In case you missed it, the story behind Mariah Carey’s new Lollipop Bling trio is that Carey’s husband, Nick Cannon, proposed with a ring hidden in a Ring Pop package. So the three new candy-inspired fragrances — Honey, Ribbon and Mine Again — were made in partnership with Topps, the makers of Ring Pops, and when they appear in mass market stores next year (right now they’re at Macy’s and the like) they’ll be marketed alongside actual Ring Pops.
Honey was my favorite of the three, but that isn’t exactly saying much. It’s supposed to be the “bright and sunny” entry, but it isn’t the light, sparkling and fun summer scent it could have been…

Soon enough, notes of freshness and wetness began to infiltrate men’s fragrance — most often with additional “fresh” or “watery” notes of moist, dryly sweet fruits like melon, cucumber and grapefruit — and a breezy new sector was born. With a clean, light smell that was sure to offend no one, these fragrances were like Casual Friday in a bottle.

It’s great to be able to provide your pooch with the trappings of luxury, but what happens when you leave home for that 12-day cruise from Barcelona to Venice? Well, if you happen to live in the San Francisco Bay Area, you can lodge your canine companion at the most expensive boarding kennel in the US.
Owners who choose to board their dogs at the Pooch Hotel in Sunnyvale, Calif., have four different options that run from $50/night to $100/night. Both the Presidential (9’ by 9’ for $75/night) and Palace Suites (12’ by 10’ and 20’ by 15’ for $100/night) are equipped with flat panel televisions, webcams and luxury bedding. The Palace Suites are located in their own wing, in case your pampered pup is shy or elderly, and have the added luxury of raised bedding.
The Pooch Hotel also offers swim, treadmill and underwater treadmill sessions, as well as six week classes, holistic diet consultations and aromatherapy baths at the “Spaw.”
I couldn’t have been Lilly Pulitzer in another life because…she’s still alive, but I’ve always had a soft spot for the preppy “pink-and-green” color combo Pulitzer often uses in her designs. I was initially attracted to Bond no. 9 High Line because of its pink-and-green bottle — not its juice; High Line is a type of fragrance (rather artificial, high-pitched and “Fresh!”) I usually shun, and yet….
Bond no. 9 describes High Line as “the scent of wildflowers, green grasses…and urban renewal” with “a hint of industrial grit.” High Line (perfumer: Laurent Le Guernec) was created to celebrate the “new” High Line* “neighborhood” of New York City which is: “An improbable aerial walkway lined with concrete planks and railroad tracks, landscaped with meadows, wetlands, and wildflowers, the High Line hovers 30 feet above street level as it meanders along its route from the Meatpacking District to the former 34th Street rail yards — sometimes bridging its way through buildings along the way.“
High Line, the fragrance, is categorized as “an androgynous floral-marine” perfume (the “marine” notes reference the nearby Hudson River); it includes notes of bergamot, purple love grass (Eragrostis spectabilis), Indian rhubarb, red-leaf rose, orange flower water, Lady Jane tulips (Tulipa clusiana), grape hyacinth, sea moss, teakwood, bur oak and musk. (I found nary a hint of “industrial grit” in the notes.)
High line starts with a burst of bergamot and a clean and tart “vegetal-fruit” aroma…
