FRAGRANCE

Excuse  the lack of posts, I have valid and boring excuses, but I am back dear readers! Today's post is dedicated to a very important subject for all men, their scent. Studies show that 95% of women prefer men who smell good and feel that perfume increases a man's charm. Of course, an attractive fragrance can help you get more appreciation and will give you more confidence. In my opinion you should choose different perfumes according to varied occasions.  As summer sets in, look for lighter fragrances with notes of citrus and wood. And so without further a due here are some of my favorite scents:

Let's start with my top 3 fragrances to wear during day time:

1) Eau de Lacoste Rouge by LACOSTE
It has a more energetic feel, with a fruit cocktail vibe to it. It makes you feel more dynamic and so it's perfect for hot summer days out in town.



2) Bleu de Chanel by CHANEL
It is an aromatic fragrance for men which features a provocative blend of citrus and woods.



3) Allure sport by CHANEL
A casual and dynamic fragrance, spiked with freshness.



And my top 3 night time favorites are:

1) Armani Code by Giorgio Armani
An Oriental Spicy fragrance for men.



2) One Million by Paco Rabanne
Announced as a fresh and sensual blend. This smell will definitely get the ladies running after you.



3) La Nuit de l'Homme by Yves Saint Laurent
A new masculine representative of the house of YSL which stands for the strength of men.



So if you're about to hit the clubs and want to be sure to get some attention don't forget to get some perfume on.

CARAMEL LOUNGE ABUDHABI

Located at the heart of the St. Regis Saadiyat Island Resort in Abu Dhabi, Caramel Restaurant & Lounge brings luxury and opulence to anyone who enters their space. Caramel offers an exceptional environment and generates a welcoming ambiance and a relaxing atmosphere that offers drinking, dining and entertainment at one centrally located hot spot.

On the 30th of May I had the honor of being invited to a bloggers lunch that was filled with laughs and a great crowd. As soon as we sat at the table we were offered a variety of fresh juices to cool us off. Lunch then started with one platter coming after the other, and let me tell you each one was better than the other. We were served appetizers, main courses and desserts. All platters were completely different presenting a combination of flavors to satisfy everyone’s taste buds. My favorite dishes were the chicken lettuce bites (accompanied with a tasty sauce), and of course the sizzling hot rock (thin sliced beef accompanied by a hot rock to cook the meat yourself!). We then decided to end our beautiful day on a sweet note. So there come the desserts, accompanied by tea and coffee, and since I have a sweet tooth I tasted everything! The staff there was also very well trained, polite and knowledgeable about the food and that enabled me to enjoy the overall experience!
