Description
By Jennifer Lopez
The lurid blurb says
"Deseo is inspired by her garden. She invited her associates from Coty to walk at night through her beautiful kingdom and capture the divine smell into a uncut diamond like shaped bottle.
The top notes bring the accords of bamboo leaf waving on the Italian breeze, Sicilian bergamot, yuzu, and charming, intensely flowery freesia notes. The heart beats with notes of star jasmine, pink gardenia, orange blossom and French mimosa. The base brings notes of musk, sandalwood, amber, oakmoss, Atlas cedar and patchouli."
It get 3 stars from Turin and Sanchez.
Luca Turin says that "separately its components would cause toothache and tooth rot. Together they work happily to produce a short lived but superbly trashy perfume for eighteen year old girls on the prowl"
Well, it does have a good smell! This great-grandma has been wearing it and even getting compliments (!)

The designs get more and more wild... modern perfume bottles can often be works of art, some amazing designs out there. both shots great.

Desire, huh? I do love what you've done with the bottle. I am not surprised that anything Lopez does is damned with faint praise. After all, she is "Jenny From the Block". I do like the bottles though.

Both photos are superb! I like the "superbly trashy perfume for eighteen year old girls on the prowl' comment. And yet it works well for gramdmas too! You really should consider doing a book with your perfume bottle photos.

As a fiber-arts type, I wonder who's making all those little crocheted bags? :P The bottle is grand ... I love the shape and all the facets. You go, Grandma! :)

A diamond in the raw, love the shape and I like it, that she dares to be different ... it's not an Alexander MacQueen shape but it looks and sounds so tempting, because I also love the smell of freesias very much, can't wait to get a whiff of them - sooner or later ;))

In Full View, I see you did some postwork to give it some grain: A very interesting effect. It's a fascinating composition, a threesome from large bottle (left), to box (off-center), to small bottle (right). And the knitted bag (top) takes the line from the top to the smaller bottle (as does the insert behind the box---I assume that's an insert or a tag or some product info, back there). A way one unifies several diverse elements...I also like how you cut off most of the name, and left the "e o" to speak alone. It all moves in the direction of the bottle's tilt, too. Another piece of fine design sense from your perfume series. Explorations of a theme. And the back colors work well with the greenish tint of the liquid, as the table hues work with the band and signature on the box. I'm glad you're independent enough to use and like whatever you like, not caring if it's aimed at this market or that, or agreeing with every critique that comes along. Do you save all the bottles, when finished? For art purposes? Or do you eventually discard them all? Whatever you do, it's great that you give them their day in the museum, at some point. Most interesting composition and visual connections between the elements inside it.
