KIEHL’S new Portable Essence Oils

Customer Favorites from the Original Kiehl’s Pharmacy Now Available in Roller Ball Packaging for Fragrance On-the-Go.

I used to be a huge fan of KIEHL’s Cucumber oil back in my days in New York City. I wonder if they will add this scent into their new Portable Essence Oils.

Kiehl’s Since 1851, the venerable New York-based purveyor of fine quality skin and hair care preparations, is pleased to announce the re-launch of its classic essence oils – dating back to the early 1920s. These highly concentrated essence oils are packaged in an elegant amber glass combined with the ease of portability in a roller ball vial.

Kiehl’s will initially offer essence oils of Musk 1921, Coriander 1946, Vanilla 1968 and Grapefruit 1976 – followed by six others in the coming months. Each date corresponds to the original essence’s formulation year created by Kiehl’s pharmacists for patrons who cherished an individual, enduring scent. These four classic essence oils are some of the 122 unique fragrant oils blended by hand in the original Kiehl’s Pharmacy.

ck one Relaunches with Inaugural Campaign

From WWD ISSUE 01/09/2009

Calvin Klein plans to bring new attention to its CK One franchise with a new TV campaign to be launched Jan. 20. Not coincidentally, it’s the same day President-elect Barack Obama will be inaugurated.

“The CK One ‘We are one’ campaign is inspired by a social movement of people coming together in the spirit of unity,” said Catherine Walsh, senior vice president of American fragrances for Coty Prestige, noting the campaign’s centerpiece is a song commissioned from British musician Jamie Burke – who appears in the print and TV ads for this campaign, as well as two Calvin Klein Jeans spots. “There is such a natural synergy between the message of the campaign and the essence of our new president’s platform that it seemed the ideal moment to share the TV spot. The campaign – and its original song – give voice to an optimistic new generation, that certainly made its voice heard in the latest election. This is a celebration of the power of coming together as one.”

Rocawear introduces 9IX Rocawear The New Fragrance for Men

The 9IX Rocawear The New Fragrance for Men was launched in September 2008 by Rocawear: Rocawear was established in 1999 off of the meteoric success of Shawn “Jay Z” Carter, as an apparel collection to fit the urban lifestyle, and quickly became the destination brand for street-savvy consumers. Today, the brand is a dominant lifestyle apparel brand for a wide range of customers, and has expanded its appeal beyond the national borders and has become a brand of international significance.

FRAGRANCE: 9IX Rocawear is a fresh woody aromatic scent, with a sexy modern sensuality. Reflecting the essence of the Rocawear brand, this new fragrance delivers a strong, unique personality. Fresh and seductive, 9IX Rocawear captures the bold masculinity of a man with the confidence to achieve anything, while remaining true to himself.

Here is the ad for Sean John I Am King New Fragrance by P. Diddy:

Sean John I Am King New Fragrance by P. Diddy is P. Diddy’s second perfume, after Unforgivable for Men, P. Diddy.

The name builds on P. Diddy”s current Sean John men”s line, which has a classic, royal theme.

“I Am King is a statement about all men,” Diddy tells WWD. “We are all descendants of royalty ” and if we carry ourselves and respect ourselves in that manner and believe in ourselves, then we are all kings.”

“You have to look at all of the images they have out about Blacks,” he explains. “So when you see this image, you need to understand it”s bigger than the fragrance, it”s bigger than me.

“When a young Blacks male or a young Latino male sees this image, they see this elegant sophistication and they see I Am King next to it ” it hits their senses and they believe; that”s what motivates me when I”m taking pictures.”
