Your challenge for today: scent Patsy & Edina. Or anyone you like from Ab Fab — Saffy? Bubble?
I'm running late (as usual) and so haven't got an answer of my own. I meant to come up with suggestions last night, but hey, I was too busy watching TV. I'll try to think of something and add it to the comments later.
Extra bonus questions…
I am not generally a huge fan of action movies, but I've always loved James Bond. Today's challenge: name your favorite James Bond actor (the choices, for anyone who can't remember the entire line-up: Sean Connery, George Lazenby, Roger Moore, Timothy Dalton, Pierce Brosnan and Daniel Craig) and what fragrance you think their version of Bond would wear.
My Bond of choice is Roger Moore. I know you're supposed to prefer Sean Connery, but as I've said before, Moore is the Bond I “grew up with”. Daniel Craig, however, might be giving Moore a run for his money. I'm really looking forward to Quantum of Solace…
So, as we've already noted, Emma Watson is not going to be the new face of Chanel Coco Mademoiselle (or at least, not yet). Which is fine, as it leaves us open to imagine what fragrance her Harry Potter character, Hermione Granger, might wear.
Something young, intelligent and brave? Feminine, but not fussy or girly. Hermione would probably wear fragrance as an afterthought, if at all. I'm putting her in Hermès Osmanthe Yunnan, and I think the scent is perfect, although let's face it, the Hermione character would not be shopping in Hermès…
That’s right: two lazy polls in a row! That might be a Now Smell This first, but I’ve been inexplicably exhausted all this week, and can’t bring myself to finish another perfume review. This poll is for any of my fellow Janeites out there, and the rest of you will find it dull as nails so please come back tomorrow when Jessica will review the new Clean Well Hand Washes scented by Mandy Aftel of Aftelier.
So…I’m sure I’m not the only one who watched much of the recent Masterpiece Austen-fest on PBS. I enjoyed it immensely, not least because it was so much fun to sit on the couch eating chocolate and muttering under my breath at the “sexy” adaptations…
Kendall Hart, a character on the daytime soap opera All My Children (Pine Valley! She’s Erica Kane’s daughter!), will launch a new fragrance, Charm, this month…
