Every woman at some point in her life — especially when those crow’s feet start getting rather prominent — wishes she could have a big gulp from a fountain of youth.

 When I first started blogging for Makeup.com, I was obsessed with Narcisco Rodriguez For Her, the eau du parfum verison in that simple, modern, pretty pastel pink bottle.
Narciso Rodriguez had me at hello. Or at least first sniff.
Rodriguez is going to make Spring ‘09 a whole lot better me and a lot of scent-loving ladies with his new Essence Eaux De Parfum Collection, which not only has a fragrance but a deodorant spray, body lotion and shower gel, too.

Catherine Barber and Annette Williams will giving out their two-cents at the Cafe on the beauty level of the luxe department store from 6 pm to 8 pm, telling woman which Donna Karan fragrances (including the original Donna Karan Signature scent, Chaos, Fuel for Men, Black Cashmere and the Donna Karan Essence Collection) best suit their personality through using a host of colors, sounds and images.
Think of it as a sort of tarot card session, only you’ll be learning about smells, rather than the current state of your relationship union (or un-union).
