Rihanna's First Fenty Perfume Isn't Just a Scent, It's an Experience
“One smell, you’ll never forget it.”
UPDATE (August 2, 2021): Rihanna‘s Fenty Beauty has officially announced its very first fragrance. The unisex scent, simply titled Fenty Eau de Parfum, captures Rih’s essence — an intriguing prospect for fans and perfume enthusiasts alike.
Created in collaboration between Rihanna and perfumer Jacques Cavallier Belletrud, the scent is “spicy and sweet all at once,” per a press release. Taking inspiration from the singer’s favorite places (Bridgetown, Barbados; Grasse and Paris, France; New York City and Los Angeles), notes of magnolia and musk are combined with fruity and floral accords including tangerine, blueberry, rose and geranium.
“It’s an experience, it’s a memory, encapsulated into a fragrance,” Rih herself said of the scent. “One smell, you’ll never forget it.” The artist extended her personal touch to the packaging, too. An amber-brown bottle reflects the icon’s favorite color, as well as her distinct aesthetic that merges vintage and modern, masculine and feminine. “Brown is my favorite color. Brown is who I am. Brown is what I come from. If I’m going to make a fragrance that represents me, even the body language of the bottle needs to marry that,” she explained.
Fenty Eau de Parfum will retail for $120 USD and release on August 10 at the Fenty Beauty website.
ORIGINAL STORY (July 28, 2021): Rihanna’s Fenty Beauty is finally venturing into the world of fragrances. The Barbadian musician and designer took to Instagram to tease her brand’s new product with the caption, “#FentyParfum Coming Soon.”
Fenty Beauty also announced the upcoming launch with a sneak peek of what the perfume bottle looks like. Based on the short Instagram clip, the packaging arrives in a see-through sunset orange bottle engraved with the Fenty logo. “Something sensual, confident yet sexy. Coming your way very soon…,” the label said.
