How to Smell ’Up’, Even When the Dow is Downnnnnnnnn
Just our Two Scents
Your 401k is at 1986 levels; your net worth is not worth talking about. Take heart, you can still smell like its 2003 and your best friends’ were named Freddie and Fannie.
Created in 1948, Cypres Musc was worn by none other than Greek shipping magnate and Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy’s second spouse, Aristotle Onassis. Mossy and woodsy, it oozes machismo and mucho money. English mint enhances the cypress accord, along with ambergris and musk. This fragrance is expensive; you may not have enough change left to buy a Vente Latte. No worries, one spritz of Cypres Musc and you’ll feel like the next Howard Schultz (founder of Starbucks), except you’ll make your first billion somewhere with much better weather.
Cypres Musc is from CREED Private Collection. It is available in flacons of 8.4 ounces only
Available at Bergdorf Goodman NY and www.creedcollection.com

Mark Birley for Men is the type of scent that brings to mind all that fascinates us about the British ---scandal, adultery, money, royalty, yet somehow low key and subtle. Mark Birley, the legendary British entrepreneur, restaurateur, night club owner, men’s clubs and hotels (including Annabel’s and Harry’s Bar) Mark Birley passed away in 2007, but his jet set legacy lives on, fragrantly through this elegantly constructed cologne. Birley teamed up with Frederic Malle, one of the leading perfume experts in France and Pierre Bourdon, the father of contemporary men's perfumery to create this cologne.
Mr. Birley was not an easy man to please; it took 32 revisions to create the final fragrance; created using all natural ingredients, Mr. Birley must have driven his perfumers mad globe trotting to hunt for Bergamot from California, Orris from Florence, Vetyver from China and Cedar wood from Texas.
Hopefully they flew first class.
