Revlon launches Scoundrel

Collins, also known as Alexis Carrington from the very famous TV soap
"Dynasty." The scent is advertised under the slogan "Seize the moment"
as witty and successful, designed for women with great personal style.
Joan Collins describes it as sophisticated, elegant and a bit sexy.

The fragrance is available as pure perfume, and as a cologne spray since 1981.

The Gabor Sisters
The Gabor sisters are three famous Hungarian-American actresses/socialites, Magda (11 June 1915 – 6 June 1997), Zsa Zsa (born 6 February 1917), and Eva (11 February 1919 – 4 July 1995).
They were born in Budapest, Austria-Hungary to Vilmos and Jolie Gabor. The family moved to New York in the wake of World War II. Magda had played a small role in a Hungarian film before the war, so Jolie and her three daughters decided to move to Hollywood to break into the movie business.
Their claim to fame, perhaps beyond their acting careers, is that of serial matrimony: They are known for their numerous marriages. Magda was married six, Zsa Zsa eight (or nine; one marriage was illegal and annulled), and Eva five times. British actor George Sanders was married first to Zsa Zsa and later to Magda.
