Narcissist men revel in their looks and perfumes are an integral part of their grooming. Perfumes have a "feel good" factor about them. Leading fashion houses of the world have created their own brands of exotic men's perfumes which are gifted to men with unfailing regularity by their admiring partners.

Now fragrance counters are a favorite place to go to buy gifts, whether it’s for a man or a woman। Women of all ages love to receive perfumes as gifts which can be enjoyed everyday, all round the year। Perfumes give a women an extra look of elegance and now become a fashion statement.

Vera Wang Rock Princess produced by Vera Wang

Rock Princess (2009), the new launch by Vera Wang is described as a dark Fruity Floral evocative of downtown East Village, except it's not the most original idea but a spinoff of the hit fragrance Vera Wang Princess (2006) which featured fruits, flowers, forbidden woods, musk and dark chocolate. The limited edition Rock Princess also features fruits and flowers on a sweet, woody-vanillic-musk base, but compared to the original Princess smells to my nose woodier and more powdery, more of a woody Floral Oriental scent with fruit notes rather than like a straight Fruity Floral.
It smells like a typical patchouli-based fruity scent: sweet and a little bit dusty due to the wood notes combined with a flowery heart. Rock Princess also has a rich floral heart, giving it a sort of '80s vibe.
The major difference between Princess and Rock Princess seems to be that Rock Princess is a bit perfumier, maybe a bit aldehydic with a creamy cupcake note imbedded somewhere, and lily-like heady florals intensifying towards the end.

L de Lolita Lempicka produced by Lolita Lempicka

Fashion houses are often named after their founding designer, but Josiane Pividal went about it differently.

As the fashion house took off, the couple found it simpler to change their names to Lolita and Joseph-Marie Lempicka. Lolita / Josiane were born in Bordeaux in 1954.

In 1984 she and her husband opened their first boutique in Paris's Marais district, and it became an instant success. She became famous for her exquisitely tailored suits, infusing classical Parisian styles with fresh femininity. The Lempicka Company rapidly expanded into the international marketplace. In the 1990's Lolita created award winning fragrances. She earned the prestigious Best Women's Fragrance by the Fragrance Foundation and the American FIFI award in 1998 for Lolita Lempicka.

It is classified as an oriental perfume, and should be worn in the evenings, or fall through spring but not in the summer. When wearing this fragrance, be prepared to be stopped for compliments as its sillage, or trail, is strong an beautiful.

Some of the less costly perfumes had quite pleasing scents. Everyday prices meant that the ordinary person could afford to buy a perfume gift from ranges by Coty, Yardley, Max Factor and Revlon and not break the bank. Goya also produced scents in a price conscious range.
