Tommy Hilfiger Woman Candied Charms

Tommy Hilfiger is one of my favorite brands, due to its cozy casual style, ready-to-wear clothing, and simple, yet nice designs. The same attitude I have with (some of) their perfumes – at the first smell they seem easy, fresh, and simple, but if sprayed on the body then you realize they are powerful, strong and stay long on the skin.

Hilfiger Woman Candied Charms blends sweet and delicious notes that are the perfect signature of a romantic and gentle woman. The charm and femininity of this perfume will convince you that it can be an ideal companion in any situation.

Hilfiger Woman Candied Charms follows the original perfume launched in 2010 coming with the slogan ‘a simple/elegant American style’. The new version seems to be more delicious and irresistible due to a more sweetie/fruity composition. It opens with refreshing notes of mandarin and pear, yet quickly turns into a spice/woody aroma made of jasmine, fig, Tonka bean, sweet vanilla and honey notes.

Hilfiger Woman Candied Charms is available as 30 and 50ml Eau de Parfum.

Kiehl’s to introduce its first nail polish this summer

 

American cosmetics brand Kiehl’s will unveil its first ever nail polish this summer, which will benefit in amfAR’s fight against AIDS.

For the upcoming summer season, Kiehl’s will introduce its first nail polish in a glossy black colour, inspired by the brand’s love for motorcycles and the company’s annual LifeRide charity event.

We’ve had motorcycles [in our stores] for 40-plus years, and we’ve always had that biker-esque image, so we thought black would be great.

Chris Salgardo, president Kiehl’s.

The formaldehyde-free polish will start selling in late July, coinciding with the company’s annual LifeRide motorcycle trip which raises awareness of HIV and funds for amfAR.

The annual convoy of about 20 bikers was initiated by Salgardo back in 2010, with this year’s LifeRide becoming the longest yet – beginning in Milwaukee and ending as Kiehl’s original shop in Manhattan.

The upcoming nail polish will be sold at all Kiehl’s locations, priced around $15 to $18.
