Unlike some celebrities who find it unnecessary to clean themselves or their children on the regular, Rihanna seems to leave a heavenly scent wherever she goes. Rihanna, who recently reached billionaire status, has launched her first perfume for Fenty. To celebrate, Rihanna posted a video of several celebrities talking about how good she smells. From Lil Nas X to Cardi B, it would seem that Rihanna leaves a heavenly impression on everyone she meets. Below are a few more deets from CNN:
When asked “What’s your favorite smell?” rapper Lil Nas X unhesitatingly responds “Rihanna” to kick off the video, which is more than a minute long.
What follows is other stars including Cardi B, Jennifer Lawrence, Ryan Seacrest and Jim Parsons raving about Rihanna, who apparently smells like “heaven.”
The video looks to be curated from a 2019 Twitter thread about her sweet smell.
Back in 2016, one of her friends revealed in a video that Rihanna was a fan of Kilian’s Love, Don’t Be Shy scent as she protested in the background, “He’s really telling them? It’s a secret!”
These days she’s literally got her own scent to choose from. She recently announced the launch of her Fenty Parfum.
I need the Rihanna Masterclass on how to smell like a magical creature. I found it comical that this launch came on the heels of the big bathe and funk controversy happening in Hollywood. Of course the scent is sold out already. I have been spending the last year using Scentbird trying to find my new signature scent after spending years not wearing perfume. I love anything with Magnolia as a note, that’s spicy and sweet, and am intrigued about the blueberry note. I too want to leave a cloud of heaven behind me wherever I go, so I am here for all the celebrities who were leaving reviews about how good Rihanna smells. Word of mouth is everything and I am not mad at it.

🤮 I'm beginning to think that they all love the way Rihanna smells simply cos she showers. https://t.co/1aX2REQ3QK

Some early reviews:
LOL that’s a great video!
Agreed!
That is a great video! I’m wondering if this is all her or if she has a PR team that comes up with ideas like this.
I love/collect/study perfume so I’m excited for this. I’ll wait till it restocks though. I have my share of niche and expensive scents but I do own and really like her Reb’l Fleur.
Today I’m wearing Jo Malone Honeysuckle and Davana, so pretty.
Fragrantica.com is an invaluable resource if you’re trying to look for a new perfume. Not only are the reviews informative/entertaining, they have a voting system where you can find ones similar to ones you’ve liked in the past, or see all the ones with any certain note being most prominent (like magnolia or blueberry).
A very good friend of mine is like you, Maria…she adores perfume and always has a rather impressive selection to choose from. She recently bought a Killian perfume because she’d heard that’s the brand that Rihanna wears (wore?) and she loves it. I’m pretty sure my friend bought “Good Girl Gone Bad” and it did indeed smell fabulous.
As for me, I used to wear Flowerbomb but I haven’t gotten any perfume in quite a while since I rarely leave the house these days. I don’t like buying a perfume before smelling it, though I’ll definitely check out Fragrantica, it sounds fun.
I really like fragrantica. The UI is kinda old school, but the comparisons and data are really excellent
I’ve never thought I would think this, but now I’d really love to smell Rihanna 😉
It might be a surprise to many, as you always say on this website that he looks like he doesn’t shower, but I heard similar things from fans and other actors about Norman Reedus. He does look greasy but apparently, it’s a hair product which looks questionably, but smells really good and he is vocal about regular showering and combining perfume. So after Comic Cons or premieres of Walking Dead, most comments were that i.e. Andrew Lincoln is very nice, other actors are very funny or friendly and Norman Reedus smells really well. Like it’s the one thing I’ve always read about him on Walking Dead forums and comments.
If you’re interested in more esoteric notes (blueberry) or different blends the world on indie perfumes is phenomenal. They are also wonderful if you want more atmospheric scents, so say you want to smell like a meadow in the sunshine, or rain on the pavement, these houses do wonderful work.
Sucrabeille, Stereoplasm (Canadian and will do custom blends), House of Gloi, 1692, Alkemia, poesie and more
I wish I were like those people who reads the list of notes of a perfume and can instantly know what it’s all about. Sadly I can’t, I have to try the scent to decide if I like it or not. I backed off perfumes for a while once I found out I am one of those people who leaves a trail behind, it made me self conscious.
Well, she looks great too and has good taste in friends (yes to Lil Nas X totally). Jake G. sounds like such an idiot saying that shit about bathing. Just WHY? How do we self-clean? We’re not ovens or kittens. Just no to this obnoxious trend. Rih Rih, as always, leads us to a better way.
