Forever, “an opulent floral,” is meant to evoke a feling of “classic Hollywood allure.”  The bottle does look as if it came form the dressing table of some iconic beauty like Elizabeth Taylor or Lana Turner.

Mariah Carey is pretty busy these days. Her movie Precious is coming out soon, she’s got a scheduled appearance planned for VH1’s series Storytellers  (love that series!), and her newest album, Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel, drops at the end of September.
September also brings the launch date of Forever, her newest fragrance.

“I am in a wonderful place right now, surrounded by all the things I love, and Forever captures this moment in time,” said the entertainer, whose first scent, M by Mariah Carey, launched in September 2007.
Forever is described as a “modern opulent floral.”  It has an opening note of …read more

I received a sample of Mariah Carey’s new perfume – M by Mariah Carey GOLD.  I recently reviewed her first fragrance and really, it wasn’t bad.  It definitely fits her style.  The newest incarnation, GOLD, is actually better in my opinion.  It’s a blend of Tiare Flower and marshmallow, with an amber and light incense base.  It’s more tenacious than I expected, and not a gourmand despite the marshmallow note.  The packaging is really the highlight of this scent, though – the purple butterfly has been recast in gold.  It’ll retail at Macy’s for $75.00/1.7 oz, but with an “actual …read more

Mariah Carey always knows how to draw a crowd!! Hundreds of fans crowded on the sidewalk outside the Macy’s Herald Square Broadway entrance to catch a glimpse of the superstar as she made her grand entrance for the launch of her debut fragrance, M by Mariah Carey. The M by Mariah Carey fragrance launch had one of the largest fan turnouts at Macy’s to date!

In true Mariah fashion, she made her grand entrance in a Bentley Phantom convertible, flanked by two black SUVs decorated with M by Mariah Carey flags. Mariah stepped out onto a purple “M” carpet …read more

I was able to get my hands on a sample of the not-yet-released fragrance, “M” by Mariah Carey.  It’s her debut fragrance,  and if you want to watch the Macy’s ad for it, you can find that here.
Sometimes (you know when I’m talking about) you really WANT to smell like a rosebud dipped in marshmallow fluff.  That’s how I would describe Mariah Carey’s new perfume.  It really is something different, like a “Gourmand-Floral.  It is not dissimilar to another celeb perfume, Britney Spears Midnight Fantasy.  But if you love Mariah, and I can see how you might, because her musical …read more

In true rap mogul style, Sean Combs (Puffy, Puff Daddy, P-Diddy to the rest of you) generated some hype for his new women’s fragrance, Unforgivable Woman, by basically calling out Mariah Carey, J.Lo, and other celeb fragrances.  Mariah Carey and Diddy couldn’t really be more different, and he forgets (or doesn’t know) one key thing about women:  we LOVE variety.  So owning his fragrance doesn’t necessarily mean we wouldn’t like any others.  More about Mariah’s fragrance later…
Honestly, the bottle looks like it could contain aftershave or something.  And the scent, while sexy, is described somewhat unpleasantly: Unforgivable Woman …read more
