Celebrity Fragrances. Famous faces are continually venturing into the world of fragrance, bottling their signature scents to share with admirers. Some are just beginning, with only one perfume, while others, like fashion-forward actress Sarah Jessica Parker, have extended their lovely smelling brands with new additions.
The Sex and the City star will release her new fragrance in May, just in time for the film's sequel.

Her sixth perfume, it combines wild strawberry and gardenia top notes with creamy musk bottom notes
The Oscar-winning actress didn't put her name to a perfume until 2009, though she had been blending her own for years.
