I went to school with a girl called Enjoli.
By the time we were in our early teens she requested she call her Jo.
It’s all starting to make sense.

OP, it's because of her ability to kiss her husband and give him the SHIVVVVV-ERIN' fits!

These commercials bought into the ideology of the time that working women could Have It All.

The model in that original commercial, Pam Huntington, played Blair’s mom on THE FACTS OF LIFE for one episode in Season 1.

if you like, you can think of Pam Huntington in that original ad frying up the bacon in a pan for a young Blair at breakfast.
Why is she making that bizarre circular motion with her right hand while she holds the bacon pan?

She appears to be motioning scrambling eggs… tho she’s singing about frying bacon (?) Maybe too much Enjoli perfume makes you lightheaded.
Mysterious.

Gen X is the last generation of women that made a passing stab at “having it all”.
Millennial women know that to have (1) independent wealth via a career AND (2) a satisfied man AND (3) 2.4 healthy happy children in a good school with a big home and they knew not to bother to to attempt have it all, ie all three. And those that did, use aging parents and/or poorly paid migrant workers to take care of at least 2 options of the above.

Or maybe the modern gals just need a squirt of Enjoli?

Someone once told me the narrator on those Enjoli commercials was Harvey Fierstein, and I believed them, because it's someone with a really deep voice. But then years later I realized it's not Harvey, whose voice is even deeper.

She didn't quite do it all. She should've hired a tailor to fix the ill-fitting bust of that halter. And aside from hemming pants, those are the EASIEST things to alter.
