P. Diddy is set to launch his new men’s fragrance in December at Macy’s, an “untraditional fresh fruity woody scent” with the mouthful of a name: I Am King.

He also, apparently, has his sights set on launching his career as an big-screen Action Adventure Hero while he’s at it. This week, Diddy released a “mini-movie” on his blog promoting the fragrance, which he also declared to be his “audition tape for the next James Bond.”

Check out the extra-rich majesty for yourself:

As you can see, I Am King the “movie” has got everything you’re looking for in a fragrance-based Bond-styled mini movie: long-legged ladies, sexy international locales… a tuxedo-ed hero riding a wave runner.

The only thing missing, of course, is anything at all having to do with fragrance.

Huh.

Heads’ up: Our biggest sale of the year starts bright and early Friday morning, and you won’t even need to get out of your jammies to score huge deals. We’ve got a couple of extra-large ’servings’ of savings that we’re going to ‘roll’ out in a matter of hours. (Preview: It’s four days, it’s our biggest-whammy sale of the year, and we even give you choices of ways to save. We’re SO nice.)

As for all these maybe-not-so-subtle Thanksgiving puns (’gravy,’ ’servings,’ … even ‘roll’ above is a pun…. get it? get it?) are proudly brought to you by our puntastic (and spirited Canadian!) Director of Marketing, Alison. 

Alison’s a veritable pun-making machine, whereas we here at the Spritz are a little more… how can we put this… sensitive to these things. What makes Alison guffaw with glee pretty much just makes the Spritz groan.

However, we definitely admire her dedication to her craft.

So here, a list of rejected Thanksgiving sale puns cooked up and championed by our Marketing Maven. Genius or gratuitous? You decide.

*  Gobble up these savings or you’ll feel like a turkey!
*  Harvest these deals!
*  Touchdown! Huge Sale! 
*  This sale Plymouth ‘Rocks!’ (After this one, she unleashed a TOTALLY self-satisfied cackle. And repeated it 3 times.)
*  Horn of Plenty of Perfumes
*  A Cornucopia of Savings! 

p.s. Below, for your edification, an artists rendition of our pun artist. For the record, she looks exactly like this, except she wears way better jeans.

People’s Sexiest Man Alive Issue hit stands Friday. And besides being full-to-the-brim with pics of handsome hunks (hubba hubba!), for the first time the mag’s also aiming for your other senses with an innovative scratch-n-sniff “Sexy Scents” section. 

It goes like this: Michael Phelps loves YSL’s L’Homme cologne (a great choice for the Olympic golden boy), and when you scratch his photo you can sniff the scent. Revolutionary! If only this kind of technology was around back when we were papering the walls with our crushes from Tiger Beat. (What do you the New Kids wore back in the day?)

Still, some of the featured pin-ups don’t name a signature scent, just accords that they are fond of. That’s where we come in…

Gossip Girls hottie Chace Crawford tells the mag he loves the smell of “freshly cut grass.” Well, Chace, looks like we know what we’re putting under the tree for you this year: Loris Azzaro’s Chrome cologne. Reminiscent of grassy fields and fruit trees, this refreshing frag will drive the ladies wild, guaranteed.

When it comes to scents, Law & Order Hot Cop Chris Meloni reports he prefers “a day at the beach” to the mean streets of NYC. Our pick for you, Mr. Meloni: Bermuda Tonic by Aramis. With bitter rum and sweet coconut accords, you can’t get a more seaside-smelling scent. Surf’s up, Detective Stabler!

Private Practice star Taye Diggs says he’s a fan of vanilla, chocolate, sandalwood and musk concoctions. Hey Taye! We think you should give Lacoste Elegance cologne a try. This oriental fougère has bitter chocolate, amber, musks, raspberry and sandalwood notes. Yummy!

Ahh…coffee. A casual beverage for some, a daily manifesto for others. (Personally, we at the Spritz went to bed last night already thinking about how great our first cup would be this morning. For the record: Tall Americano with room, and it was terrific.) 

Regardless of your level of addiction, there’s no arguing that there’s something warm and super inviting about the smell of a good cup o’ joe. 

English playwright John Van Druten once said, “I think if I were a woman I’d wear coffee as a perfume.” And he was definitely on to something. Evidence?  An ever-increasing amount of coffee scents currently on the market (both for women and men). 

Here, take your pick from a few of our faves:

Have a daily latte habit? Vanilla with extra foam, perhaps? Try L’or de Torrente perfume by Torrente. The intoxicating oriental-floral offers a blend of fruity notes in the top, which dry down over a rich base of vanilla, white amber, precious wood and coffee essences. (Note, too, how thoroughly gift-able it is, with that beautiful bottle and even more beautiful price tag. . . 51% off!)

More of a Mocha Gal? Chances are you’ll love Bijan Nude perfume.  The refreshing scent features aldehydes, white rose, lilac, ylang-ylang, iris, muguet, vetiver, musk and cedar—along with the uniquely sweet accord of white chocolate mocha. We’ll take a double. (Plus, 50% off retail, people! Woot!)

Need a double espresso to get you going? Try Polo Double Black cologne by Ralph Lauren. This dark blend is rich and intense, featuring a jolt of spiced mango, roasted coffee, nutmeg and vetiver. Sophisticated and totally sensuous. (And 24% off.)

Hey, it’s the holidays. How about peppermint mocha? Our pick for your sweet tooth is Angel cologne by Thierry Mugler. The hypnotic and highly addictive gourmand includes accords of roasted coffee, peppermint, chocolate and vanilla that meet with lavender, bergamot, tar and musks notes. Deee-lish!

