FATHER'S DAY GIFTS

Father's Day is coming up and quiet as it's kept I'm totally clueless. First I think, maybe the neat little sets that are in the stores now. Why not? They are smart---those department stores, they know I need help! Maybe I'll go look at some some men's wear, maybe I'll go look in Home Depot or Lowe's, maybe cash, a gas card, as you can see I don't even have half a clue. I'll just keep on shopping until I find that thing that I know is it!



Men's Eau de Toilette

"Today, I believe men think differently about style. They appreciate luxury and simplicity, and want to be comfortable. They strive to be powerful and sexy, which is the philosophy I used to create my first fragrance. Michael is a luxurious scent that will appeal to men, and the women in their lives," explains Michael Kors.The key note, classic patchouli, is reinvented with mysterious touches of suede, smoke, and spices. The oriental fragrance blends:• A fresh, aromatic top note of zesty bergamot and spicy undertones of warm cinnamon, exotic cardamom, and star anise. • A modern middle note built around rich pipe tobacco. This masculine scent is further enriched with notes of supple suede.• The soul of the fragrance, patchouli, lingers in the bottom note. Complemented by dried fruits, such as dark plump plums.

Clive Christian

I've had the priveledge of smelling this perfume and I must say it definitely does live up to the hype. Now owning a bottle is going to prove just a tad bit more complicated. I will say that it's on my goals list for 2008!

In 1999 Clive Christian acquired the Crown Perfumery, a celebrated British perfume house established in 1872. The house acquired its name after being granted the use of the royal crown by Queen Victoria as a mark of quality and excellence. Now, inspired by history and tradition, Clive Christian creates a new level of luxury perfumes, with exotic, natural ingredients that allure both men and women. The result for women:

No. 1 Pure Perfume for Women
