Christina Aguilera Fragrances is a perfume brand by American singer-songwriter Christina Aguilera. It was founded in 2007 in a deal with Procter & Gamble (P&G), who manufactured the products until 2016, after its production and distribution rights were bought out by Elizabeth Arden, Inc. In addition to fragrances, the brand has also worked with the production and sale of other cosmetics, including body lotions, body sprays, bath gels, and deodorants.
The line was influenced by a wide variety of flowers, exotic fruits and Aguilera's childhood in Japan. In addition to being met with positive reviews by perfume critics, the scents received numerous awards and accolades, including at the Duftstars Awards and FiFi Awards. The brand's products became successful after its launch, especially in Europe, where it is referred to as the "number-one celebrity perfume line". In January 2016, its monthly gross income was $80 million, according Stifel analysts. The fragrances also achieved popularity among celebrities and was worn by stars such as Perrie Edwards, Steve Antin and Aguilera herself.
In 2000 Aguilera signed a deal with New Dana Perfumes Corporation (NDPC) to promote, choose colors, products and packaging for Fetish cosmetics line. [1] The brand consisted of a wide variety of makeup, nail arts, shower gels, bath oils, body lotions, [2] as well three fragrances—manufactured in partnership with International Flavors & Fragrances (IFF). [3] Commercialized at Sears and Walgreens stores, [4] the brand's slogan referenced the title of her Billboard Hot 100 number-one single "What a Girl Wants". [3] NDPC's executives expected to increase the company's wholesales in $50 million with the release of Fetish line in 2001, [3] and it was promoted with a strong advertising in the leading teen magazines, including Seventeen , Allure and YM . [5] Aguilera discussed about endorsing the products, stating "I am a lover of fashion and playing with makeup, and I want to have a big say in this [...] I am always checking out products. I can bring these amazing trends around the world to teens. I get to give back in my own way". [6] However, in 2002, she did not renewed her contract with the corporation, aiming "new directions" in beauty business, and the brand was discontinued. [4]
Aguilera returned to the fragrance industry in 2004; she signed a contract with the Greek manufacturer Sarantis, releasing three distinctive scents as part of the Xpose line. [7] The brand was sold in selected European countries only and was promoted with television advertisements. [8] Irish Examiner reported that the perfumes line "garnered international success" in terms of sales. [9] In 2007, Women's Wear Daily announced a long-term licensing deal from Procter & Gamble (P&G) to create the Christina Aguilera Fragrances. [10] Heike Hindenlang, company's global marketing director, commented about the partnership with Aguilera, adding "She sends out a clear message and clear connection with fans. She tries to empower her fans, particularly women, to get out of difficult situations. Christina is also omnipresent in the media". [11] Aguilera revealed that her debut scent under the line would be released in the same year, and explained her team up with the corporation: "I love trying new things in my music and in fashion. To have a perfume of my own is the beginning of an exciting adventure. P&G is the ideal partner for this new experience". [12]
In addition to fragrances, the line manufactures body lotions, body sprays, bath gels, and deodorants, [13] [14] and the smell of the products has been influenced by Aguilera's mother and son, her childhood in Japan and a wide variety of flowers and exotic fruits. [15] [16] During an interview with Marie Claire , she recalled that her mother used to wear the Poison perfume by Christian Dior, which she credits to be where got her "taste for musky [and] sensual scents", [17] adding: "One of the strongest memories I have as a child is my mom doing her makeup at her vanity. I would always want to spray her fragrance on me — I can still remember the smell. I love the idea of sharing something so personal with my fans". [18] While developing the brands's debut fragrance, Aguilera declared that it embodied "everything that makes [her] smile and relax, like tuberose candles", mixing it with "musky tones" as additional inspiration from male colognes. [19] Her son, Max, also served as a "big inspiration", as she describes his energy as "contagious and positive", which inspired a "more colourful direction" at her work both in music and in the cosmetic industry. [20]
Aguilera also worked with a range of flowers to produce the smell of her perfume line. Due to its "eternal and unmistakable symbol of womanhood", she choose magnolia to develop her fragrances, stating: "[It] is one of the oldest flowers in existence. The fresh, lush scent empowers inner femininity while soft, velvety petals feel like a caressing touch on the skin". [18] Jasmine was also chosen for the creation process, which she described as "synonymous [with] Old Hollywood glamour". [21] Other of her favorite petals to create new scents includes tuberose, gardenia, freesia, rose and Valencia orange flower. [22] Royal Desire was primarily inspired by Aguilera's childhood in Japan and contains traditional ingredients, as well as the country's exotic fruits such as yuzu, mandarin and honeysuckle. [23] Other of her portfolio's fragrances, Red Sin, references her signature color and to its composition was included some of her favorite scents like red apple and cinnamon. [19]
The scents have been known for their curvy bottle design, which emphasize Aguilera's hourglass figure, as well the covered lace on top inspired by her "love of vintage glamour". [24] [21] For the bottle of the line's debut fragrance, a black lace was designed to provide a "distinctly feminine feel", [21] developed as a reference to the "legendary dress" created to Mae West by French designer Marcel Rochas. [25] In other one-off releases, the covered lace has been replaced by a coat of arms featuring a small mirror filled with flowers. [26] However, the Inspire perfume was projected in a different aesthetic from other products; created on a "classic teardrop shape", it features a "silver disk-like top detailed with red crystals". [20] Hilary Howard, columnist for The New York Times , analyzed the brand's bottles and called it "charmed", in addition to noting that each flask of the Royal Desire scent "comes with a silver charm that can be worn on as necklace or bracelet". [27]
Aguilera's fragrances generally contain base notes of sandalwood, musk and vanilla in their composition, in addition to being combined with a wide range of flowers and exotic fruits. [28] [29] Inspire was developed as a "mix of fruity mango and citrus top notes with a hint of freesia", [30] while By Night combines tangerine, red apple, peach and May blossom. Royal Desire, called an "oriental scent with notes like yuzu and lily", [31] also mixes marshmallow, mandarin and blackberry. [32] Embodying "sensuality and true confidence", Secret Potion has top notes of passion fruit, lemon and mandarin, merged with lotus, jasmine and tonka bean. [33] Billboard magazine described Red Sin as a "glorification of womanhood with the provocative symbolism of red", and emphasized the use of red ginger, cinnamon and cyclamen flowers in its creation process. [24] Called "irresistible [and] glamorous", the Unforgettable fragrance "starts with smells of cashmere, vanilla and tonka at its base, adds night-blooming jasmine and Turkish rose", and is "finished with the scents of plum and pomegranate". [34]
Touch of Seduction combines lychee, raspberry, orris honeysuckle and sugared rose, [13] while Glam X was created as "one exotic blend of delicate florals, spicy star anise and warm musks", including caramelized peach, jasmine and lily of the valley. [35] The smell of the Definition fragrance features bergamot orange, mandarin diamond orchid and has as base notes heliotrope and amber. [36] The Moonlight Bloom scent is the result of a mix of blackcurrant, dahlia, narcissus and dark ambrette seed. [37] Discussing about her perfume brand, Aguilera described each of her scents, the message, and purpose of its products to femininity and self-confidence:
Each fragrance evokes a different emotion and mindset, and they reflect scents I personally love. I hope the scents inspires women to become the best versions of themselves [...] My fragrances always have the message of taking pride in who you are as a woman, which to me represents inner femininity. A woman embodies pride and empowerment. The bright, fruity scent provides a powerful start to instill self-confidence. This is a unique attribute women have [and] fragrance is a one-size-fits-all type of product, and I love that it smells a little different on each person. It's also a fast and easy way to feel sexy.
