As promised, here is my giveaway for my U.S. readers!
Here's the inside scoop about Lancôme's latest Magnifique commercial featuring Lancôme ambassador Anne Hathaway. The new commercial was filmed in March at New York ’s most buzzed about nightclub – The Box. The ad reveals a sexy, confident and dynamic Magnifique woman (Anne!). Anne was styled by fashion maven Rachel Zoe and worked one-on-one with a choreographer for a week prior to the shoot where more than 100 extras packed the set for the production.
Here are some screen shots from the commercial:

Click this link to see the commercial.
In celebration of the new commercial, Lancôme offers a giveaway of Magnifique Eau de Toilette for one of The Shades Of U readers. This spicy, floral, woody fragrance is an intoxicating scent perfect for a summer’s night out. 
The fragrance that celebrates her vibrant femininity, now in a fresh Eau de Toilette rendition. A light version of the eau de parfum that emphasizes the spicy top note of saffron, floral heart of rose and the smoky embrace of exotic nagarmotâ wood.
Audacious. Passionate. Utterly Magnifique.

Times are so hard these days that I've been reduced to sticking with body sprays and splashes so it would be great to try a new scent!

I would love to win this because I am a scent oriented person. I wear perfume daily, even if I am home alone and don't plan to leave the house. It makes me feel good to smell good.
13 May, 2009 10:43blogsweeps (at) gmail (dot) com
I'm ready for a new perfume! Thanks!
13 May, 2009 11:07I would be so elated to win the perfume because I love Lancome and I love perfume!! What a treat to be able to try this new one!
13 May, 2009 11:28ilovewoodrew (at) hotmail (dot) com
I would love to try out another perfume, and besides, I love Anne Hathaway!
13 May, 2009 11:59hyzenthlay20 (at) gmail (dot) com
You had me at the words "spicy, floral, woody"! This sounds so beautifully seductive and I really think that all women should use perfume to accentuate their femininity (providing, of course, that one is not allergic to fragrance!). I really prefer a body spray during the heat of summer for daytime, but at night, perfume is a must for me. I wore Magnifique most of the time throughout the fall and winter this year and loved it! I have not smelled this version yet, but if it's anything like the original,(only a lighter form), then I'm sold! Thanks for offering it and I loved the video and review! crystesmom(at)yahoo(dot)com
13 May, 2009 12:25I'd love to win Magnifique because of several reasons:
13 May, 2009 13:041) I use Lancome Products.
2) I like Anne Hathaway.
3) I love a good perfume, and Magnifique smells great.
Thanks for the giveaway!

15 May, 2009 11:28I would love to win Magnifique because I think it will be a great change for me - something that will rev up my life, so to speak. I believe that we women should celebrate our woman-ness, and what better way to do it than with a scent that defines and describes what a woman truly is. :-)
I've been unemployed for a while, so no beauty budget! I'd love to try a new fragrance, and Lancome makes such wonderful ones : )

Perfume is such a nice way to add a little glamour to your day, but I never buy it for myself. This would be a great chance to try something new and pamper myself a little bit! Thanks for the giveaway!

17 May, 2009 15:58I'd love to win this scent because I recently turned 21, and I need something sexy to wear to the clubs!
I'm quite tired of my current scent (Gucci Rush) and I've always associated Lancome with quality products but now I'm revising that with sexy, too. I'd love to test out this new fragrance and make it my #1 scent.

I would love to win Magnifique so that I could own a new perfume (this is a rare occasion, to get a new perfume). I only have one right now, so I would be doubling my perfume repetoire by winning.

I would LOVE to win. I have recently been laid off and could really use a pick-me-up! Not to mention, I love having a variety of perfumes to choose from -- I'm not the type of person who has a "signature scent" -- I would rather switch it up.
19 May, 2009 03:11Thanks!

20 May, 2009 22:21lavenderscent28@yahoo.com
The fragrance sounds lovely and it would be something I buy. I love "earthy" sophisticated scents because the chemistry does well with me. It lasts so long.
21 May, 2009 08:24tys29(at)hotmail(dot)com
This sounds like a great summer scent. I have a hard time finding scents that don't smell too "warm" for the summer, but this one sounds nice and Lancome always knows what they are doing!
21 May, 2009 17:21(email address is visible in blogger profile))
There's nothing like starting off the summer with a fresh new scent!
