FiFis -The Fragrance Foundation Award Winners 2011

Last night the Oscars of the fragrance industry were handed out, The Fifis. On hand were celebs Halle Berry and Fergie both honorees, as well as all the major players in the fragrance world, mostly  behind the scenes types .  I heard that Halle Berry brought her perfume's creator up wot accept with her which was a very nice touch. (Speaking of Halle, does she have a pact with the devil for that body ? She showed up baring plenty of skin but on her , it works. )

The big winner- Gucci Guilty. They took the CEW award last week now 2 Fifis. Not my choice but I apparantly am in the minority here . I am thrilled to see  Tom Ford Azure Lime get a win,  and also Balenciaga Paris. Both well deserved. Bath and Body hit a home run with their men's lines last year and  picks up a  Fifi for it  also.
