Shiseido Zen
Zen, the concept: Zen is a cherished philosophy in Japan and therefore at Shiseido. The brand can draw on certain legitimacy when it speaks about it, with its expertise and authenticity, devoid of any mass-consumer approach to the concept. The new perfume from Shiseido conveys a new facet of Zen. It re-transcribes the state experienced after meditation: a perfect harmony of the body and mind, inducing freedom, energy, liveliness and joy.
 
Zen, the fragrance: It combines a fresh, radiant top note (blue rose) with a warm, woody base note of amber and patchouli. Traditional Zen, represented here by the reassuring base, is awakened by the unexpected note of blue rose. It is energy springing forth from serenity and calm. It is a floral, sparkling fragrance that liberates the emotions. It is the energy that arises from calm and serenity.
 
The Zen woman: She is a modern woman who is happy and well-balanced. The sparkling top note is ideal for an independent free-spirit, who has her own ideas about Zen. The blue rose, which is unique in the fragrance world, makes her extroverted and joyous. At the same time, she knows how to be seductive with the new patchouli, which is warm and sexy. And this reassuring base brings her a feeling of total well-being. The new Zen fosters a sense of joy and harmony everywhere. This perfume can be worn for any occasion, and in both summer – with its refreshing aspect – and winter – with its warm notes. Therein lies the true originality of this fragrance.
 
Lucky Time Out Mumbai readers can win the Shiseido Zen exclusive limited edition fragrance.

Along with cleansing and shaving products, Biotherm Homme also offers moisturisers, firming and anti-wrinkle products that have become benchmarks in men’s skincare.
 
Men’s skin has unique requirements aside from being as well as being under threat from the harsh environment and poor eating habits that often do not meet nutritional and energy needs. The skin is also subject to fatigue and stress every day.
When the skin is weakened and deprived of normal resources, it can no longer play its role as a shield. “Biological” fatigue is the result and the skin needs recharging to restore its energy and strength.
 
Biotherm Homme High Recharge Moisturiser is a revolutionary product that visibly reduces signs of fatigue and helps the skin feel re-energised. The express anti-fatigue “booster” action of High Recharge combines the effectiveness of oligo-vitamins and pure ginseng to give your face a healthy glow. Its ultra-fresh texture revives and hydrates the skin and replenishes it with energy to lessen the appearance of signs of fatigue and make it firm instantly.

A true precision treatment, High Recharge Yeux is the ideal solution for sleep-deprived nights and those high stress days.

What Happens in Vegas
The popular expression “What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas” conjures up a veritable jackpot of last inhibitions, insane indulgence and gleeful debauchery. And if you can remember any of it, you probably weren’t there. 

For charismatic party guy Jack Fuller (Ashton Kutcher) and buttoned-up commodities trader Joy McNally (Cameron Diaz), a rowdy weekend coincidentally shared in Las Vegas should have, by all rights, ended up being little more than a random blur. That is, if these two vacationing New Yorkers didn’t have a signed marriage licence staring them in the face to shockingly remind them of the giant misstep they took, Vegas-style.
 
That’s the setup that explodes into a series of outrageous consequences for two sexy, if wildly mismatched, strangers in the comedy What Happens in Vegas.

FCUK
Founded in 1972 by Stephen Marks, French Connection UK (FCUK) set out to create well-designed, fashionable clothing that appeals to a broad market. Now one of the strongest brands on the British high street and operating in over 25 countries, there are more than 1500 FCUK outlets worldwide. French Connection is the only global fashion brand to showcase four collections every year, with something new every month at the stores.
 
French Connection, the edgy and attitudinal British high street fashion brand, brings to you its Autumn-Winter ’08 collection. A step back in time to beautifully refined, design-led fashion, the collection uses luxurious fabrics and unique detailing.
 
Dresses with an early ’60s feel and fringing all over are making a style statement. Body-conscious knit styles are contrasted against flowing, flirty halternecks with large stone embellishments. Belted ’40s shirtdresses dominate the collection in slinky jerseys with glamorous gold buttons. Cinch yourself in with a belt for definition and a narrow silhouette; throw on a cropped angular jacket and you will find yourself powerdressing for a new generation.
 
