Estee Lauder Cos. 3rd Qtr. loss…

Author: I smell good

Consumer cutbacks were responsible for cosmetic maker Estee Lauder’s 30 percent fall of fiscal second-quarter profits.  The company said it was hurt by the stronger dollar and weak consumer spending environment.

The company will also cut 2,000 workers as part of restructuring.  The weak spending environment will help consumers who purchase online.  By staying home, shopping for good deals on quality products, people will save money.

Time is right

Author: I smell good

p_9141_s.jpgAccording to statistics, the hottest selling products online are number one, cosmetics, and number three, perfume and fragrances.  Wow, just think, here we sit in our homes, smelling all pretty and such, gas prices down some, but still too high.  Income is down, home interest rates are dropping while our credit card interest rates are climbing.  What better time to get on the computer and order our favorite fragrance, or try new ones.

Vanilla

A spray of vanilla brings back the image of a vanilla in shades of caramel that fleetingly connects with the dark, shiny black of its original pod.

I love Vanilla home perfume!!! I want to wear it as a fragrance, I wish L’Occitane would come back out with it as an Eau de Toilette! I would buy lots :)

Well I tried to help her out.  I took some vanilla, mixed it with water, sprayed it on my lady friend, and woola.  I am now searching for a new lady friend.  However for cooking it is great.  I happen to have a bottle of Haitian vanilla which is better for cooking.  Wow what a difference.  But it doesn’t help me smell any better.  I guess I will keep searching.

The Queen of Sheba

Author: I smell good

From the religious ceremonies involving the burning of incense to the embalming of the dead, perfume was an integral part of the Egyptian life.  Many agree that the Egyptians were the first to incorporate perfume into their culture, during the Queen of Sheba’s rule.

Egyptians were also the first to anoint their bodies with the scents of cinnamon and honey.  So since the Egyptian times, men have referred to their ladies as HONEY (because the smelt, good that is).

Happy New Year

Author: I smell good

ana6c.JPGHow many times have you heard this saying today, or even this week.

A new year year usually brings on extra pounds from all the goodies we ate and drank, and a resolution to get rid of those pounds by summer, so we can fit back into the swimming gear we bought last summer.  Then we get by for a few months, so we can do it all over again. 

It is also time for sales.  I noticed that there are more “KITS” or sets or packaged items for sale as opposed to individual items.

One such set I saw was Cacharel’s  Anais Set.  I am always careful how I pronounce that word, so I don’t feel like I’m left sitting on something. 

This set brings body lotion, shower gel and EDT spray together, saving over 57% off the regular individual price.  The delicate and ultra-feminine fragrance blends sweet rose, voluptous lily, creamy amber and powerful sandalwood.
