  • Road-Test: Three Sexy New Scents to Take Out on The Town Tonight

    Fri, 3 May 2013 2:05PM

    Whether you switch up your scent for the new season, or even for the beginning of May (I’m talking to you, Diorissimo), each of the different perfumes that hold a place in your fragrance wardrobe have their own special reason for doing so. And interestingly, despite the fact that I’m fortunate enough to test fragrances… more

  • How to: Build a Classic Fragrance Wardrobe

    Wed, 1 May 2013 4:33PM

    Think of your wardrobe, and the clothes that have stood the test of time (and trends). I’m guessing there are three or so little black dresses, another, slightly fancier frock (the one you tend to wheel out to every wedding), a couple of white shirts, a black jacket, some tailored pants and a few pairs… more

  • The Perfect May Day Perfume

    Wed, 1 May 2013 12:53PM

    It’s May Day! This can mean a number of things, depending on how you want to run with it. You could get all pagan and dance around a maypole. You could also go out on the street and wave placards around, seeing as May 1 has in many countries become the day of workers’ rights. Me? Well, I do… more

  • How to: Create a Heavenly-Scented Home

    Wed, 24 April 2013 10:36AM

    We’ve talked about fragrance here before, Primpers, and discussed how a certain scent can bring back memories – good and bad – in just one spritz. Mostly, we associate this olfactory superpower with our favourite perfumes. You know the ones – you spray ‘em and suddenly you’re transported back to a particular time or place. It’s… more

  • Video: Five of the Best – Wintery Scents

    Wed, 17 April 2013 8:15AM

    If there’s ever a time to do the old switch-a-roo with your fragrance it’s now. Just as the weather starts turning it’s time to say farewell to those fresh summer scents and invite in something a little more warming. Something packed with cosy notes of vanilla, rose and spices. Sound nice? Let’s take a look… more

  • FRESH SCENTS! Five New ‘fumes We’re Feeling Right Now

    Thu, 4 April 2013 3:05PM

    You know the saying ‘A change is good as a holiday”? Well, ordinarily a tired old cliché like that would have me running for the hills (see what I did there? I threw in another cliché, just to be whacky…) but they were totally talking about perfume! Thanks to clever little neurons bouncing around in our… more

  • Light Musky Fragrances from Philosophy & Narciso Rodriguez

    Thu, 28 March 2013 5:28PM

    As a fragrance ingredient, musk can go either way. It can be the downright dirty kind that makes you – and everyone around you – blush a little. I get this a bit from Kiehl’s Original Musk ($70, Kiehl’s) and L’Artisan Parfumeur Dzing! ($169, Libertine Parfumerie). After all, musk was originally obtained from a gland in… more

  • Video: The Week in Beauty … Paris Fashion Week, BB Creams and Side Ponytails!

    Fri, 8 March 2013 3:39PM

    As another week flies by at PRIMPED HQ, we couldn’t help but notice how it was a week of endings but also new beginnings. We bid Paris Fashion Week adieu and the international A/W ’13 season as a whole, while also saying a fond farewell to summer and welcoming autumn, which both Kat and I… more

  • Autumn Beauty Special 2013: Five Summer Beauty Moves That Totally Work For Autumn

    Thu, 7 March 2013 4:16PM

    Earlier in the week I wrapped my head around the fact that summer is really, and truly over. Since then I’ve embraced the drop in weather – hello, warm pajamas – and even painted golden leaves on my nails. True story. In saying that, I’m not ready just yet to give up some of my summer hair… more

  • Scent Alert! Four New Fragrances to Know (and Spritz)

    Tue, 5 March 2013 4:18PM

    If you hadn’t noticed, it’s autumn (our leafy logo surely gave the game away, no?). That means many things. Changing the bedspread to a doona. Stocking up on drinking chocolate. Dusting off the knee-high boots. Switching up your skincare. And, at least for us, buying a new scent. Oh, you too? Then you’ve come to the… more
