Hellman’s Is Releasing a… Mayo-Inspired Fragrance?

Some NFL players strike deals with Under Armour. Titans quarterback Will Levis has a lifetime supply of Hellman’s mayo. Last summer, after squeezing some into his coffee on camera (for a laugh, he later made clear), the mayo company granted him a stash that won’t run out, ever. Now, Levis and Hellmans have teamed up again, this time for a—*checks notes*—mayonnaise-scented perfume. “The fragrance is everything I love about mayonnaise—creamy, smooth with notes of lemon,” says Levis. It doesn’t seem like he’s joking this time.

Honestly, it’s hard to think of another brand worn by Olympians in the pool. Speedo is the Kleenex of competitive swimwear, synonymous with brief-style bathing suits at the highest level, and just about everywhere. But for all its dominance in the water, as Fast Company points out, the brand doesn’t have much of a presence outside of it. Now, after some high visibility moments at the Olympics on the butts of several medal winners, the leader in competitive swimming has a plan to capture a land-based market.

Five Fits With: Robert Geller, Rag & Bone’s Menswear Designer

Robert Geller owes a lot to his cool mom. She owned a secondhand shop in Hamburg that sold designer Japanese labels, and took Geller, now a menswear designer, on trips to Paris when he was young to get an up close look at the culture. “She was really into the magical side of fashion,” says Geller, who recently released his first collection with Rag & Bone. “She showed it to me, and that’s how I fell in love with it.” Here, the designer opens up about his design ethos, working with Kanye, and why thinking in layers is the key to getting dressed every day.

“The marketplace for pre owned watches was valued at $24.38 billion in 2023 and expected to grow at a compound annual rate of 9.2 percent between 2024 and 2030. But what is really going on out there?” The Rake asks, wanting more than a simplistic graph anyone could read. Indeed, it’s easy to see where the puck is, but harder to tell where it’s going.
