My husband’s heart sank when he spied the handwritten note on our kitchen counter.
“Hi Jennifer, so glad you’re interested in Patrick Dempsey…”
His first thought was that his lovely, devoted wife was spending her days writing love letters to heart-throb actors! Of course, 10 seconds later when he spotted the bottle of Patrick Dempsey 2 by Avon next to the note, it cleared up the misunderstanding and we both had a good laugh over it.
I recently voted in the FiFi fragrance awards, and couldn’t help but notice that TWO Avon fragrances were finalists (later, Patrick Dempsey 2 ultimately won the award for the Men’s Private Label category). This highly-coveted award is considered the “Oscars of the fragrance industry”, so I naturally wanted to sample these critically-acclaimed scents!
Immediately, Patrick Dempsey 2 is captivating. One of the things I love most about it is it’s uniqueness. Coming of age in the 80’s, every (and I mean EVERY) boy or man owned a bottle of Drakkar Noir. The problem? This easily recognizable scent always reminded women of their ex-boyfriends! Not the desired effect, right? Men… here’s a lesson for you. If you’re searching for a cologne, be sure to pick something unique! Patrick Dempsey 2 fits the bill. Notes of fresh mandarin, sexy spiced wood and mysterious green fig are sexy, masculine and soft. It’s husband-material in a market filled with ex-boyfriend scents!
A 2.5 oz. bottle retails for a mere $35.
