11 Celebrity Fragrances Our Editors Are Embarrassed to LoveWe know celebrity fragrances seem tacky, but we're women enough to admit we love a few of them. See which ones the TotalBeauty.com editors stock up on now |
When you ask a woman -- especially a beauty editor -- for her favorite perfume, you expect to hear names like Dolce & Gabbana, Burberry, and Chloé -- not Justin Bieber, Kim Kardashian, and Paris Hilton.
It's not that we have anything against these celebs, but there's something so cheese-tastic about buying and wearing a fragrance that has a celebrity's face plastered all over it. And yet, the celebrity fragrance industry is booming.
Elizabeth Taylor was the first to cash in with her celebrity perfume, and since then the fragrance industry has become a major revenue source for Hollywood. Take Paris Hilton. She's made $1.5 billion dollars from her perfume collection so far, and she's coming out with fragrance No. 15 this summer. Clearly there's a market for the products, but who are the women shelling out their hard earned cash for these celebrity fragrances?
We are.
Skip ahead to see the 11 celebrity fragrances we're embarrassed to love.
Now, before you start raising those eyebrows, hear us out. While we may not proudly display these celeb fragrances on our vanities, the truth is that a handful of these perfumes actually smell good. Sure, you could argue that some of these celebrities don't have any business in the limelight -- let alone the perfume industry. But one way or another, they've created scents that a lot of us love to wear. Want to see the 11 celebrity fragrances the TotalBeauty.com editors secretly spritz on every day? Who knows, just like us, you might end up needing to find a good hiding spot for one of these.

I have not had a chance to try out all the fragrances, and I did wonder about the younger celebrity perfumes. But, Selena Gomez's fragrance is great and actually does not disappear so fast. Taylor Swifts is not bad either. I admire her fashion sense also. Faith Hill's is generally good also, but does not stay as long on me. I don't go for those Chanel number 5 types which stays too much with me.

Good to know which celebrity perfumes actually make the cut. I will be on the look out for small cheap versions of these good ones. Britney Spears fantasy is a great scent.
