J. Lo to Launch a Men’s Scent?

She sure does have a passion for perfume. Next stop on the Jennifer Lopez fragrance train? Deseo for Men.

Says J. Lo to WWD: “I wanted to capture the intimate and personal nature of a man who is sexy, yet strong,” Lopez said of Deseo for Men, a counterpart to Deseo for Women, launched last September. “Deseo means desire. Desire is a universal word that expresses passion between two people. I wanted to take this meaning and put it behind the idea of one desiring another. The smell is warming and creates a provocative and sensual texture.

“We are always looking to create something new and exciting, and one thing that I had yet to do was a men’s fragrance,” Lopez continued. “After creating Deseo for Women, I was inspired to create a men’s fragrance that complemented it.”

The scent has top notes of lemon, yuzu, red berries and cedar leaf; a heart of tobacco leaves, guaicwood and orris, and a drydown of sandalwood, cedarwood, patchouli, amber and vanilla.

The collection comprises eaux de toilette in two sizes, 1.7 oz. for $45 and 3.4 oz. for $55; a 3.4-oz. aftershave balm, $40, and a 2.4-oz. deodorant, $16.

Word on the Beauty Boulevard is…

The sexiness that is Josh Hartnett has just signed on to be the face of Giorgio Armani’s newest male fragrance.

Josh Hartnett Emporio Armani

Says WWD: Giorgio Armani is out to prove diamonds aren’t just a girl’s best friend.

The firm’s beauty division on Tuesday signed actor Josh Hartnett as the face of a new scent due out this summer called Emporio Armani Diamonds for Men, a masculine counterpart to last year’s Emporio Armani Diamonds women’s fragrance, which was fronted by Beyoncé Knowles.

The Emporio Armani generation is inspired by film and music,” the designer stated. “I felt that for the men’s Diamonds fragrance it would therefore be appropriate to involve one of today’s most inspiring young actors.”

Diamonds for Men, which is Emporio Armani’s sixth men’s fragrance, is due to be unveiled in June, during the spring 2009 men’s fashion shows in Milan. It is slated to be launched worldwide in August.

According to People Magazine…

Mark Indelicato

Mark Indelicato, the young actor that plays the hilarious character of Justin on the hit show Ugly Betty, revealed his must-have beauty buys in this week’s issue of People.

Though he gets $50 per week for allowance, most young boys would spend their hard earned cash on video games & clothes, which Incelicato does… but he also splurges on - wait for it - Kiehl’s and Clarins, because their products help him avoid breakouts.

Talk about interesting indulgences! Maybe art does imitate life… Justin is pretty serious about his appearance!

Justin Timberlake Is Jumping On The Celebrity Scent-Wagon

Justin Timberlake

Now that he’s dominated the world through music, acting, fashion, and the restaurant business, now Justin Timberlake is adding beauty to his never-ending ‘Things-I-Must-Conquer‘ list. Maybe we have another Diddy on our hands?

According to WWD, Timberlake is set to join Liv Tyler and be the gorgeous face of a Givenchy Parfums fragrance.

“He’s multitalented, he’s been voted one of the sexiest men in the world and he’s a trendsetter, not just in musical terms but in the way he lives and dresses,” Alain Lorenzo, Parfums Givenchy’s president, told WWD Thursday. “He’s very popular everywhere. He’s not just the idol of the Americans or of the Brits, he’s truly a world-recognized artist in his field.”

The scent is slated to be released in early 2009.

To Laugh or to Swoon? I Know Not What To Do.

It’s not often we get to see Matthew McConaughey looking so… suave. Come to think of it, I’m used to seeing him with a headband, a bare sweaty chest, dusty sneakers, running shorts, greasy hair, and a goofy grin. Talk about a complete 180; in his new commercial for Dolce & Gabbana’s The One fragrance, athletic Matthew McConaughey is nowhere to be seen, as he’s been replaced with his suit-and-tie counterpart, who is seen strolling back to his hotel whilst vintage jazz serves as his theme music. While we do get a glimpse of his swoon-worthy smile and omnipresent freshly-waxed chest, I couldn’t help but chuckle a few times. I’m not so sure I take him seriously - I kinda kept expecting him to break out with a joke or two…

Thoughts? Do you buy a completely made over Matthew McConaughey? Or would you rather have the fun-loving beach bum back?

Something For Him: One Sexy Shaving Set

Raise your hand if you hate kissing a guy with a scruffy beard.

Maybe he’s in-between shaves, or maybe it’s just not his thing… If that’s the case, maybe he’s never seen the True Gentleman Madison Shave Set.

True Gentleman Madison Shaving Set

Inspired by New York City’s prestigious Madison Avenue, these shaving sets are actually handmade in England, and are available in two sleek hues: black or ivory. A full set includes a Pure Badger Shaving Brush, a Madison Razor, as well as a Madison Razor and Brush Stand.

Oh, and did I mention it’s free with purchase of an annual regimen of True Gentlemen shaving products (for a limited time, obviously)? A $225 value for $0–who doesn’t love a bargain?

Visit Egentleman.com for more information.

The One²

On the heels of the massive success of The One for Women, Dolce & Gabbana and P&G Prestige Products have teamed up to launch The One for Men.

dg-the-one.jpg

Says co-creator Stefano Gabbana, “I wanted to create a real man’s fragrance… I wanted it to be a classic — not a banal classic, but a classic men’s fragrance that would last for years and be the type of scent that women adore.”

When asked to describe the scent, Gabbana says he wanted a spicy, woody, innately masculine scent: “I like spicy-oriental notes and we’ve never done these types of fragrances, it’s a little warmer than our other men’s scents.”

Notes for The One for Men will include grapefruit, coriander, basil, cardamom, ginger, orange blossom, cedarwood, ambergris, and tobacco.

Look for The One for Men on department store shelves in March of next year. Price points include $55 for 50 ml. and $70 for 100 ml. for the eau de toilette spray. An ancillary line includes aftershave lotion, $45 for 100 ml.; aftershave balm, $35 for 75 ml.; shower gel, $30 for 200 ml., and deodorant stick, $22 for 75 ml.

BONUS: Oft-shirtless actor Matthew McConaughey has been tapped as the model for the scent’s advertising campaign. The commercial and print ads were shot in Paris this past September, with an action premise: For the fragrance’s TV commercial, the blonde actor is depicted on the run from a pack of paparazzi on the streets of Paris dressed in a slim Dolce & Gabbana suit and sunglasses. The print shot features McConaughey in a hotel room at night, hair slicked back, in a white shirt unbuttoned at the collar, with the fragrance in the foreground.
