We are constantly combing the market for the best new fragrances and diligently taking in the notes of each, sometimes to the point of a headache. Of everything we’ve smelled in the past month, these five new fragrances are our absolute favorites. Click through for a rundown, including what message you’ll send when wearing each one.

QUEL SCANDALE!: Murder, She Wore

Edited by

“I would rather weep in a Rolls-Royce than be happy on a bicycle.” You can accuse Patrizia Reggiani of many things — murder being chief among them — but at least she’s consistent. After serving half of a 26 year sentence at Milan’s San Vittore prison for arranging the murder of her husband, Gucci heir Maurizio Gucci in 1995, Reggiani recently refused parole because, in her own brilliant and completely serious words, “it would mean getting a job and I have never worked a day in my life.” Fall back, Imelda Marcos, I think I may have found a new idol.

Let’s Heel It for the Boys

Edited by

High heels: they’re not just for women, drag queens and the oft-misunderstood transvestite anymore. The New York Times ”Style” section, the only news source of any import, chronicles a trend sweeping the nation — or at least a trend lightly dusting Los Angeles: the gentleman stiletto.

#CzechItOut: 12 Spring Spa Swimsuits

Edited by

You might have seen my packing Czech list for this spa journey I’m on through the Czech Republic. I neglected to include that I brought just one swimsuit with me – a neon striped bottom and reversible bandeau top. Such an efficient packer, thought I. What I didn’t realize was how few massages I’d be getting, and how many bath houses I’d be swimming in. The Czech spa triangle is famous for is natural mineral water springs – for drinking and bathing – that hold cures for many illnesses and make your skin look sensational. Thus far I’ve swum in the mineral caves of the Castle Bath Spa in Karlovy Vary, the public family mineral pool at the Aquaforum in Frantiskovy Lazne (where I also got a hot stone massage from the hot son of the hot DILF spa owner – more on that later), and the royal roman bath house at the Maria Spa in Marianske Lazne (from which I’m currently writing). With that – I wish I could have brought these 12 Spring 2012 swimsuits with me. Czech It Out.
