Celebrity perfumes may come and go, but Puerto Rican pop superstar Jennifer Lopez’s fragrance empire, like her aromas, seem destined to last forever. It was 2002 when the famous entrepreneur launched her first scent, Glow, and since then, she has earned more than $1 billion in sales alone. In fall 2010, Lopez launched her 16th fragrance, Love and Glamour, a champagne-hue creation inspired by the confident, sensual Hollywood sirens of the past. Sporting Rita Hayworth pin curls and bombshell couture, Lopez puts her best face forward to sell Love and Glamour, which, according to sources, was set to earn $150 million from anxious shoppers ready to smell like a classic dame.
It's been several months since Love and Glamour made its grand debut during fall 2010 and yet Lopez continues to dominate pop culture, most notably as a judge for Fox’s hit television series, “American Idol.” With spring quickly approaching, fashionistas everywhere are on the hunt to discover their new signature scent of the season. Not only did we find it, but we’re ready to show it off on the red carpet.
While we’ve always been impressed with Lopez’s sensual scents, Love and Glamour’s sexy package has us sold. Paying tribute to the never ending curves of movie goddesses from the ‘40s, Love and Glamour’s sculptured bottle shines with its soft gold and powdery pink palette. Even the fragrance itself is enclosed in a jewel-cap ensuring that everyone will make a double take just for a glance. Love and Glamour successfully captivates wearers with its breathtaking, luscious aroma, reminiscent of a starlet’s boudoir by the Hollywood hills.
The perfume opens up with juicy notes of zesty Italian mandarin, ripe guava, and sun kissed nectarine ready to be savored. As it settles onto the skin, Love and Glamour transforms into a bouquet of delicate water lily and blooming jasmine, leading to toasted coconut wrapped with heady, sensual musk. Never overpowering, one spritz is enough to last through hours of hitting the dance floor or mingling with a leading man.
There’s no doubt that one should add this tantalizing must-have to their collection for spring. After all, who wouldn’t want Love and Glamour in their lives?
Love and Glamour is currently available in stores.
