Kristen Stewart for the New Balenciaga Fragrance

Twilight Saga star Kristen Stewart will be unveiled as the face of the newest Balenciaga fragrance for women in Fall 2012.

Stewart follows Charlotte Gainsbourg who represents Balenciaga Paris, the first fragrance, since 2010.

“I love Balenciaga fashion because it is incredibly bold and forceful, yet feminine and sexy. I found there was a real creative freedom about this project. I feel blessed and really proud of being the face of this new fragrance,” said Stewart, 21.

“Kristen Stewart embodies the modernity of the new Balenciaga fragrance with her unique sensibility and intelligence,” said Nicolas Ghesquière, Creative Director of Balenciaga.

“From her early appearance in ‘Panic Room’ to her independent choice of ‘Welcome to the Rileys,’ I’ve always sensed her progressive character. In 2006, I invited her to appear in a project shot by Bruce Weber. Since then, I’ve always wished to collaborate with her further, knowing that she shares the radical spirit of Balenciaga.”

“Kristen Stewart stood out as an evident choice for this new fragrance. She has a unique sense of style, quite original and chic in the way she mixes fashion elements. Her elegant modernity and innate rebel style perfectly match with the spirit of Balenciaga,” said Catherine Walsh, senior vice president, American Fragrances, Coty Prestige.

Madonna to Launch First Signature Perfume

Top selling female recording artist of all time Madonna is set to launch her first fragrance, Truth or Dare by Madonna, in association with Coty, the world’s largest fragrance company.

The perfume will debut exclusively at Macy’s in April 2012 in the US, with global distribution slated for May.

“I have always been obsessed by fragrance and for years wanted to create something personal that was an expression of me but that other people could relate to as well. Something honest, and yet daring, hence the name Truth or Dare,” said Madonna, 53, with more than 300 million records sold worldwide.

Madonna will be featured in a global print, television, and online marketing campaign produced in collaboration with Fabien Baron of Baron & Baron who she has worked with on many projects including “Sex,” her renowned 1992 pictorial essay on sexuality.

Truth or Dare by Madonna will be a signature floral fragrance. Its unique blend of narcotic florals, balanced with addictive woods and vanilla, creates a scent that is timeless, yet contemporary, simultaneously dark and light.

The bottle plays up the Truth or Dare duality – a classic and sophisticated shape, with modern and edgy detailing.

Rachel Weisz Wows as New Face of Bulgari

British movie star and fashion model Rachel Weisz is now the new face of Italian luxury brand Bulgari known for watches, jewelry, accessories and fragrances.

More than Weisz’s Italian blood from her mother’s side, it was probably her sultry looks that match the brand image of Bulgari’s new perfume Jasmin Noir that bagged the deal.

The campaign, photographed by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggot, with the Bulgari lion is being described as having “a seductive and sophisticated boudoir-style aura”.

The Mummy star, stunning at 40, is shot in an elegant boudoir, broodingly caressing the Jasmin Noir bottle, draped in breath-taking Bulgari jewels.

Weisz, wife of James Bond star Daniel Craig, now joins Julianne Moore and Kirsten Dunst, Hollywood celebrities who have posed for Bulgari.

The commercials are expected to surface next month.
