Britney Spears and Jennifer Lopez, believe it or not, have some of the most beautiful contemporary fragrances today. Their foray into the perfume business has raked in millions worldwide. In between controversies and paparazzi, these women are firm advocates of hard work. Just take Jennifer Lopez for example, shes sings, she acts, she dances. Add to that, the Hollywood glitz and glamor that decorate her life day in day out. But despite of all the frenetic and overwhelming celebrity lifestyle, she managed to put up her own fashion label and perfume collection.

The same applies to Britney Spears. Her roller coaster personal life didn't stop her from launching a fragrance line that bears her name. Fast forward to 8 fragrances, Britney's fragrance house collaborated with the Elizabeth Arden label to reinvent the ubiquitous light and floral scent and create a more upbeat fragrance that will click with the young market.

The first fragrance called Curious was introduced in 2004. It's a soft floral scent sprinkled with vanilla, musk, jasmine and woody notes. The result is a straightforward, uber-girly scent. It's absolutely teen stuff. Curious was a bestseller in 2004-2005. In fact, it was honored as the Best Women's Fragrance in the same year by award-giving body, Fragrance Foundation.

Another hit was the perfume called Believe. Based on perfume reviews, it is (apparently) a more mature fragrance. The fruity floral character is still there but toned down to give way to more potent notes of patchouli and amber. The guava and tangerine elements embody the youthful air of the fragrance. Some say that Believe is descriptive of the more mature Britney Spears.

Her popular fragrances include Glow, Deseo, Still and Live Platinum. Glow was the first fragrance introduced and garnered a lot of following especially in the young market. Right after its launch, women were all over J-Lo's, Glow perfume. It could be the agreeable fragrance it permeates - the white florals inextricably blended with wonderful woods, flowers and fruits. People call it a clean skin scent. It's discreet, subtle and nicely put. In view of Glow's success, flankers naturally followed in the years to come.

Deseo, a perennial favorite in the collection, is a floral-woody evening scent. It's inspired by J-Lo's flower garden where intense notes of jasmine, gardenia, mandarin blossoms dance with the breezy Sicilian bergamot accords. It dries down into a cacophony of woods and minerals. Overall, the fragrance performs well and stand out from the plethora of designers that cater to the young audience.

Britney and Jennifer's success in the fragrance business started off a series of celeb perfumes the others try to emulate.
