Although celebrity fragrances aren’t always to everyone’s taste, our beauty editor Laura Mulley says, “I’m so impressed with this new launch because it smells so luxurious.”
You might initially turn your back on celebrity perfumes if you’re a bit of a fan of fragrances, but for a long time I was. I’ve been considering this new A-lister’s release seriously, though.
Selena Gomez’s beauty brand Rare Beauty, which sells for £71 for a 50ml bottle, just launched its first perfume, Rare Eau De Parfum. It has quickly grown to be a new firm favorite for a number of reasons, not to mention the fact that it has become a particularly adored one.
Amy Dowden credits “amazing” serum for encouraging hair growth following chemotherapy.

First, the bottle. It has been so thoughtfully designed, and not only does it look great, it looks luxe and unobtrusive in muted pink and nude colors, and doesn’t look like a posh pot of face cream. To create an accessible bottle that is accessible to everyone, including those with motor disabilities, RARE Beauty collaborated with certified hand therapists.
This includes a large, wide atomizer that can even be pushed with your palm, a short, squat shape that won’t topple over, and a twist lock-unlock mechanism that eliminates fussy little lids. It’s incredibly simple and satisfying to spray, and a lot of mist is also dispersed with each pump, making it so much easier and satisfying for someone without any motor problems.
Of course, the smell is probably what matters most, and I was delighted to learn that it also wins. The exact notes are as follows:
- Top: Pink Pepper, Pistachio, and Caramel.
- Mid: Cocoa Beans, Ginger, and Vanilla
- Sandalwood, Tonka Beans, and Skin Musks are dry.
Given Selena’s fan base, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that this is a gourmand fragrance, which is very popular these days. I agree with most celeb fragrances, and gourmands are. This is a true cosy cashmere jumper of a fragrance rather than sickly sweet and young.
It’s really simple to wear and doesn’t smell cloying, and my boyfriend only ever complimented it, which is unusual.
I do need to re-spritz my skin a few times throughout the day if there is one thing I can’t stand. It doesn’t last the longest on my skin. I keep it on my desk and am more than happy to reapply throughout the day because it really makes me a lot of joy every time I press down.
A gourmand like D. S. &, DURGA Deep Dark Vanilla, £155, or Kayali Vanilla 28 Eau de Parfum, £73, might be the choice for you if you’re looking for one that’s more likely to last on the skin. The light, airy PHLUR Vanilla Skin Body Mist, available for £25, is at the other end of the strength spectrum.
