Smell good while doing some good: A million-dollar fragrance for a cause
Here’s your chance to smell good and do good. DKNY Fragrances has partnered with celebrity jeweler Martin Katz to create the world’s first million-dollar fragrance bottle. But don’t go in a huff. They say the net proceed will go to Action Against Hunger.
Check out the video below to see how the pricey perfume was made:
The DKNY Golden Delicious Million Dollar Fragrance Bottle is carved from polished 14-karat yellow and white gold and features 2,700 Round Brilliant White Diamonds weighing 15.17 carats, 183 Golden Yellow Sapphires weighing 2.28 carats in a micro pave setting in 14kt. white gold making up the Manhattan skyline that is so iconic to the DKNY brand. The 2.43 carat Flawless Vivid Yellow Canary Diamond adorns the “cap” of the bottle alongside a DKNY Golden Delicious diamond oval logo. Whew.
Think the title above is total gibberish? Then you’re out of touch. Apparently LMS is the top meme on Facebook. LMS as the silver generation among Kipp found out means “Like My Status”. Well that’s what Facebook is about isn’t it really? This constant campaign and marketing of one’s self to your peers? Oooh check me out with my cool hair, my duck face and love for funny internet quotes. As if. And if it wasn’t bad enough, LMS was sometimes partnered with TBH “To Be Honest”, as in LMS for a TBH. In this case, anyone who likes the status will be given an honest opinion from the person who posted the status. FML. Like so totally. Check out the title link above for other Facebook Memes.
