The Girls Next Door promoting the Playboy fragrances

The Playboy empire is spreading -- aside from the nudie magazines and clothing, it's reaching out into fragrances, too. The ladies from The Girls Next Door attended a party in the penthouse of Manhattan's Hotel on Rivington to celebrate the launch last week, and shared some details about their favorite scents.

Give your home a Zensual makeover

Whether you've invited just a couple of pals or a whole bunch of people over, whenever you have guests in your home, you want it to make a good impression. That means putting away your dishes and maybe doing a little vacuuming ... but what about the first thing people notice when they come in the door? What about the scent?

A pleasant aroma can immediately set the tone of the evening, so you want to make sure you get it right. We're really digging Zensual. They offer a variety of intoxicating scents in both candle and diffuser form -- candles for when you want that romantic glow, and diffusers for when it's just too hot to deal with a flame.

How to look like you stink 101: Taught by Colin Farrel and associates

Do you ever see someone and you're just sure her or she would stink? Well, there are a number of celebrities who have perfected the art of making us wrinkle our noses through the movie screen despite their inherent hotness. And seriously, that takes effort.

Here are five celebrities who make me want to plug my nose and light a scented candle. I guess poor hygiene in Hollywood isn't necessarily a bonus to one's career. Oh, and let me know if I miss anybody -- if I need to bring air freshener with me to the movies, I want to be prepared.

How to hide the smell of your own brand

DISCLAIMER: This post is about passing gas. If you are offended by such things, or perhaps your offerings already smell like roses, then this is not for you. However, if you would like a way to keep your stuff from stinking then please continue below. Yes, I will be using the 'f-word.' A lot.

Have you ever been around people? Are you human? If you answered yes to either one of these questions then it is quite likely that you have experienced a time when you let a little something slip. You may have been laughing too hard, or perhaps you thought you would be alone in a room. It happens- sometimes for no reason at all. It's okay, everybody farts.

There are two schools of thought on this, a) it's funny, or b) it's gross and inappropriate. The former is usually reserved for events involving the pulling of one's finger or the creation of what the Finnish call a "Dutch Oven." Let's assume that we agree on the latter.

What is a fart? It's just built-up gas being released from the body. It needs to be done. Lab rats have literally exploded when unable to fart (I made this part up). The public outcry over the act of releasing this gas is based on the fact that it stinks. Badly.

That is where Subtle Butt disposable gas neutralizers ($9.95) come in. Seriously. It's an adhesive patch that is applied to the back of the wearer's undergarment to filter emissions. It reminds me of ~~when we~~ those guys that blew pot through a toilet paper roll stuffed with dryer sheets. The only smell that came out was a mountain spring sprinkled with lilac and a talking stuffed bear. So I've heard.

The website actually has a video on how to apply the product but it kind of grossed me out.

Woman's perfume is so offensive it leads to a lawsuit

Email thisPosted Jul 6th 2007 at 7:55AM by Jonathon Morgan

Remember that lady you passed on the street who's perfume was so foul that it made you gag for the next three blocks? Apparently she works in the planning department for the city of Detroit, and her co-workers aren't happy about it.

Either that, or Susan McBride is a big wuss. She's the one filing a lawsuit against the city, saying that -- due to her sensitive schnoz, and the inescapable stench of her co-worker's fragrance -- her work environment is in violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act.

McBride is looking for unspecified damages, and a ban on scents at work.

Normally I'm not a huge fan of petty legislation like this, but I can't stand it when you can smell a person's perfume (or cologne, for that matter) from across the room. It's gross, it's a public offense, and it needs to be stopped. So I saw go Susan! Win that lawsuit, and teach your stinky co-worker a lesson!
