Mainstream Monday – Sniffing a Popular (Limited Edition) Perfume

AND The Beach Eaus – A Month of Sniffing Beach & Ocean Inspired Perfumes

I’m not going to get into all of my weird phobias, but I will say this, a cruise is my personal version of hell. I’m not judging anyone that enjoys them. I’m just saying that I have issues and it’s like a cruise combines all of my phobias and has the audacity of charging me money for it.

The newest limited edition summer Mugler Angel flanker is “cruise water”… Continue reading

Envoyage Vents Ardents EDP Perfume Review

May 28, 2014

Envoyage Vents Ardents

Envoyage created two “beach scents” and I get the impression that they were designed for beach weddings or for those that wish they could have had a beach wedding! I have reveiwed Nectars des Îles which seemed to bring back special memories for a stranger. Vents Ardents continues the tropical theme but with less florals.

Vents Ardents opens as a spicy, boozy cocktail. It’s creamy and milky. I would call Vents Ardents a “tropical masculine”. The rum is spiced. The spices-vanilla-tonka-tobacco combo in this reminds me of… Continue reading | 6 Comments

More of the Martin Denny Babe: Get the Look of Afro-Desia

September 7, 2008

Here’s another cover of the blonde Sandy Warner, looking as beautiful as always.

But, that is so funny to me. I mean World Market still does the same hokey thing… Continue reading

Martin Denny Babe: Still Looking Good; Exotica Volume III

August 3, 2008

Sandy Warner is one hot chick. She can go from deep brunette to a bleached blonde. Yeah, I think she looks better with dark hair but I’m partial. I just like dark hair. But, to still look good after switching to the other end of the hair color spectrum is pretty amazing. I can sport dark hair and red hair but blonde is a big no no. It is instant white trash for me. Anyways, Exotica III is a pretty… Continue reading

The Martin Denny Babes' Collection: Exotica II

July 16, 2008

The strings of babes associated with Mr. Martin Denny won’t stop! Who are these lovely ladies? I’ve wanted to know for years. Anyways, now to capture the very modern look of the 1957 album Exotica II. By the way, what dumb artist decided to frame this picture like this. Why chop off her chin and leave all that extra space? Oh and I love her hair. Every time I see this album I get closer to chopping mine off. First, even out your skintone using a matte foundation such as Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse
