Celebrities and fragrance go together like Regis and Kelly.
Halle Berry is the latest A-lister to head down the perfume route with Halle by Halle Berry, set to launch this coming March. The project, which was two years in the making, is a collaboration with Coty, which runs most of the celebrity scent market.
Figs and mimosa, two of Berry’s favorite smells, are blended seamlessly with pear blossoms, freesia petals, hibiscus, driftwood, sandalwood, cashmere musk, amber and olibanum absolute. Says the Oscar-winning actress to WWD, “With Halle, I added olibanum, which is an African root, which brings spice to the fragrance, and sandalwood, which smooths everything out and makes it yummy. It’s very sensual, very natural, very much reflective of the outdoors.”
The bottle is rectangular and rose gold — sensuality was key to both the visuals and scent itself. Print and TV ads will be rolling out in magazines this February.
Unfortunately, the ad campaign is sans her baby daddy, Calvin Klein model Gabriel Aubry.
So does this mean that Halle Berry is leaving Revlon? She’s had a long run with Revlon.
