There
is only one word for fall 2000...luxe! As
fall collections strolled down the runways
of New York, London, Paris and Milan, we see
luxury calling out as the main theme. Legions
of models resembling goddesses, swathed in
silks the likes of which would prompt the
pinnacle of hyperbole, it's that great.

Fable - "The Million Dollar Scent"
While you are indulging
in the finery upstairs,
run down to the
main floor, and
splash on
FABLE,
the newest scent.
Created by the
Founder and President
of the [Fable Fragrance],
also known as Joseph
C. Gregory, the
great-grandson
of Evalyn Walsh
McLean. She was
the heiress
who owned the diamond
before it landed
in the Smithsonian.
This fabled gem
was in the
possession of Louis
XVI, Marie Antoinette
and the Sultan
of the Ottoman
Empire. Such
history is wrapped
up in this deep
indigo blue diamond
that Gregory felt
compelled to
bring the essence
of it to us through
scent. Based largely
on his family association,
he
translated the
legacy dedicating
the fragrance to
his great-grandmother.
Revel in the woody yet floral tones of Bergamot,
Rosewood and Ylang Ylang. A
touch of ivy, Jasmine petals
and plum complete the mix with a twist
of spice and iris to please
the most discerning "nose." A whiff of Fable
may transcend anyone of us to a higher plane.
Dab your wrists, live the legacy.....
