Do you remember the commercial for Enjoli perfume in the 1980? If you do, I know how old you are! Ha! I have a confession to make. As a teen, while watching That Girl and Room 222 on TV, the Enjoli perfume commercial would come on AND I DESPERATELY WANTED TO BE HER! I would fantasize about being that sexy, modern woman who had it all. She sang, "I can bring home the bacon, fry it up in a pan and never, never, never let you forget you're a man - cuz I'm a wo-man. Enjoli!"
Here's the link. Take a walk in the past!

Of course, I did become her in my own way. We all did. I think about these things at 3:22 am when my hot flash subsides and I'm wide awake.

It's funny that you should recently blog about this. Friends and I were recently discussing how much the Enjoli woman influenced our lives as young women, and how much she was desperately demonstrating that bridging the gap from sixties mentality to the new liberation could be done. It looks and sounds so trite and ridiculous now, but it was important and remains a part of the women's liberation history.
I am not aware on this Enjoli perfume but its sounds interesting. Anyway,will certainly visit your site more often now.
