Listen up, guys! Chivalry isn't dead, according to...you.

A survey by Stetson found that men claim to be more chivalrous than women perceive them to be. OK! Magazine Style Director Pandora Amoratis explains, "Six out of ten men think they're chivalrous. Four out of ten women agree with that."

Enter Stetson Caliber to bridge the gap. The latest men's fragrance from the brand embodies the integrity of today's young, hard-working American man who lives by a code of modern chivalry. So what does chivalry smell like? Says Pandora, "It's a rich blend of lime, nutmeg, black pepper, earthy oak moss [and] woody red Sequoia." And you can afford to be a little more chivalrous when Stetson Caliber is only $19 at drugstores and mass retailers.

But if chivalry smells less earthy-woody and more sea-salty to you, then Pandora recommends Nautica Life, a men's fragrance that captures the essence of the brand's nautical heritage and the voyage of sailing through life with the one that you love. And not only does that voyage include uplifting notes of sea salt -- it's balanced by the soothing scents of ginger, sage and lavender. "It's a must for the romantic guy," says Pandora, "Girls love it, too." So drop anchor, Sailor, and head over to Macy's where you'll find Nautica Life for only $62.50.

Ladies will want to listen up, too... "A common problem -- a common big problem -- for men and women is thinning hair," says Pandora. And Nioxin, the most awarded brand for thinning hair in the U.S., is rolling out a new solution called Diamax Advanced. Pandora explains, "It's a leave-in treatment that penetrates at the root [and] actually increases the diameter of each individual strand. After just one use, you'll see visibly thicker hair." How much thicker? Well, it'll look like you have 11,000 more strands. And if you use it every day, it will protect hair from breakage, meaning longer, stronger hair, too. Use it on dry hair, wet hair, whatever works for you, then just style your hair the way you normally would -- only it will look 11,000 times better. Diamax Advanced can be found at salons nationwide; to find one near you, visit Nioxin.com.
