There’s nothing more rewarding than giving back to others. And If you can look and smell good while doing it…all the better! Inspired by M.A.C.’s amazing VIVA GLAM collection to support those affected by AIDS, we’ve compiled a list of products that’ll prep you for spring, and keep on giving….

It’s a new year (2010, can you believe it?), full of possibilities and positive expectations. Why not take a little time to discover a new, fun scent? The following are a handful of floral-infused scents that we are loving and think you may want to try on for size in 2010.

We recently discovered that Sarah Jessica Parker has a new fragrance in the works called SJP NYC, and we are beyond excited. It not only means the chance to add a new scent to our beloved collection, but also that we are so much closer to the ‘Sex and the City’ sequel.

Sarah Jessica Parker told Women’s Wear Daily about her inspiration behind the new scent:

“A large part of the inspiration was what I now understand to be people’s impressions of seeing Carrie Bradshaw walk down the street and what feelings that evokes for her and for them— a real sense of freedom and possibilities, a love for the city around her and, of course, fashion. We started with this idea that we wanted to create something fun. We wanted to create a party in a bottle and reflect that in the packaging with a real sense of whimsy, fun and joie de vivre.”

SJP NYC will first be released in Macy’s February 2010. Then in May, to coincide with the release of the second ‘Sex and the City’ movie, the fragrance will expand its reach to an additional 1,500 department and specialty stores in the U.S., and to 16 countries.
