Jennifer Lopez Deseo for men cologneJennifer Lopez will follow up on her most recent fragrance releases, Deseo and Deseo Forever, with her first masculine fragrance, Deseo for Men. According to Lopez...

Kimora Lee Simmons Baby Phat FabulosityFabulosity is the latest fragrance from Kimora Lee Simmons' Baby Phat line. A representative from Coty described her first scent, Goddess, as "kitschy and over the top"; perhaps they were referring to the packaging and advertising, as I found it pretty standard fare: a fresh, clean-ish floral, fairly sheer yet still too sweet for my taste, and not particularly memorable (in fact, I believe I commented here recently that I had never tried it on skin, but I was wrong — there is a whole paragraph on it in my testing notes).

I don't know if anyone else on earth will find this as fascinating as I did, but here is a YouTube video of Susan Lucci (Erica Kane!) of All My Children selling her signature fragrance, Invitation, on HSN. Note that very little effort is made to describe the fragrance itself; instead, they keep repeating the key words "high end" and "award winning". Apparently that is all that is necessary, because they sell tons of bottles (assuming the little ticker at the bottom is accurate) before they even mention the fragrance notes...
