Lifestyle has done it at last. With more and more celebrities jumping on the fragrance bandwagon, it was bound to happen and Lifestyle finally decided to try mettle of their scents.
Lifestyle asked one man and two women to test a selection of celebrity perfumes and rate it. The panel consisted of Alex Bilmes, features director of GQ magazine; Roja Dove, founder of the Roja Dove Haute Parfumerie and Roja Dove Parfumerie; and TV presenter Hannah Sandling.
The panel tried perfumes by several celebrities and more or less arrived at a consensus. The final verdict is presented below:
Paris Hilton by Paris Hilton – 2/5
Glow After Dark by JLo — 3/5
Cat Deluxe by Naomi Campbell –2/5
Feminine by Cindy Crawford — 3/5
Darling by Kylie Minogue — 3/5
Midnight Fantasy by Britney Spears –1/5
Lovely by Sarah Jessica Parker — 4/5
Intimately Beckham For Her by the Beckhams — 4/5
Spring in Paris by Celine Dion — 1/5
With Love by Hilary Duff — 4/5
Though the panel consisted of three persons of high calibre and repute it is doubtful whether the losers will acknowledge their verdict. And honestly speaking, neither do I because I dont find any similarity between my sense of smell with that of the respected panel’s.
But it made one thing clear that the celebrities are not always winners in whatever they do.
