You’ll be as cold as ice, but smell so damn good! Check out this crisp, clean scent Snow, which anyone can wear from a fantastic new range of perfumes by Demeter. The range consists of a variety of over 40 totally original, curious and unusual scents.
The only question is which one to choose? The refreshingly crisp, clean scent of Cucumber, the freshly peeled garden variety – Demeter raided the greenhouse for this pleasant choice. There’s Wet Garden, a natural subtle scent; perfect in the morning, after showering or exercise…anytime, anywhere! Or how about Tomato; without the B and L, just lots of T! Not the grocery store variety, but straight from the vine, this luscious red tomato is ripe and ready to rejuvenate. Spritz a little everywhere, maybe not on your sandwich though!
If you don’t fancy the natural and fresh perfumes how about Sticky Toffee Pudding, an intense citrus and honey aroma with delicious concentrated flavours of apricots, lemons and limes with orange zest. Light and lively, yet sweet and sticky. We hear even superstar Madonna can’t get enough of the stuff! Alternatively why not try the sweet, crunchy aroma of Waffle Cone, a childhood pleasure you never grow out of; I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream. Another choice of the culinary variety is the unbelievable scent of Vanilla Cake Batter, a freshly whipped cake batter been captured in this delightful fragrance. The too-good-for-words scent offers you a delectable spritz – sprinkles optional!
Dirt is equally curious and one of Demeters most popular smells, real dirt is fresh and clean, now city girls can get the smell too! Check out a mind boggling combination of vodka, unsweetened pineapple juice, a touch of raspberry and melon with a splash of cranberry with Sex on the Beach. A scent so alluring and compelling, it should carry a warning label! What’s put the fuzz in a Fuzzy Navel? This perfume is a sweet liberation of peach schnapps and orange juice that will make you feel all warm and fuzzy!

Party-Planning - Making Cocktails for a Crowd
Whether you’re entertaining 10, 20, or even 40 or more guests, the special occasion experts at Celebrate with Style know that preparing large quantities of delicious cocktail coolers will please everyone and help you relax a bit and enjoy your party.
Some people mix large quantities of these tasty drinks in plastic storage containers or large coolers, which safety experts understandably frown on. However, you can mix these coolers in large stockpots or punch bowls, and ladle the beverages into large individual pitchers. Cover all containers and if possible, chill them in the refrigerator before guests arrive.
Another good idea: Don’t add ice to the serving bowl or pitcher. Pour coolers over ice in individual glasses. That way, you won’t dilute the drinks before anyone has had a chance to enjoy them.
For a pretty serve-yourself bar, put out pitchers or bowls and ladles for different cocktails, along with a large tray or platter holding a variety of fruit garnishes, such as pineapple wedges, lemon, lime or orange slices, and fresh ripe strawberries. Colored glasses and straws will add just the right festive touch.
Here are a number of fabulous hot weather cocktail crowd-pleasers. They’re simple to make, but elegant enough to add flair to any casual outdoor affair.
Note: We’ve figured the recipes for 40 servings—plenty for a crowd. Also, of course, be sure to have plenty of water, soda, and lots of other non-alcoholic beverages on hand.
