guaranteed".

Sexual Sugar ~ "Hugs and kisses are guaranteed with Sexual Sugar. It tempts and teases with a burst of mouthwatering, juicy wildberries and crystalized sugar. Sprinkled with the light freshness of orange water flower and sensual passion flower, it does the flirting for you. This is not your ordinary fragrance." The notes for the gourmand floral include wildberries, sugar coated orange zest, passion flower, orange blossom, jasmine, almond, vanilla creme brulee and sandalwood. In 75 or 125 ml Eau de Parfum.

Sugar Daddy ~ "Hugs and kisses guaranteed with sexual sugar daddy. A splash of crystalized grapefruit zest mixes with deliciously tempting cinnamon bark to irresistibly charm. Highly addictive caramelized pralines are packaged in a rich, sexy leather note and the bold masculinity of sweet tobacco accord. Infused with ancient aphrodisiacs, it does the flirting for you. This is not your ordinary fragrance." The notes for the oriental chypre include crystallized grapefruit zest, cinnamon, fir balsam, praline, lavender, patchouli, leather, sweet tobacco and sandalwood. In 75 or 125 ml Eau de Toilette.

Michel Germain Sexual Sugar and Sugar Daddy can be found now at Macy's or at the Michel Germain website. (via michelgermain, with many thanks to jonr951 for the tip!)

    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? 😉

    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.

    These sound just vile.

    And, those had better be some mighty powerful aphrodisiacs to compensate for that name.

    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…

    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!!

    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.

    They should package these with a pink thong for the girls and a money clip for the daddy’s.

      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!
