Fragrance designers are genius, really. They truly know how to appeal to potential buyers, by selling the image. What better image to sell to men than playboy-millionaire-stylish-badass-working-man? I received the Paco Rabanne 1 Million fragrance for review and I think I was overwhelmed by the musk of the scent. It’s a great packaging I must say. Incredibly elaborate and definitely embodies the James Bond archetype. Marvellous. Boys – would you wear it?

 

Check the commercial below, I got a couple giggles out of it. Want more? Read the press release.

It’s a montage of LENKA’s Spring Euro Tour – I’ve been addicted to watching this type of video lately. It’s fun in motion – could use some more of it (and it might just be coming).

 

Check out the past Q&A that I did with the artist here.

Is is a nerd. I scrapped the last ridiculous vlog that I tried out because I was wearing a blue hair extension and a nose ring and I didn’t want people to bask in the ridiculousity. So here’s another go. Hey, everyone starts somewhere – thanks for even bothering to hit play, it impresses me how much you guys care! PS: I love all yall! PPS: I’m using vimeo now cause it’s hot, the platform matches my colour scheme purrfectly. I will improve, I promise!
