Not content with playing “soccer” once a year for the LA Mermen and going round Tom Cruise’s house for tea, David Beckham has somehow found time in his busy schedule to release a new men’s fragrance for 2011, and it looks set to be his most successful yet. David Beckham Homme supercedes other scents in the Beckham range, such as Signature and Instinct, to become the centrepiece fragrance of the David Beckham house. Homme is a woody-spicy fragrance with notes of ginger, sichuan pepper, and citruses at the top of the scent; rosemary, leather, and cashmere wood making up the heart; and the scent finishes with a base of mahogany, patchouli, and musk.

Upon initial release, David Beckham Homme is available in 30 and 50ml EDTs, and we’ve scored some free companion deodorants to send out with every order we take at Fragrance Mad. Check out the site now: the scent plus free deodorant is available at the quite bargainous price of £18.79 for the 30ml EDT, or upgrade to 50ml for just £24.79.

TIGI Tweens are bumper-value Shampoo and Conditioner twin packs of TIGI’s most popular haircare varieties, and we’ve got a great selection of them now available at Fragrance Mad. Tweens come in large 750ml bottles that should last you a good long while, and include both shampoos and conditioners of all the best TIGI products. No matter what style,  colour, or thickness your hair, it’s simple to find a TIGI Tween to suit your hairdo, and they’re all packed full of nourishment to keep you looking great and healthy. For those with highlighted or dyed hair, check out the Dumb Blonde and Colour Goddess ranges, designed to strengthen hair and retain colour vibrancy; if you want to bring volume to damp squib cuts use either the Bed Head Epic Volume or Catwalk Your Highness; those looking to maximise curls can choose between Bed Head Hi-Def Curls and Catwalk Curlesque; and any girls or guys who’ve damaged their hair through excessive use of nasty chemicals can use the Urban Antidotes range that has different levels of repair for dry and stressed out hair.

In much the same way that Michael Jackson dominated ’80s celebrity culture and Bodger and Badger were everywhere in the ’90s, Britney Spears has been a dominating figure in the Western world for over a decade now. Since being forced into showbusiness by her mother from a young age, Britney has lived out her difficult life in the glare of the public eye and endless cameras. Her first single, Hit Me Baby One More Time, was released in 1999 to huge success, reaching Number One in the charts on both sides of the Atlantic and selling millions of copies. This paved the way for her to shove aside the decaying Spice Girls and become the biggest music sensation of the ’00s, monopolising the charts with hit after hit. It seemed as if the public’s thirst for Britney was unquenchable, and she was harrassed by the press in a manner not seen since the Beatles. This attention proved overwhelming, and Britney’s public persona shifted from a carefully cultivated virginal choirgirl who slowly disintegrated into a wildchild, making increasingly ill-advised lifestyle and boyfriend choices.

Her life took a turn for the chaotic in 2004 when she hooked up with dancer Kevin Federline, and their three years together saw her descend into a mental quagmire, eventually splitting up with him in early 2007 to attend rehab and famously shave her head in an LA salon. Some much-needed privacy and time away from the spotlight led many critics to feel as if she was a burnt-out and washed-up talent, but Britney confounded expectations by returning and proving just as popular as ever with the album Circus. A couple more mega-hits later, and she now appears stable and set to remain at the top of the pop tree for years to come, or until people stop writing catchy songs for her, or she starts to look old.

Despite the ups and downs of her personal life, one consistency of Britney’s finances has been the phenomenal success of her fragrance lines in recent years. Her first perfume, Fantasy, was launched in 2005 in partnership with Coty Fragrances, and has been the best-selling scent of every year since its release. Britney Fantasy also has the distinction of being a continuous best-seller here at Fragrance Mad; we’ve got buckets of it going out the door at an unbelievable £19.99 for 100ml. Since this initial hit, Britney hasn’t put a foot wrong in the fragrance world, following up Fantasy with the very popular Curious (£15.99 for 100ml at FM), and then returning to the base of Fantasy for a series of variations, including Midnight Fantasy, Hidden Fantasy, and Circus Fantasy. It seems as if Fantasy may be one of those scents that just keeps going and going long after the star herself has put her feet up for retirement, in much the same way that Elizabeth Taylor White Diamonds continues to shift millions of units worldwide even after its namesake’s death. And why not? It’s a perfect sweet and sensual scent.

We’ve had a great big delivery of new fragrances (don’t worry, we didn’t loot them), hopefully just in time to get you smelling great for your Summer hols, or if not there’ll be plenty of time to freshen up in the eight month winter that follows.

For Women: Thierry Mugler fragrances are always popular so we expect there to be no exception with his latest scent for women, the wine-drenched Innocent Rock. Megan Fox will surely be dusting down her underwear for another round of advertising, as Armani release the 2011 edition of their Summer version of Code. Code Summer is a light Eau Fraiche scent, perfect for those Code girls who want their perfume to be light and airy while they’re sat out drinking Pimm’s in the sunshine. Estee Lauder expand on two of their most popular fragrances, in the form of Sensuous Noir, a more voluptuous intense version of Sensuous; and Pure White Linen, a scent with added aldehydes for an ultra-fresh version of White Linen.

For Men: a couple of great summer scent in the shape of Issey Miyake l’Eau d’Issey Pour Homme Summer Edition, and the summer version of Armani Diamonds for Men. Marc Jacobs returns after the success of his Daisy and Lola (my favourite) perfumes, with his first scent for men, the pepperlicious Bang. It’s a bit of a love it or hate it scent: for some the pepper accords can be too strong, but others love the spicy tones. The office at Fragrance Mad is divided, but everyone loves the super-cool smashed-in effect on the bottle. Davidoff follow last year’s Champion with the hot new revved-up version, Champion Energy. You’re guaranteed to turn heads if you build up your muscles using the dumbell bottle!

As you can see, there are loads of great new scents just waiting to be discovered at Fragrance Mad, so come on down and grab yourself a bargain.

Hi guys,

I hope you’ve all been enjoying the unusually warm weather over the last few days thanks to climate change (kindly sponsored by OPEC). Whether (excuse the pun) you’re off on holiday or you’re sticking around for the summer, if you’re going out in the sun you’ll want to make sure you give your skin the protection it needs from UV rays – that’s why for the rest of August we’re selling P20 200ml for just £14.99 with free UK delivery. That’s on both the SPF 20 version and the SPF 10 version, and a saving of 40% off the RRP.

If you’ve never used P20 before, it’s pretty magical stuff. More of an oil than a lotion, once you’ve applied it you shouldn’t need to apply it again for the rest of the day. At SPF 20 or SPF 10, it’s not the most powerful sunblock in the world (if you need a higher factor then Piz Buin SPF 30 is probably more suitable) but it lasts longer than an extended latin mass and, providing you pat yourself dry, you don’t need to re-apply after swimming.

So if you’re in the market for tanning lotion but don’t have the time to keep re-applying every few hours, P20 could be the solution for you. And at £14.99 with free UK delivery, it’s light on the wallet too
