Giorgio Armani Si EDP Perfume Review

Armani Si EDp

Mainstream Monday: Sniffing a Popular Perfume

I’ve been in a perfume funk where nothing new has really interested me but there have been some expectations.¹ Before this “Late Summer 2016 Reawakening”, I can only think of a few new things that I felt like wearing. Oddly enough, one of the things that I’ve enjoyed wearing over the past 2 years has been a designer perfume, Giorgio Armani Si.

Giorgio Armani Code Pour Homme EDT Fragrance Review

Armani Code Pour Homme

 

Mainstream Monday – Sniffing a Popular Perfume

It’s my birthday today, so I’m already feeling old. But, this fragrance is really making me feel old. I can’t believe that Armani Code was launched over a decade ago. I feel like this is one of those masculines that just came out, but geez, that was ELEVEN YEARS AGO! Yes, there have been many flankers, but I clearly remember this one launching in stores (so many ads in magazines too). And I clearly remembering smelling… Continue reading | 12 Comments

Today, I’m taking a brief break from fragrance and quickly reviewing a new lipstick that I bought last week.

First things first, I love Armani lipsticks. They make some of my favorite “nudes” and reds. I usually use Rouge d’Armani but hey, I couldn’t resist Rouge Ecstasy. I’m finally feeling some inspiration again. I’m… Continue reading | 7 Comments

The Lipstick League – week of 6.23.14

Question of the Week: Which lip color do you reach for when you’re in need of a pick-me-up?

EauMG’s Answer: I do love lipstick. I guess I usually reach for a red like Armani Rouge d’Armani in 400 or Revlon Super Lustrous in Fire & Ice. But, I do like lots of bold lip colors.
