With eighteen number one hits and over 200 million records sold around the world, Mariah Carey is one of the music worlds most bankable stars.
Her latest scent is a floral fragrance that the Mariah Carey team say is symbolic of Mariahs lifelong journey.
The scent opens with salted caramel apple and star anise, bergamot and almonds, followed by a heart composed of honeysuckle, freesia and lily of the valley, while the base is built up from patchouli, tonka bean and vanilla.
The process of developing a fragrance is exhilarating and it takes me to another place within my creative self, which is why I enjoyed creating Mariah Carey Dreams.
I humbly call myself a perfumer in training because I love it so muchalmost as much as I love making music.
I have the utmost respect for the perfumers because they have the ability to combine a few simple scents into a classic and exciting fragrance, said Carey.
The curvaceous bottle, designed to bring to mind a champagne flute, is decorated with delicate butterflies on the cap. The eau de parfum is available in two sizes: 50 ml for US$49 (RM152) and 30 ml (US$39).
Mariah Carey Dreams retails exclusively online at Kohls and will go on sale from next month in Kohls stores.
Mariahs last fragrance, 2009s Forever, was developed with celebrated French perfumier Olivier Gillotin (the nose behind Z Zegna, 10 Corso Como and Beyoncs Heat).
Carey isnt the only American Idol judge with a nose for scent. Last week fellow diva Nicki Minaj revealednew packaging designsfor her Pink Friday fragrance featuring her unique style. AFP-Relaxnews
