In 1960, Marilyn Monroe said in an interview with the American magazine Marie Claire: “You know, they always ask me the question:“What do you wear in bed? Only the top of the pajamas? Or bottom? Or do you sleep in a negligee? " And I answered: "I only wear Chanel 5!" This legendary phrase has become not only one of the most popular quotes of the actress, but also made her an unspoken symbol of the fragrance. 50 years after the death of the film star, she became the official face of this Chanel 5. In our article you will find out which perfume compositions do not leave the dressing tables of Katy Perry, Angelina Jolie and other stars (spoiler: and these are fragrances not only of those brands with which they have signed the contract).
Blake Lively
Blake Lively has long been devoted to the Gucci brand, so it is not surprising that in almost all interviews the actress confesses her love for the Gucci Premiere fragrance (which, in fact, she is). However, the star has another unobvious favorite - Ooh La La Sexy Little Things, Victoria's Secret. The composition consists of only three notes - mandarin, cherry and vanilla - such a classic "dessert" aroma.
Meghan Markle
Meghan Markle loves perfume so much that if she forgets to use it before leaving the house, she always returns.
I like to alternate scents, so I have several favorites. These are Côte d'Azur by Oribe (the debut unisex fragrance from a famous hair care brand), as well as bottles of Summer Bellflower Wild Bluebell and Fresh Wood Sage & Sea Salt by Jo Malone.
- the ex-actress once said.
By the way, for Meghan's wedding to Prince Harry, an exclusive unisex fragrance was created from the famous perfume house Floris London, which has been the supplier of the British royal court since 1820. In 2011, the brand developed the Wedding Bouquet fragrance for the wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton, and annually launches a fragrance in honor of the birthday of Queen Elizabeth II.
Gwyneth Paltrow
You might think that Gwyneth Paltrow uses exclusively organic patchouli oil, but in an interview with British Glamor, the actress admitted that she sings the praises of Nuit Pour Femme, Boss.
In my opinion, Nuit Pour Femme, Boss, is a very sensual, feminine perfume. With their incredible seductiveness and at the same time elegance, they are ideal for evening outings, - says the star. Unsurprisingly, Gwyneth has been the face of perfumery for many years.
Angelina Jolie
The actress chose her favorite fragrance two decades ago and until recently did not cheat on it. A few years ago, this perfume was discontinued, so Angelina's personal assistants are now scrupulously looking for them for her on Ebay. It's about the composition Black, Bvlgari. It is a unisex scent with notes of leather, vanilla, sandalwood, amber and oakmoss.
When a rare scent still cannot be found, Jolie uses as a replacement Carolina Herrera by Carolina Herrera with accords of tuberose, lily of the valley, apricot and white cedar.
Kate Middleton
Like many British women, Kate adores the mono aromas of the London perfume house Jo Malone. At her request, candles with this floral-citrus perfumery composition were lit in Westminster Abbey on the day of her wedding to Prince William, and the Duchess herself perfumed herself with the scent of orange blossom.
Kate also holds the L. K. brand in high esteem. Bennett (and we're not just talking about this brand's footwear right now). In February 2018, the company released its first fragrance, Signature, in a beautiful vintage art deco bottle that won the heart of Middleton. The composition smells of rose, jasmine, ylang-ylang, citrus, musk and amber.
Ashley Olsen
The choice of Ashley Olsen, as expected, fell on the creation of the French brand Dior. Bois D'Argent is a unisex fragrance, so soft and cozy. It has intertwined notes of iris, vanilla and musk, set off by juniper berries and woody accords. All this splendor rests in a laconic bottle, designed by Hedi Slimane himself.
Mure et Musc Cologne, L'Artisan Parfumeur is Olsen's second favorite. This perfume composition is a mixture of sweet blackberries, fresh basil, juicy oranges and tangerines, musk and oakmoss.
Kate Bosworth
The actress claims that she dreams of meeting Ben Gorham, the founder of the niche brand Byredo.
All the fragrances of the brand are so beautiful, complex, sexy and at the same time innocent. They are so versatile! I'm a real fan of these scents, especially Gypsy Water, - said Kate in an interview. "Gypsy Water" is a mix of vanilla, incense with pepper, spruce branches and bergamot. Lemon acidity gives a special piquancy.
Emma Stone
Emma Stone is a true adherent of the classics, for many years she has preferred the floral fragrance Gardenia, Chanel, which was first launched in 1925. Since then, the composition has remained practically unchanged - all the same sweetish gardenia, tuberose, jasmine, notes of greenery, sandalwood, patchouli and musk. The actress says that she invariably takes a bottle of this perfume, going on a journey:
I always spray the corner of my pillow with my favorite perfume when I'm away from home. This makes me feel comfortable and falls asleep faster.
Katy Perry
Angel, Thierry Mugler, at one time made a real revolution in the world of perfumery. Among the admirers of the fragrance with a unique molecule of ethyl maltol, notes of liqueur and caramel are Jerry Hall, Beyoncé, Nicole Kidman, Milla Jovovich, and Scarlett Johansson says that she used the fragrance every day when she was only ten years old. Katy Perry does not part with the "star" bottle either.
I do not like the scents that betray your age: they say, oh, this youth, and this one is for pensioners. I was looking for a smell that would speak not of age, but of character. For me it's Angel, Thierry Mugler, - said the singer in an interview.
Victoria Beckham
Royal Water, Creed, is fresh, zesty citrus water, ambergris and a musky sillage. This perfume was created in memory of Princess Diana and is now a must-have for Victoria Beckham. Recently, the designer has a new favorite - Room Service, Vilhelm Parfumerie. The star describes him with one capacious word - "super-shik". It is dominated by musky notes mixed with delicate floral accords.
By the way, the star's husband, David Beckham, is also a fan of this brand and usually smells like Aventus with masculine notes of patchouli, cedar, juicy pineapple, black currant and red apples.
Liv Tyler
Every day at least five people ask what perfume I smell like. But I have worn the same perfume for many years,
- said Liv Tyler. You will be surprised, but this scent is Musk, C. O. Bigelow, costing only $ 15. The actress puts it on her wrists, behind her ears and around her navel, so that a fleur of musk accompanies her all day.
Amanda Seyfried
Amanda Seyfried loves fragrances that are fresh and uncomplicated. In an interview with Vanity Fair, the actress said that on her bathroom shelf there is always Eau Parfumee au The Vert, Bvlgari with a base note of green tea.
Kate Beckinsale
Frederic Malle Lipstick Rose reminds me of my mother and how she kissed me as a child before bed, - said the actress.
