Ever wondered what perfumes celebrities wear? From model-of-the-moment Kendall Jenner to Hollywood actress Cate Blanchett, six celebrities give us a sneak peek at the scents they spray before walking the red carpet.
Model Kendall Jenner
Wears Estée Lauder Modern Muse Le Rouge Eau de Parfum
‘I feel daring when I wear Modern Muse Le Rouge. I spray it everywhere – and a lot of it! I especially like to spray it in my hair because it really absorbs the smell, and every time I move, you can smell it.’
Actress Cate Blanchett
Wears Giorgio Armani Si Eau de Parfum
‘This is a wonderful perfume. I like to spray it around me rather than directly on me. Fragrance is an incredibly powerful conduit to changing your mood. If you spray a certain scent or walk into a room and smell something, you can be transported back in time. Or your mood can lighten. So for me, whether it’s a candle I’m burning in a room or a fragrance I put on in the morning, it’s an important part of how you enter the day.’
Actress Gal Gadot
Wears Gucci Bamboo Eau de Parfum
‘When you smell it, you can sense the contrast between feminine and powerful notes – and when they come together, it’s a beautiful, unforgettable scent. I love it, and I love wearing it. Like the scent itself, the bottle is very chic – it is just gorgeous. It looks like a piece of jewellery. Once you spray it on you, it gives you the full experience of wearing your favourite jewels.’
Model Georgia May Jagger
Wears Thierry Mugler Angel Eau de Parfum
‘Angel is very connected to my childhood, and it fascinates me now as much as ever. I like the way scents remind you of certain times or people. I recall the Angel scent for many years from my mother, so I have always had a kind of nostalgic attachment to it.’
Model Gisele Bündchen
Wears Chanel N°5 Eau de Parfum
‘Chanel N°5 is a timeless fragrance. I feel it’s a very womanly fragrance. I see a very strong, confident woman wearing it. I feel it definitely has a presence. It’s a beautiful fragrance. I love it.’
Actor Theo James
Wears Hugo Boss BOSS The Scent Eau de Toilette
‘I don’t have a favourite ingredient. I like the smell of the scent because for me it has the more masculine tones. It has the kind of deeper, leathery, chocolatey tones that I find more interesting.’
