Here's another one for the guys. Let's face it, this Valentine's Day you are totally expecting something special from your love, so why not show him how much you care and pamper him with a special gift too! Here are a few new fragrances that have just launched for the big day. He is sure to love at least one of these, if not, he'll definitely be into the fact that you think he smells swell.

R.S.V.P. by Kenneth Cole, $59.50, is a strong, handsome and masculine scent. It should be after all, Jon Bon Jovi, (my Valentine's Day crush) is the face of it! It's made from notes of: grapefruit, lavender, wet grasses, iris, orchid, cedar wood, amber, musk, and soft cashmere.

R.S.V.P. Kenneth Cole is also donating a portion of the proceeds to HELP U.S.A, The Philadelphia Soul Charitable Foundation and Habitat for Humanity. You can buy this scent in three variations: a 3.4 oz bottle for $59.50, a 1.7 oz bottle for $45 and a deodorant stick for $16.

Ralph Lauren and Nautica alumna Nili Lotan thinks of the past when designing for the future. Memories of her childhood during the turbulent late 60s and early 70s provoked the Israeli-born designer to weave printed silk keffiyehs, Palestinian embroidery, and silkscreened war protesters into her Spring 2008 collection.

In addition to those striking symbols, Lotan rounds her collection out with lots of silk charmeuse, plunging necklines, and bohemian prints to give off the feel of the sixties-meets-seventies inspiration.

Pieces from Nili Lotan's Fall collection are available at Shopbop and run from $283-$912.

This 25-year-old blonde Model of the Week, Cynthia Kirchner, took her modeling career into her own hands in 2002, when after continually being asked by people to model, she got herself to a modeling agency. From little 'ol Hazleton, PA, she instantly caught the eye of Nous Models in Los Angeles and booked jobs for Guess? and Abercrombie and Fitch in her first week.

More recently, Cynthia has appeared in ads and catalogs for Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue, Express, Nautica, Revlon Eyewear, Christian Lacroix Lingerie and more. She has graced the covers of Cosmopolitan and WWD, and has even starred in music videos for Enrique Iglesias (Don't Turn Out the Lights) and Justin Timberlake (Like I Love You).
