Hurry! Kate Moss' hair extensions on Ebay


Is it possible to be totally impressed and totally creeped-out at the exact same time?
Because that's pretty much the way we felt when we say that a German paparazzi type was holding one of Kate Moss' hair extensions hostage on Ebay. Apparently, while Kate was in Berlin last month, promoting her new fragrance Velvet Hour -- she had a wardrobe malfunction that's making this guy at least €805 ($1,269) as we write this post.

The story, as best we can translate, goes something like this: Kate was leaving her Velvet Hour afterparty thing, looking hot and showing off her flowing locks on the red carpet, when -- boink! -- one of her hair extensions popped out. Then, this opportunistic photographer dude immediately realized its value and snatched it up. Easiest couple thousand bucks that guy's probably ever made.

Anyway, you've got a little more than a day left to place your bid. If you're into that creepy, celebrity-stalking thing.

Velvet Hour: The new Kate Moss fragrance?


In between shooting an ad campaign for Stella McCartney with rock chick Frankie Ryder and losing her weave on the red carpet last week, Kate Moss managed to stealthily launch another fragrance.

It's apparently named Velvet Hour, but no other details have been made available about the new scent -- except for an image that power-house fashion photography duo Mert & Marcus lensed for the fragrances advertising campaign.

After staring at this photograph for a while, we began to realize that we'd seen this very same moody and predominately navy blue background once before -- the Cool Water ads.

"How could we not have seen it the first time around?" we thought aloud. Hopefully, Kate's new concoction will smell at least half as good as Cool Water's high school-friendly perfume. Really, was that mist not the most popular fragrance next to Abercrombie & Fitch's musky cologne in your teenage years?

Emma Watson lands major Chanel deal


Not only is Emma Watson the cleverest witch of her age in the Harry Potter movies, but she's also apparently an awfully clever young actress. According to the Daily Mail, the 18-year-old has landed a £3 million deal with Chanel.

Emma, who recently signed up with the modeling agency Storm will take over for Keira Knightly as the new face of Chanel's Coco Mademoiselle fragrance. Chanel has been dressing the young starlet for premieres and parties over the last few months and is now apparently convinced that the actress best known for her role as Hermione Granger wears the brand elegantly enough to represent it.

Agyness Deyn cuts it all off for Jean Paul Gaultier




You can't keep a good woman down for long.

Just after Burberry gave her the boot, Agyness Deyn has gracefully landed in Jean Paul Gaultier's commercial for his recently launched perfume, Ma Dame.

In the commercial, the Manchester native dons a long platinum blonde wig, which she hacks all off towards the end to expose her cooler-than-thou peroxide pixie cut. But not before she begins ripping off her sleeves, shirts, and pant legs. The thirty-four second fragrance spot was shot in black and white and has a 80s retro feel to it -- probably paying homage to Gaultier's days of courting Madonna with cone bras.

Watch and enjoy.



Give your home a Zensual makeover


Whether you've invited just a couple of pals or a whole bunch of people over, whenever you have guests in your home, you want it to make a good impression. That means putting away your dishes and maybe doing a little vacuuming ... but what about the first thing people notice when they come in the door? What about the scent?

A pleasant aroma can immediately set the tone of the evening, so you want to make sure you get it right. We're really digging Zensual. They offer a variety of intoxicating scents in both candle and diffuser form -- candles for when you want that romantic glow, and diffusers for when it's just too hot to deal with a flame.

Eva Mendes CK fragrance ads too hot for TV


It was just a couple weeks ago that recently-rehabbed actress Eva Mendes appeared in Vogue Germany -- for the most part without her clothes. And now, word 'round the Internet is that the star's latest ad campaign is similarly scandalous.

The TV spots are for a new Calvin Klein fragrance called Secret Obsession, and apparently clearly show Eva "having illicit thoughts." So illicit, in fact, that they're making network TV sensors very uncomfortable -- which means the ads will likely never see the light of day.

Vera Wang honored at FiFi Awards


The 36th Annual FiFi Awards were held this week, and Vera Wang was honored with a Hall of Fame award. Winning a FiFi is like winning an Oscar of fragrance. Vera was especially excited because she spent a lot of time in France as a young girl, with perfumes playing a big part in her life.

Naomi Watts gets 'Angelic' for Thierry Mugler


Clearly it's not enough for Naomi Watts to be just an Oscar-nominated actress with a beautiful baby and a super-famous best friend. No, the King Kong and Funny Games star has designs on the modeling industry, too -- she has just been signed up as the first celebrity face of Thierry Mugler's Iconic Angel perfume.


Any eagle-eyed dress-watchers at the Metropolitan Museum's Costume Institute Gala Benefit in New York last week will have spotted the suitably angelic appearance of Watts' dress... of course, it was a Mugler design. Crafty.

Paris Hilton becomes an SJP wannabe, steals Posh's thunder


Paris Hilton certainly made an impact in London when she stopped by Selfridges to promote her new fragrance, Can Can. She not only channeled Sarah Jessica Parker by wearing an unusual hat (which, though we're in the minority, we kind of love -- just maybe not on Paris), she also stole the spotlight from Victoria Beckham who had decided to actually take the trouble to promote her denim line down the street at Harrods.

Why aren't you wearing this? Marc Jacobs 'Daisy' Solid Perfume Ring


Do you ever worry, after dancing up a sweat with that hottie at the club, about how you smell? Wouldn't it be great to have a little something on your person that could spruce up your scent? Of course, there's no WAY you want to carry a whole bottle (even travel-sized) around in your purse all the time -- what if it spills?

Tim McGraw designs men's fragrance


Let's be clear: the very idea of celebrity "designed" fragrances is weird. Sure, we'll dress like our favorite actor, musician, or celebutant, but who wants to smell like Britney Spears? In any case, men who enjoy emitting an Eau de Michael Jordan, Antonio Banderas, or Derek Jeter now have a new, and equally as unappealing option: Tim McGraw.
