Urban Gentleman Holiday Giveaways: Derek Jeter DRIVEN Sport

| Giveaways, Holidays | 56 Comments

And it begins! The first of a series of Holiday Giveaways…

First up we have Derek Jeter Driven Sport. As always, for some reason or another, I’m a bit skeptical when it comes to sport colognes. But just like Challenge by Lacoste, DJ Driven Sport has dismantled my skepticism. When first sprayed, the scent of the cologne comes off a little strong, I believe its the mint and juniper, but the lingering smell is quite nice. I envision this as a weekend or vacation cologne for the older gentlemen and a everyday cologne for the younger gents. More information on this masculine sporty cologne below:

Derek Jeter and Avon have collaborated once again to create a new scent to reflect the passion for the things that drive him, on and off the field.

The Inspiration

Created exclusively by Avon for the man who plays hard in every area of his life, Derek Jeter Driven Sport is a fragrance infused with the bold spirit of courage and competition. The energizing scent defines Derek’s drive and passion for competition and success.

Just as he did with other fragrances in the Driven collection, Derek Jeter played a vital role in the creative process for the newest addition to the lineup.

“While every fragrance I’ve worked on with Avon is about being driven, this latest scent is all about the dedication and commitment it takes to succeed—no matter what your goal,” explains Jeter. “Driven Sport evokes passion, drive, and energy. It is the excitement and hard work that leads to a win.”

The Fragrance

The Woody Green Fougere scent opens with a fresh, energizing introduction that gives way to a masculine and aromatic heart, leaving a lasting impression of casual sexiness. The notes include:

TOP NOTES: Mint, Lemon Zest, Juniper

MID NOTES: Rosemary, Crisp Apple, Sage Leaves

BOTTOM NOTES: Cedarwood, Sheer Musk, Sandalwood

*Available exclusively through Avon Representatives. To locate an Avon Representative call 1-800-FOR-AVON or visit us online at www.avon.com.

| Fashion & Style, Holidays | 6 Comments

Father’s Day is around the corner and I know alot of ladies come here when trying to figure out what to get you guys, so I figured instead of me making a random list of potential Father’s Day gifts it’d be better if you guys just gave suggestions, sooooo…

What Would You Guys Like to Receive for Father’s Day?

(all ideas are welcome, even from future fathers)

Do you really like receiving tools and ties, or would you prefer an ipod or a few of your favorite dvds? Maybe a great home cooked meal with all your favorite dishes?