In accessories, the hot tip this winter season is patent leather. Check out bags and accessories, in black, grey and red to even purple. Oversized is still a huge trend with the accent on detail. Clutch styles also continue to be popular.
 
Men have not been left behind. This season, French Connection introduces a selection of formal suits with a refined offering of classic silhouettes and modern fashion styles. The emphasis is on high quality with a sharp finish, with sharkskin or herringbone tweed, in 100 per cent wool. Suit jackets have bound internal seams throughout and slim-fit trousers are smartly finished with narrow waistbands. The attention to detail continues in an assortment of white dress-shirts. Patterns range in size from micro squares to blown-up jumbo checks.
 
French Connection also does its part to raise awareness of global issues with a new line of eco-friendly jeans and slogan T-shirts, made from 100 per cent organic cotton.

Mamma Mia! The movie
Meryl Streep leads an all-star cast in the feature film adaptation of the beloved musical that has been seen by more than 30 million people in 160 cities and eight languages around the world. Bringing the timeless lyrics and melodies of iconic super group ABBA to movie audiences, this is the season to sing Mamma Mia! 
 
The three women who created the worldwide smash stage hit, producer Judy Craymer, writer Catherine Johnson and director Phyllida Lloyd repeat their roles in bringing this joyful, musical story to the big screen. Mamma Mia! the film is produced by Judy Craymer and Gary Goetzman.
 
Pierce Brosnan, Colin Firth, Stellan Skarsgård, Christine Baranski, Julie Walters, Amanda Seyfried and Dominic Cooper join Streep in the story of a mother, a daughter and three possible dads. 
 
An independent, single mother who owns a small hotel on an idyllic Greek island, Donna (Streep) is about to let go of Sophie (Amanda Seyfried), the spirited daughter she’s raised alone. For Sophie’s wedding, Donna has invited her two lifelong best girlfriends – practical and no-nonsense Rosie (Julie Walters) and wealthy, multi-divorcee Tanya (Christine Baranski) – from her one-time backing band, Donna and the Dynamos. But Sophie has secretly invited three guests of her own. 
 
On a quest to find the identity of her father who she hopes will walk her down the aisle, Sophie brings back three men from Donna’s past to the Mediterranean paradise they visited 20 years ago. Over 24 chaotic, magical hours, new love will bloom and old romances will be rekindled on this lush island full of possibilities. 
 
Inspired by the storytelling magic of 17 ABBA songs, from “Dancing Queen”, “SOS” to “Money, Money, Money” and “Take a Chance on Me,” Mamma Mia! is a celebration of mothers and daughters, old friends and new family found.
 
Lucky Time Out Mumbai readers can win tickets to Mamma Mia!

White water rafting in Karjat
 
Date: Sun Sept 14
Destination: Pej River, Karjat
Activity: White water rafting
Cost per person: Rs 1,750/-
 
Pej River provides a rafting stretch of 16 km (1½ -2 ½ hours) which consists of 30 minutes of bodysurfing. The Pej is narrow and gentle at the point where rafting begins with slow rhythm for paddling, letting you breathe in gulps of the crisp, morning air and take a good look around the thick green foliage that runs along the river. The 16 km stretch consists of eight-12 rapids (Grade III). It’s a dam-fed river with nice gorge rapids. When water is whipped up in furious form, you realize how the term “white water rafting” came to be coined and when this is accompanied by rain, the excitement and thrill one feels can’t be put in words.
 
Caution: We recommend basic fitness level to participate. We reserve the right to abort the trip in case of circumstances which are beyond our control.

Music Today proudly presents the album of the year – Yaara. The new album marks a turning point in music as well-known ghazal singer Pankaj Udhas sings to the masterful compositions of legendary sarod player Ustad Amjad Ali Khan for the first time. The album is a unique amalgam of love songs, or geet, presented in a contemporary style.
 
The album is a grand celebration of the coming together of a mainstream, popular singer Pankaj Udhas and the sarod maestro Ustad Amjad Ali Khan for the first time. The poetry has been written by Sufi scholar Shri Madan Gopal Singh and the music has been arranged by Hitesh Sonik, the man behind the music of the award winning film Omkara.
