Do you know if this guy is from the same family...Borghese....a mother and son sell a line of lotions and other bath products on the Home Shopping Network? Pretty sure he's a prince too...the mom is Amanda...she is American...and the son is nicknamed "Skip"...but real name Schipianno (I seriously doubt that's spelled correctly!)
Can't remember the brand name at the moment!! But I do know that they have high end shops in Italy.

The name of the brand is "Princess Marcella Borghese", I believe that Lorenzo is her grandson.

May be related then, but that's not the brand name of the line on HSN....cannot drag it out of the recesses of my brain...I'd know it if I heard it though!!! Better yet, think I'll go look it up or it will drive me crazy! You know how that goes.....

Found it...Perlier!

Well, the line has gone through a lot of changes since the bankrupsy of Revlon. I worked as an Account Executive for the Borghese line for several years. It truly breaks my heart to see what has come of it.....in Cosco!! Yikes. All I can say is poor management at the top!

I had the opportunity to meet the Princess a few times, at the time that I met her she was in her late 80's and then 90's. Her son, I believe her eldest son, Franceco, was about 15 years my senior. come to think of it, Lorenzo could very well be, her Great Grandson! The Borghese family still remains Italian "Royalty", yet, they hold no office, nor government privalege any longer.
