In a bit of nose-in-cheek marketing, Burger King is selling a fragrance called “Flame,” which it describes as “the scent of seduction with a hint of flame-broiled meat.” The fast-food chain has set up a special website for the whopper of a body spray, which features clichéd scenes of romantic enticement, including the hairy-chested, incredibly creepy King character reclining in front of a fire while wearing nothing but a strategically placed blanket (an homage to Burt Reynold’s near-nude appearance in Playgirl?). If the site doesn’t bring a smile to your face and make you exclaim “Ohhh yeaaah” in your best imitation of Barry White, you must be a vegetarian.
Izzy hasn’t inhaled Flame yet, but if it smells as advertised, you can be sure it is exactly the wrong thing to wear when trapped for weeks in a lifeboat with a starving lecher.
Burt Reynolds appeared in Cosmopolitan Magazine, not Playgirl. I can still remember all us girls passing it around on the corner of my high school.

Ok so my boyfriends birthday is coming up and I really need to get something good for him. I have to admit I am one of those people that likes to buy a present for someone that will benefit me lol! Yeah I know it sounds bad, but true. So here it goes, I love a man that smells great so does anyone know if that Fahrenheit 32 by Christian Dior is a good cologne?
