Tous For Spring

Posted by Dior Co on Wednesday, January 18, 2012, In : Reviews 
In tropical country like ours, the cool breeze of the holidays is definitely a breather. But I can never contest the happiness I feel when the temperature starts to rise up again. This only means one thing: sunny days are back! So what better way to celebrate the beginning of spring than to actually wear it? 
 


Inspired by the spring and the delight and vivacious spirit it brings, Tous launches three fragrances that radiate purity, serenity and innocent charm. 

 

Upon smelling these three scents,...

And finally... Benefit opened its doors last December 15 in Greenbelt 5! After the sneak peak we had weeks before the opening, I didn't expect myself to still be this excited. I've already said so much about Benefit in my last post, so I'll just have my pictures do the talking:

How difficult can Christmas shopping be? Well, if you're like me who hates traffic and crowded malls, super! Good thing some stores offer Christmas gift sets that can make Christmas shopping a little bit easier! One of the great deals I scored this season was from Estee Lauder. Don't you just love their annual holiday sets? Super worth the buck!

One-stop Fragrance Shop

Posted by Dior Co on Monday, December 5, 2011, In : News 
I remember those times back in my teen years when I make it a point to always arrive at the airport earlier so I can shop at their Duty Free shops. It was sad that it's the only place where you can buy your favorite imported fragrance back then, aside from our local department stores that sell only a small selection and at a pretty steep price. Now there's no need to look far! Fresh Fragrance Bar, an authorized reseller of both luxury and retail fragrance brands, just opened their doors servi...

Halloween Fever

Posted by Dior Co on Thursday, November 3, 2011, In : Reviews 
Who doesn’t love Halloween? Well, uhm, I don’t. Not that I’m kill-joy or anything, but I just don’t find Halloween a holiday worthy of celebration. I find the quest for the best outrageous costume too time-consuming and exhausting, not to mention having fake scars and blood all over. And for someone who’s last scary movie was “What Lies Beneath,” skipping Halloween altogether was next to logical.

Every eve of November 1, I find myself lavishly spending my night at home with a h...

Allure's 2011 Beauty Awards

Posted by Dior Co on Tuesday, September 13, 2011, In : Announcements 
Aside from the Oscar's, the one thing I patiently wait for annually is Allure's Beauty Awards. Almost all fashion magazines have this kind of awarding yearly but I find Allure to be most unbiased and helpful. Most of the products I have in both my professional and personal kit were discovered through my monthly subscription to the magazine.



This year, the 2011 Best of Beauty Awards gives us 236 carefully picked beauty products to drool over. Find out for yourself the greatest eye creams, lip...

How many ways can one wear swarovski? On our ears, wrists and necks? Even embellished on our fancy dresses and gowns? Here's another way -- spray it on. Yes, the European brand, which revolutionized the crystal industry, has finally unveiled its much anticipated debut fragrance Aura by Swarovski last May 25 at The Art of Scent boutique in Resorts World Manila.

Spell-bound Once Again: Fake Sleeping

Posted by Dior Co on Thursday, June 9, 2011, In : Reviews 
As promised in my previous blog post, here's a review of Majolica Majorca's Summer 2011 collection "Fake Sleeping". Like any other collection they released, there's a story behind it:

"After a hundred years of peaceful slumber and dreaming, a Princess finally awakens to the gentle kiss of a Prince. Her big and round eyes fluttered open revealing long, rich lashes. Her eyes, which were full of sparkles were like nothing anybody has ever seen.

They were truly, a breathtaking and enchanting sigh...

Eat, Pray, Love, Spritz

Posted by Dior Co on Wednesday, August 11, 2010,

Eat, Pray, Love hits theaters in August, but the hype surrounding the epically popular chick-lit book’s cinematic debut has been going strong for months. The on-screen version of Elizabeth Gilbert’s best-selling tome stars Julia Roberts as Gilbert portraying the author’s tale of self-discovery. The beauty connection may not be apparent at first, but oh, it’s there. Gilbert’s sensory detail leaves much room for conjuring all kinds of tactile, aromatic, and palatable images—somethin...

Signature Scent

signaturescent_main.jpgIn Allure's August issue, Eva Mendes confesses that she's been wearing the same fragrance sinceseventh grade, "I wanted to smell like a woman then, so I bought Estée Lauder Knowing." I haven't been going steady with our fragrance for that long, but I can certainly relate to Mendes's love and loyalty.

I got my first whiff of Blue by Ralph Lauren from a magazine scent strip. I think I gave my wrist a paper cut trying to get that smell of soft florals abreast with watery freshness onto my skin i...

Opium, Highly Addictive In A Whole New Way

Posted by Dior Co on Monday, November 9, 2009, In : Reviews 
Thirty-two years ago, Yves Saint Laurent rocked the perfume world with the introduction of Opium. It was the exotic sexpot’s answer to Chanel No. 5’s timeless elegance, with suggestive naked advertising to boot. Starting next year, the mandarin, bergamot, jasmine, and sweet myrrh eau will be sporting a “modern” makeover courtesy of Stefano Pilati and Fabien Baron. The duo has designed both a new bottle and an advertising campaign for the fragrance starring Karen Elson. Junkies will be...

A leading scholar in the field of olfactory science (and the subject of Chandler Burr’s tomeThe Emperor of Scent), Turin brings his renowned expertise to the t...
