This is sooooooo sweet. Oprah meets the celebrity she was crushin’ on as a teenager.

Talk about dream date ! WOOHOO SEXAY !

Versace Crystal Noir smells like the UK. I don’t know exactly what I associate the smell of the UK with, but I know for sure that place has a particular smell. Not good, not bad. Just particular. I for one love it. As I previously said, it tells me that I’m not in Germany, France, Italy, I’m in the UK.

I got my first Versace Crystal Noir in Scotland, as a gift, and I couldn’t get the scent off my mind ever since.

It turns you into a vamp, even if just in thought. And it WILL NOT let you go. And you cannot resist it. It’s like ivy, it just wraps itself around you, gets you floating on its aroma (but in a good way) and never wanting to leave the cocoon it quickly built around you, without you even noticing. And the aroma changes quickly from powerful to loving, wrapping, warm, so… So warm. How could you leave it? You’re hooked.

As for the Clarins Eau Dynamisante… It smells like Christmas morning in front of the tree… It smells like candy, like wonderful spices…

And the White musk…Mmmmm… That smells like freshly starched sheets, somewhere in a hotel in Italy. Some place where the air is crispy and you just want to go back under the luscious cover to feel and smell the sheets again, with all your skin, in the crispy morning air. It also smells like a hotel on the beach, with the soft breeze coming through the window and caressing your skin as you lie on the bed.

And Joop, my lovely Joop… As I said it smells like the most powerful man in the world. Someone you cannot and will not deny. Not everyone can wear it though. If you don’t have what it takes, it will just smell like an inappropriate perfume, or if you wear it off season.
It smells like a spectacular person. Someone who just takes your breath away. Someone who knows exactly what he/she wants and knows how to get it. Someone like Michael Madsen. Yeah. Definitely. Someone like him… In Vengeance Unlimited. Definitely.

Gosh I love scents… And for the cold season the ones mentioned above will be all. Except for the White musk, but I couldn’t forget about it.

And it all started with a sample of the new Nina Ricci perfume, Ricci Ricci. I was just thinking that it smells like “playful in Paris”. And that before seeing the commercial with the cat in Paris. LOL Not bad, but I’m just not a Paris kind of girl. And even if Versace is Italian, it still smells like the UK.

As for one last thing, as we’re on perfumes… I miss two perfumes very much…

I got one of them when I was 12 and couldn’t find it again, still have the bottle with a bit of the perfume in it too… It’s called Identity. Apparently nobody ever heard of it so it must be magic. It really smelled like Identity.

The second one is called Sweet Courreges. Naicu gave a small bottle to me ages ago, and I’ve been loving it ever since. It can only be ordered online, and I didn’t get to do it. Couldn’t find it in any stores. That one smells like some sort of  fondant. It just wraps you up in fondant and makes you feel like a pair of luscious lips covered in a thick pink (sugar tasting like) lipgloss. LOL That does sound wrong, doesn’t it?

FANTASTIC ! I foresee a long, long, long, long listen !

Great thanks, yet again, to the president of  Elvis Presley Romania (the official fan club)  for letting me know!

Later edit: The radio will soon have subscriptions. However the connection and music selection are excellent.

It’s like they captured the hotness (and other elements too) of a spectacular relationship. The two performers, Iana Salenko and Marian Walter (someone said they’re married too), have managed to show what I sometimes cannot express in words. It left me applauding and speechless. Nothing but the best words to the two dancers and the choreographer. Stunning !  Thank you ! (Also youtube had copyright issues with the song, Lhasa de Sela El desierto (click on it to listen).

And the reason I saw them live is:

I’ve recently went to a ballet show. I had to go because it was a gift to someone dear to me, and I figured I’d spend two expensive hours sleeping. However, I didn’t. It was absolutely lovely. First class male and female performers from prestigious institutions around the world made me stand up and applaud. I totally recommend this show, if you have an opportunity to watch it. And to think I never believed I could like ballet. It’s called “International Ballet Gala”. I’d give a site for it, but they’re always changing the stars and this is all I found. And it’s not with the stars who’ve been here.

Anyway, great job, you guys !

We like protection from our men. We want to feel comfortable and safe when we’re close to them.

We like men to be able to be smooth sometimes and furious other times. Someone who’s plain smooth or plain furious is never a challenge.

We like men to look good. Now looking good doesn’t mean being a particular brand or having all yer muscles worked out at the gym. It simply means taking care of yourself, dressing like you’re going on an important thing and having a good attitude. If you know black suits you, then, by all means, wear it more often. Don’t forget to shave, or groom your beard. And when you’re done with the whole thing, walk like you’ve earned it.

We like men to be classy. And quiet. If you ain’t got much to say, or don’t speak the language well, just don’t say a thing. It’s better to look mysterious or insane than to speak out and let everyone know you’re an idiot. LOL

We like to be impressed. So if you got something you can impress someone with (not things from the circus though, lol), again, by all means, go right ahead.

We like to be one with you. So once you’ve been granted access to the personal space, don’t be afraid to get there more often. However by that we don’t mean wanting to “you know what” all the time. LOL But holding hands, cuddling and plain hugging are always good.

And to support what I’m saying, check dis out, lol.

Don’t know why, but it seems that, lately, the dudes from Yahoo speak my language.

Today I’m remembering some Benton Fraser moments.

I used to have the next two tracks on my mp3 player and know them by heart. They always seemed to mix together in a truly beautiful way.

The first one is Fraser’s Inuit Soliloqui (which was a tad shorter on my mp3, like til he ends his speech).

The second is Elvis Presley’s Amazing Grace:

As we’re on the Benton Fraser subject… I also remembered his love connection with Victoria. The beautiful Melina Kanakaredes (Victoria) is the only woman Benton loved in a romantic way.

Here’s a nice video on the Victoria’s secret episode, an episode in which he meets her again after ages:

And to end this remembrance episode, here’s what happened at the end of Victoria’s secret (with dialogue). And I cried for it.
