Tom Ford knows style, and he knows perfumes. He has launched his new ‘Private Blend’ fragrance at Harvey Nichols London.
The ex- Gucci designer showcased the 12 individual and unusual fragrances, among which are tobacco, vanilla and Tuscan leather, and are sold in old-fashioned, chemist-like bottles and can be mixed with one another, depending on the individual’s taste.
“The concept behind my scents is similar to the one behind my new line of men’s clothing,” Ford told Vogue TV. “I wanted to create absolutely unique and exclusive products, unlike some of my previous projects.”
Tom Ford’s previous fragrance Black Orchid is already a bestseller, and his new scent looks set to do the same, with twelve unisex fragrances packaged into one bottle design. Private Blend. Private Blend is bespoke beauty, which is an extension of his luxury menswear line that was recently launched in New York.
Since leaving the Italian fashion house in 2004, Ford has been working on several projects including a line of sunglasses and a cosmetic line for American giant Estee Lauder.
About his long awaited collection for women, he said: “It is on the cards. I can’t promise when, but I can promise I’m thinking about it.”

Coty Prestige has signed an agreement with actor Josh Holloway to be the new face of the Davidoff Cool Water fragrance (worldwide except North America).
For the southern charmer, the sexy James “Sawyer” Ford on Emmy award-winning show “Lost”, marks the first time crossing over into the fragrance market. Davidoff Cool Water, a major emblematic cologne, has long symbolized the energy, sensuality and the cool attitude that characterize Josh Holloway.
“I love Cool Water because it is simple, powerful and timeless. To me, the Cool water man is not someone who is trying to be cool, he is someone who is comfortable with his masculinity,” said Josh Holloway.
“Davidoff Cool Water is a legendary fragrance, a unique worldwide success since 1988. As an icon of masculinity and powerful character, Josh truly embodies the values of Davidoff Cool Water. Both share authenticity and originality, both are the first and the best and in this sense are unique,” said Françoise Mariez, SVP, Coty Prestige.
It is a rather well-know fact that Holloway deives his energy from Nature and the sun. The sea is his world. Holloway, 37, currently resides in Hawaii with wife Yessica. He is also into extreme sports like paragliding and snowboarding.
If you’re living anywhere except North America (so unfair!), expect to see the sexy, cool, fashionable star in the first TV commercial and print ads for the fragrance in July 2007.

Usher stated the women’s scent “represents a woman of mystery and confidence; a woman who exudes sexuality,” and the masculine counterpart “for me, represents something I would wear — with everything from a tux to a pair of jeans.”
Both fragrances will be made by Liz Claiborne Cosmetics under the multi-million dollar deal.
The women’s lineup will consist of eaux de parfum in two sizes, 1.7 ounces for $52 and 3.4 ounces for $68. A 0.5-oz. parfum will retail for $120, and three ancillaries will be offered: a body lotion, body cream, and a shower gel.

Ronan Keating has become the latest male celebrity to create a fragrance range which also includes a female fragrance.
It is targeted at the lucrative gift shopper with all proceeds going to the Marie Keating Foundation – the charity set up by Keating in memory of his late mother who died of cancer in 1998. The range comprises a Eau de Parfum, Hope By Ronan, which is a unique blend of garden herbs and flowers, Mediterranean coriander and rosemary combine with geranium, rose and jasmine which creates a glorious, warm and uplifting scent. The male scent, Believe by Ronan, is based on Sicilian Lemon, Lavender and Clary Sage smells.
Both retail from between GBP22- GBP24 with a complimentary body lotion in the female fragrance and a shower gel for the male.
The male fragrance underlines the fact that cosmetic and fragrance manufacturers are increasingly incorporating male celebrity figures into advertising campaigns. The Eau de Cologne hits the male grooming market at a time when male celebrities, such as David Beckham and Clive Owen, are realising the growth potential - both in earnings and publicity - involved in putting their name to fragrance and personal care ranges.
With the current rise of male stars capitalising on the fragrances rage, it could be just a matter of time before they start to compete with female celebrities.
