Sometimes it's a little sad for us to only give away only one of something so today we've got ten bottles of Calvin Klein's latest perfume, ckfree for Men for ten readers. To launch the fragrance Calvin Klein has created the "Live Free" Map tool. The tool is an interactive experience which shows you the best places in the world to "live free" and lets consumers share their most 'free' locations around the world, using Google Map software. What defines free? It's not a matter of cost, it's about experiences that make the heart and mind feel lighter. The list includes best beaches, sporting stadiums, casinos, road trip destinations and more.

The scent is designed to be a journey as well. It has top notes of absinthe, jackfruit and juniper berry with a masculine heart of suede, coffee absolute and tobacco leaves grounded in a base of oakwood, patchouli and Texan cedarwood. We are giving away 10 1.7 ounce bottles of ckfree valued at $47 each.

The name Natori is synonymous with lingerie. Josie Natori has been making soft, sexy chemises and fine undergarments for decades. Her new perfume therefore has a lot of sexiness to live up too. Natori's new scent is a redo of her earlier scent which was done with Avon back in 1984. This one was created by perfumer Caroline Sabas for Parlux fragrances and combines a bit of 1980s headiness with classic perfume glamour. The fragrance is a floral oriental with notes of sparkling aldehydes, rose, plum, ylang-ylang, purple peony, night-blooming jasmine, patchouli, amber and satin musk accord. The perfume is the natural accompaniment to a silk chemise. Check out this great review from Now Smell This.

The new scent is a world away from the pinky, fruity scents of late. This is a more mature scent, strong, sexy, a little old-fashioned, the Dita Von Teese of scent. The scent has been released as a Saks exclusive and sells for $110 for a 3.4 ounce eau du parfum. We are giving away a 3.4 ounce eau du parfum of this passion booster in a purple bottle to one reader.

Let's face it, the recession can be rough on your hair. More and more people are going longer between salon visits, growing out those high-maintenance highlights, missing out on much need trims or skimping on products. We've got a little relief today from a famous source. Sally Hershberger is an influential hairstylist famous for creating Meg Ryan's haircut, the "Sally Shagg" and appearing on the Bravo hairstyling reality show, Shear Genius.

Sally has two salons, one in New York and one in Los Angeles and in 2008 created her self-titled hair care line, Sally Hershberger. The Sally Hershberger products all undergo testing by Sally herself at her eponymous New York City salon. Her latest line is called Shagg. Hershberger spoke with our sister blog Stylelist back in April and described the line as designed for layered hair to give the layers a boost. The shampoo, conditioner and styling products are light and help hair achieve more movement and body. A video about the line is after the jump.

The line is recession priced, nothing costs more than $12.50 and you can order it on her site or buy it at your local Walgreens. But we are making it more affordable for one lucky winner--free.

Today we are giving away the complete Sally Hershberger Shagg Line, a $56.50 value that includes Shagg Shampoo, Shagg Conditioner, Shagg Style Primer, Shagg Spray and Shagg Rocks Liquid Gel.

Today's giveaway is your chance to have something in common with this year's crop of American Idol finalists, a Pennyroyal Silver necklace. The Idol contestants met with Tim Foster of Pennyroyal Silver and each singer designed their own custom piece which was turned into a unique necklace. You can check out the designs on the Pennyroyal Silver website.

Pennyroyal has a deep connection with music. The founder, Tim Foster is a music industry dropout-turned jewelry designer. He specializes in limited edition and custom designs created in pure silver and draws inspiration from his passion for music and the seven years he spent working in the marketing department at a major record company. Small wonder then that the names of Tim's designs are loosely drawn from song titles. The limited edition pieces have a rough and handcrafted feel, jewelry with a rock and roll edge.

Today we are giving away the Through The Keyhole Necklace. The pendant is a limited, numbered edition of 1,000 and is made of pure silver. The pendant is two discs and the keyhole disc slides back and forth across the inscribed disc offering a unique window that changes with movement. It is on a 18 inch sterling silver ball chain with sterling silver findings. In honor of Pennyroyal Silver's music affiliation, leave a comment answering the following question: If your bio were a song title, what would it be?
