Eva Longoria’s Sexy Scent
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Health & Beauty,
Actress Eva Longoria Parker thinks that her perfume is the perfect way to attract a man.
The Desperate Housewives star launched her debut fragrance, Eva by Eva Longoria, in April, and believes men all over the world will love the scent and want their partners to wear it all the time.
“I want him to devour the woman that’s smelling my fragrance. If he smells my fragrance he should jump on that woman.”
One man who is definitely impressed with the fragrance is Eva’s husband, basketball player Tony Parker: “He loves it. He also is not a very big fan of overpowering scents and so he loves it because this one is really light and subtle.”
Eva says she was keen to create the perfume - which blends citrus notes, jasmine, violet and amber - because she hadn’t worn fragrances for years as she was allergic to them. “I was always envious of my friends who could always wear all this perfume.so that’s when I decided to create Eva,” she said.

Gwen Stefani Struggled With Perfumes
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, Health & Beauty,
Singer-turned-fashion designer Gwen Stefani admits she found it hard to create five perfumes at once.
The No Doubt front woman, who already has own successful fashion line, L.A.M.B., is to release the Harajuku Lovers Wicked Style Collection in November but says it was tough coming up with smells that would fit the different personalities.
“I think perfume, in general, is really quite challenging. It’s so abstract. And you like something right away, but then you wear it and you’re like, ‘Oh my god, it’s bugging me!’ I think doing five at once is even worse, especially knowing you have the personality of each girl that you’re trying to fit in the perfume and make it as true as possible to the personality of each name of the fragrance. So, yeah, it’s crazy. But it’s super fun. And it’s also the greed in me. I love being able to say, ‘Oh my God, I’ve got five new perfumes!’ And they all kind of work together. They’re all about being sweet and happy . I think they turned out really good this time.”
Gwen recently revealed she is surprised by how successful her fashion line has become, after launching it eight years ago: “I never thought it would turn out this good. I’m really spoiled. These jeans are as good as anything I have.”

Gucci Girl Evan Rachel Wood
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Health & Beauty, News,
True Blood star Evan Rachel Wood has become the face of Gucci’s new perfume.
The 21-year-old actress will front the campaign for the Italian fashion house’s latest female fragrance and Gucci creative director Frida Giannini thinks she is the ideal choice.
“I chose Evan Rachel Wood as she has very strong character. She’s young, but rising and influential figure. I didn’t want to offer this project to someone overexposed or too well known. Instead, I wanted a fresh individual that would coincide with the image of the project.”
Frida says she was inspired to sign Evan after seeing her on the big screen as her confidence oozes through: “Evan Rachel Wood is such a talented and beautiful actress. I have always admired her confidence and her ability to transform herself in front of the camera. Even though she can appear shy at times, when the camera starts rolling, she becomes animated and vivacious. She is incredible, very sexy, and her eyes and face really attract the people of her generation.”
Exact details about Evan’s debut for the brand have yet to be revealed.

Apparently it’s a rite of passage in the music industry to bottle up a scent and slap one’s name on it these days. Fergie is the latest of the celebrities to do so, having teamed up with Avon to produce her fragrance called Outspoken.
“From my music to my wardrobe, my style is all about speaking up and making a statement. Outspoken definitely turns heads, but it also lets your true personality shine through.”
Although the product won’t hit stores until September, the Black Eyed Peas singer has released some teaser promotional images to prompt fans’ anticipation. Can anyone resist an ad like that?

Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, Health & Beauty, Women,
Despite running into some possible marital problems, celebrity perfumer and fashion designer Avril Lavigne turned heads in the Hamptons.
While her more glamorous era undoubtedly beats her “Sk8er Boi” days, I’m not too keen on pairing the gothic prom dress with rainbow Hot Topic pumps. What do you think—successful upgrade or transition failure?
