Jennifer Lopez Deseo Forever, & celebrity perfume news round-up 2008, part the sixth

J Lo Deseo Forever fragrance

Jennifer Lopez has launched Deseo Forever, the Asia-exclusive flanker to her recently launched Deseo fragrance. Deseo Forever is described as a sheer and sparkling fruity floral scent:

Inspired by a shower of petals in Jennifer’s rain-kissed garden, Deseo Forever is a sparkling bouquet wrapped in lush femininity. A secret burst of summer peach, fresh freesia petals and orange blossom hidden with the hint of mineral notes and sheer musk.

Jennifer Lopez Deseo Forever is available in 30, 50 and 100 ml Eau de Toilette. (via shopping.changiairport.com.sg)

In other Jennifer Lopez news, she is going to do a reality show:

Cameras will follow Lopez and her third husband, Latin singer Marc Anthony, as she launches a new fragrance and juggles her responsibilities as a first-time mother.

The 38-year-old star is billed as the co-creator and executive producer of the show, which will air on The Learning Channel. No launch date has been set.

“I’m looking forward to sharing this exciting journey together,” Lopez said.

I wish I’d had television cameras following me around when I was a new mother, don’t you? (via telegraph.co.uk)

And a little bon mot from actor Ashton Kutcher:

If I can smell your perfume and we’re not making out, you’re wearing too much. More of a lot of things in life is better. Perfume does not apply.

Keep that in mind, ladies. (via sfgate)

    You know, that Deseo bottle really irks me. It looks like something plastic that melted in the sun. I keep expecting to pick it up and find a sticky puddle underneath. And that also irks me – every time I see a Deseo tester, I pick it up and sniff. Why? I know perfectlly well I don't like it. It's like some weird perfume perversion – expecting it to suddenly smell the way I thought it would!

    I thought this perfume was already light enough… Pretty soon they will be bottling water and calling it perfume?

    LOL at “something plastic that melted in the sun”! I don't like the bottle either.

    The Asian market is presumed to like VERY light scents…so I can see why they'd try a lighter EdT version.

    I don't get the point of issuing a flanker when the original is so new. At least wait a couple of years.

    Actually having thought about it,I wouldn't mind borrowing JLo's film crew for going shopping. I'm fairly certain she won't have any trouble getting a pram down the aisles of all the places she wants to shop.

    I've always liked Jennifer Lopez. Her perfumes, however, are not great, I don't care how much Glow she's sold. Deseo has too much pineapple for my tastes. The bottle is interesting. Have a feeling I'd like the blue version's juice better. Reality TV was the kiss of death for Nick & Jessica; hope it isn't for Jen & Marc.

    As for Ashton, I hope he made that quote before he got married. Who would want to make out with a guy who rarely shaves? A. it looks ugly B. your face would be in ribbons.

    I don't know if they released the original Deseo in Asia, so perhaps it is “new” there?

    I liked Glow & Miami Glow…and Deseo, while not to my taste, was well done. I do think she does way better than most celebs, but it isn't a crowded market of excellence :-)

    I don't know a darn thing about AK except that he's married to Demi Moore.

    I thought that one of the commandments was “Thou shalt not release a flanker perfume within one year of the original/previous flanker being released.”?

    Ashton, if you make out with me I'll promise to go easy on my Bandit!

    There you go, I'm sure that will satisfy him ;-)

    Yes, but again, this is Asia-only so doesn't count, esp. if they didn't release the “regular” Deseo in Asia (and don't know if they did or not).

    I love that it's not just any old ordinary burst, but a “secret burst”. It's like the copywriters are playing Mad Libs with the adjectives these days!

    It's because it is hiding, along with the orange blossom ;-)

    To me the bottle looks like a jelly bottle a bit out of shape and out of balance. :-)

    He just doesn't know what he's missing.
