@sterling.cooper.draper: Enjoli Perfume, 1978. Bring home the bacon, fry it up in the pan! The iconic Enjoli perfume campaign of the 1980s marketed the "24-hour woman" . Created by Charles of the Ritz, it celebrated the ultimate multi-tasker who could "bring home the bacon, fry it up in a pan," and look glamorous doing it. The ads positioned the fragrance as an 8-hour perfume for a woman's demanding lifestyle. The campaign championed the "Supermom" and career-minded woman who managed professional life, household chores, and romantic duties all in one day . It played on the idea that a woman can successfully balance an endless loop of responsibilities while smelling wonderful. The campaign is most remembered for its incredibly catchy, Broadway-style musical anthem. The lyrics were a playful, empowering twist on Peggy Lee’s 1962 song "I'm a Woman". The core lyrics stated: "Cause I'm a woman...I can bring home the bacon Fry it up in a pan And never, never, never let you forget you're a man!". #enjoli #80sthrowback #retro #vintage

I’m 52 and remember every word. We were told we could do it all. We did. Consequences vary.

This is the actual mindset I was raised on in the 80’s. Now I’m 56yo and realize it was a huge scam

In grad school in the 80s I was talking to a female mentor about the “you can have it all” message and she told me “you can have it all, just not all at the same time.” I have never forgotten that.

Yes. I'm 62. This is the woman I was, I did it all because that's what a woman needed to be. Happily single today and recovering.

To be fair, this song wasn't a jingle - it was written by Leiber & Stoller in 1962. Peggy Lee, Maria Muldaur, Bette Midler, Reba McIntire and many others have recorded it.
