Couture Eyeliner

I had no idea there was makeup only available at Saks, but I'm not surprised. This Dolce & Gabbana Charm Eye Liner Pencil is a great find in their beauty & fragrance department. D&G's makeup has a great reputation, especially products for the eyes. I don't typically wear liner, but this one in Black looks absolutely smoldering. If you rim your eyes and then smudge it with a cotton swab, they'll look even more sexy! Love the charms at the end, too, although that better not be the reason for the high price of $33 (see title link). Great gift (for yourself, obviously).

Meow!

Katy Perry just released a second fragrance called Meow! With the catchphrase "Be the Cat's Meow!" the Eau de Parfum is so feminine and is available at Nordstrom for $45-$60 (see title link). I love their Beauty section, and the stuff they have for women is phenomenal. Lots of vanilla and amber, with that true Katy Perry energy.

Lancome's Midnight Treasure

Lancome Paris' Tresor Midnight Rose Eau de Parfum Spray (see title link) is definitely on my wishlist this season. I just wore it to a sendoff party but felt so confident and great wearing it! I've never used a Lancome fragrance before, but the quality definitely lives up to its reputation. And who wouldn't want something Emma Watson stands for? She's so charming and desirable to all. The fragrance includes notes of raspberry, rose, and musk. The motto: "Catch my heart if you can!"

Mariah Carey's Fragrances?

Mariah Carey has three fragrances as part of her Lollipop Bling collection, but the colors of "Ribbon" touch me the most. The Eau de Parfum spray costs $35 (see title link), and has a floral, fruity scent that smells like Blue Raspberry. Also includes honeydew, blue lotus, dew, musks, white woods, and sugar crystals. Available at all drugstores!

Luxe Perfume

Want to feel like a celebrity but don't have the same cash inflow to make it happen? Hate knockoffs and actually want to own something made by a high-fashion designer? Check out your fragrance section at a local Sephora. I love the fragrance created by Fendi. Their women's fragrance, called Fan di Fendi Eau de Parfum costs anywhere from $56-$92 depending on size (see title link) and smells like the ultimate fantasy. It's got hints of leather, warm jasmine, and general insistence, elegance, and allure. I am addicted already, and it's completely irresistible. Almost haunting, really.
Made for an electric night out, with notes of rose, tangerine, pink peppercorn, and patchouli.

Forbidden Euphoria by Calvin Klein

Love Forbidden Euphoria by Calvin Klein. Priced moderately high at $45 for 1 oz., the new fragrance is fresh with a cool modern twist that's so alluring. The exotic fruits, florals, and musks really complete the package (see title link).

Purr!

Katy Perry's Purr Eau de Parfum is actually quite nice-smelling. Not crazy about the packaging OR advertising (the new fragrance for women should not have Katy dressed with a tail) but the whole "Earn My Affection" thing is cute yet sexy. From $45-$65, available at Nordstrom (see title link).

Purr (not like the cat)

I've blogged about this one in the past for sure. But Purr by Katy Perry is worth mentioning several times. I'll admit I love her music mostly because of the melodies and instruments, rather than her relatively ordinary voice. But Perry makes no mistake when it comes to beginning her beauty empire. The Eau de Parfum is the latest in fragrances for women, and available at Nordstrom stores. With the "Earn My Affection" feline motto, the fragrance contains peach nectar, forbidden apple, jasmine, rose, and vanilla orchid, along with the standards of sandalwood and musk. Surprisingly sophisticated, too. Not crazy about the bottle look, but hey, I applaud her boldness. Available for $45-$65, depending on the size (see title link).

Daisy fresh

Daisy Marc Jacobs is one of my all time faves. A great fragrance for women, with some innocence, playfulness, elegance, and enchantment. Contains notes of strawberry, violet leaves, ruby red grapefruit, gardenia, violet petals, jasmine petals, musk, vanilla, and white woods. Costs $60-$75 at Sephora (see title link).

There's a new fragrance in town

I love this new Purr by Katy Perry fragrance! I actually wore it at a classy event and it felt great. It's the new fragrance for women and available at Nordstrom (see title link). The Eau de Parfum contains peach nectar, apple, jasmine blossom, rose, and vanilla orchid. The sandalwood and musk are a given, giving it that playful vibe. $45-$65. ..."Earn My Affection."

Ralph Lauren

Want to smell good and actually have it last? You'll have to splurge, but Ralph Lauren Romance is an AMAZING women's fragrance. The Sensuous Body Powder, costing $59.50 (see title link) for 3.5 oz, works incredibly to refresh your skin, while sprinkling it with wonderful smells.
