Thierry Mugler Womanity...

Womanity is the new fragrance from Thierry Mugler.  Angel and Alien have set the bar in Thierry Mugler’s fragrance portfolio, would Womanity attain the same level of success?

“Womanity is meant to evoke a metaphysical bond among womenkind… the smell is as audacious as its name a commingling of figs and caviar, a sweet-salty combination as treacly as a chocolate-covered pretzel.” – nytimes.com

Thierry Mugler’s fragrances are known to be the love-hate kind. It’s contemporary alright but the manner each fragrance is concocted is very different from the others. Thierry Mugler pioneers the beginning of a trend. Others tend to mimic his penchant for the outrageous. Imagine the fusion of caviar and fig would turn out to be a woman’s fragrance!

Thierry Mugler Womanity will be introduced in July in 30ml, 50ml and 80ml eau de parfum.

Bond No. 9 Andy Warhol Montauk...

Visual arts icon Andy Warhol has a different take on Montauk – a little town located at the end of Long Island. Back in the 70s and 80s, he turned this quiet town into a Studio 54 by the sea. So  just imagine the VIPs and the socialites flocking to Montauk – the celebrities hobnobbing at night with the triteness of this place on the foreground.

Bond No 9 Andy Warhol Montauk is the fifth fragrance in Bond No 9’s Andy Warhol collection. It represents the contrasting beauty of life in the city and that of a little town.

The fragrance captures the improbable descent of disco-mania on an unassuming fishing-village and nearby woodlands.  Imagine a windswept Montauk sunset hinting at the steamy, sexy nighttime to come.  In this twilight zone, the fresh and tangy initial flavors of blueberry and wild bergamot give way, first to sultry, sexy hyacinth, lily of the valley, and honeysuckle, and then to rich, clean forest-by-the-sea aromas—silver maple, red oak, driftwood, and amber.  What we have here is a cunning interplay of rustic and urban. – bondno9.com

The bottle’s design features Andy Warhol’s sunset collection which is part of a 632 series depicting the sunset in different shades. Bond No 9 Andy Warhol Montauk comes in two eclectic sunset designs – one comes in chrome yellow with a blue sun disc embellished with pink and blue as backdraft and the other presents a blue sun where deeper shades of red and blue decorate the background.

Bond No 9 Andy Warhol Montauk is expected to be introduced this summer and will be available in 50ml and 100ml.
