Celebrity fragrances are, in one word, iconic. Throughout the current resurgence of 2000s fashion and beauty, in which we’ve seen Juicy Couture and clear lip gloss make the comebacks of the century, celeb fragrances have remained under the radar and grossly under-appreciated. And I, for one, refuse to stand for it any longer. To usher […]

Like having their mugshot taken or leaking a sex tape, creating a fragrance is a rite of passage for many celebs. And while creating perfumes is a celeb’s rite of passage, wearing those scents is a prepubescent teen’s. I mean, who hasn’t stunk up their middle school hallway in—insert literally any celeb’s name—sugar-scented concoction? Yes, […]

Excited to announce my newest fragrance “RiRi”… coming soon! #ThisIsRiRi A photo posted by badgalriri (@badgalriri) on Jul 21, 2015 at 4:59pm PDT The jig is up: celebrities are about as involved in their fragrances as most of us are in the release of them. (Not very.) But for illusion’s sake, most still stay relatively […]

The post Why it’s actually great that Rihanna looks unrecognizable in the “RiRi” fragrance campaign appeared first on FASHION Magazine.

From the floral headdress Katy Perry wore to The Great Gatsby NYC premiere to the embellished crown she paired with her Dolce and Gabbana frock at this year’s Met Gala, the Queen of pop clearly has a penchant for regal accessories. Perched atop a golden throne, Perry flaunted her latest royalty-approved ensemble, a Thom Browne ball gown and crown-clad nails, at the recent launch of her newest fragrance Killer Queen.

Due out in August, Killer Queen marks Perry’s third venture into the world of fragrances, and one that seems to be a complete departure from her cutesy aesthetic.

Having already launched three perfumes (Reb’l Fleur, Rebelle and Nude) over the past few years, Rihanna is no stranger to the world of fragrance.

In the campaign for her latest scent, Rogue, the Barbadian popstar stuns with her natural beauty once again, in little more than a simple black nightie and a signature seductive glance as photographed by Italian photographer Mario Sorrenti.

If Katy Perry’s self-proclaimed fall from cloud nine is an example of anything, it’s that the pop star knows how to hit the ground running. Her summer 3D movie Katy Perry: Part of Me was a box-office hit and every single released by the singer has become an instant chart topper. Now, Katy Perry is continuing with her fragrance line but going bigger and bolder.

Today it was announced that Katy Perry has signed a contract with Coty Inc.—the global beauty manufacturer that has brands such as OPI, Marc Jacobs and Rimmel in its portfolio—to distribute her two existing perfumes (Meow! and Purr) and work alongside as she develops her third signature scent. “I’m excited to share what’s next in my perfumed world,” she said via press release.

With multiple fashion labels under their belt and a CDFA Award for Designer of the Year, it seems that Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen are now taking on the fragrance world. It was just reported that the 26-year-old twins are joining forces with Sephora to release a new fragrance under the banner of their contemporary clothing line, Elizabeth and James.

Lady Gaga continues to entice us with the premiere of two teaser videos for her soon-to-be-released eau de parfum, Fame. In true Lady Gaga form, the results are a sensory feast, shot by fashion photographer Steven Klein. The videos play on the dark nature of Lady Gaga’s black-to-clear fragrance and feature sinister imagery that naturally includes lots of leather and latex.

While celebrities have always used Twitter as a way of reaching their fans directly, tweeting major announcements and exclusive sneak peeks are becoming more and more commonplace. (Case in point: Lady Gaga.) This morning Nicki Minaj tweeted the first picture of her forthcoming fragrance Pink Friday, and, as predicted, the fans went wild. The bottle may have something to do with it, though: modeled after Minaj it’s very Jem and the Holograms with a candy pink bob and gold vanity chain.