Yup. It’s holiday shopping time already. You better believe it.

The good news: our “Don’t Worry, We’ve Got Something Super Terrific For Everyone You’re Shopping For, Even Your Picky Brother ” Gift Guide launched today. And yeah… we really do have something for everyone. Promise.

We have perfect perfume gifts for Her (boss?), cologne picks for Him (kickboxing instructor?), even something super for the fussy teen in your life (just wait until your little cousin Lindsey updates her Facebook page about what an awesome gifter you are!)

Plus, we have all of the above at ridiculously affordable prices. We know it’s tough out there, people.

And wait, there’s more! Check back Monday for the launch of our expanded Gift Guide, which will include expert picks from Fragrance Genius Grant Osborne, founder and editor of Basenotes.net, a fragrance site that’s chock-full of great info about perfume and cologne. Grant’s a “nose” who knows, and he’s sharing some gift suggestions with us on Monday.

Now, get out there and cross some people off your list! Go on!

Looks like it’s officially “time to musk-up”: After a long wait, Sex Panther Cologne is finally available for purchase.

For those of you who may have missed it (read: haven’t seen the movie “Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy” eighty-zillion times… or even once, for that matter), the once-fictitious Sex Panther Cologne is featured prominently in the 2004 film, where it is described as smelling like, among other even Iess-charitable (and unpublishable) things, “pure gasoline.”

Sex Panther is the go-to scent for lothario field reporter Brian Fontana, who pulls it out of his considerable cologne arsenal when he’s out huntin’ for ladies.  He reports, “60% of the time it works every time.”

And now it’s available to you for the low, low price of $29.99.

Meanwhile, the boys are all abuzz over here at Perfume.com–especially our beloved Online Marketing Manager Patrick, who gave the Daily Spritz the heads’ up about the launch. (That’s extra-pumped Patrick shown below, spritzin’ it up at HQ.)

Why so excited about the launch of the new movie-star “eau?”

Patrick’s answer: “Honestly, we’d seen a significant number of people searching for Sex Panther Cologne on our site, even before it existed outside of the movies.  There’s a real demand out there for it! And I love me a satisfied consumer.”

He adds, “That, and I just gotta know what ‘the cologne equivalent of a black t-shirt with a wolf airbrushed on the front and a shark wrestling a sherman tank on the back’ smells like. You just don’t run into that everyday.”

I recently came across a hilarious post on BellaSugar featuring a gallery of awesome TV show-inspired fragrances. (Actually, one was based on a different scandalous media outlet.) Check out a few below, and click through the rest of the gallery here.

Melrose Place

Cindy Adams Gossip (Not a TV show so much as super awesome gossip column in the New York Post.)

All My Children Enchantment

Sex and the City Love (There’s also Lust and Kiss!)

90210 Gold Jeans (Gold. Jeans!)

If you love the sparkling, sensual scent of Missoni Acqua but take issue with stuffing the bottle in your purse for travel or touch-ups, the new Missoni Acqua Solid Parfum Charm Bracelet might be just the answer.

Designed by Margherita Missoni, the founders’ darling granddaughter, this whimsical bracelet features one solid-scent filled compact among its chunky charms. And at $50, it’s a little splurge for some portable perfume and a fun, fashionable bauble.

We’ve covered both Betty and Joan, so now it’s Sterling Cooper’s most fab (and feminine) Junior Copy Writer’s turn. Peggy Olsen is a no-nonsense gal. Hardworking, smart, and frugal, she’s not one to waste hours in front of the mirror, or on expensive beauty products, which is why her appeal is simple and understated. Steal her look with these tips and tools. . .

1. Goomed Brows

E.L.F. Brow Comb and Brush, $1, and Slant Tweezers, $1, will keep eyebrows prim and precise.

2. Understated Lips

Not one to welcome attention (to anything other than her sweet copy writing skills) Revlon Moon Drops Lipstick in Crystal Cut Coral, $8.99, or Jane Lipkick Lipstick in Not So Innocent Pink, $4.04, are perfect choices to maintain her polished pout sans too much flash.

3. Girl-ish Curls

Until recently, Peggy has stayed true to a simple ponytail and curled bangs. For a similar look, try Revlon Hair Curling Iron, $9.94, and Scrunci Elastics, $3.19.

4. Even, Flawless Skin

If you work late nights like Peggy, and have the dark circles under-eye to prove it, fake fresh, flawless skin with E.L.F. Tone Correcting Concealer, $1, and Bare Escentuals Mineral Veil On The Go, $28. The latter would be a splurge for Peggy, but one that — with it’s awesome coverage and easy applicator — is well worth it. Girl’s got better things to do with her time than stand in front of the mirror powdering her nose. One sweep of this sucker and she’s good to go.

5. Bare, Curled Lashes

Unlike the other ladies in the office, Peggy doesn’t rock the mascara. Instead her natural lashes seemed to have a simple curl. Try CoverGirl Makeup Masters Lash Curler, $3.99, for the look.

6. Bare Nails

While they’re not painted, Peggy’s nails are always well-maintained. Sally Hansen Hard As Nails, $2.99, and Revlon Emery Boards, $1.99, will help

7. Signature Scent

Peggy’s signature scent would be mysterious and complex — just like her. Perhaps L’Eau D’Issey by Issey Miyake, $55, Prada by Prada, $54, or Narciso Rodriguez for Her, $60.
