Rihanna is widely regarded as one of the best-smelling celebrities, with numerous A-listers complimenting her scent. Jennifer Lawrence, Lil Nas X, and Nigella Lawson have all praised her fragrance. While the exact perfume she uses has been a topic of speculation, several scents are consistently associated with her.
One of the most commonly cited is Love, Don't Be Shy by Kilian, often considered her signature scent. This warm floral perfume features notes of orange blossom, vanilla, and marshmallow, with an amber base. However, it comes with a high price tag: £225 for 50ml and £355 for 100ml, though refills are available at £270 for 100ml.
In a 2017 interview with Vogue France, Rihanna revealed that she wears Gucci Rush every day. This 1990s fragrance combines rich florals and spicy accords, with notes of gardenia, jasmine, Turkish rose, and vanilla. It is notably more affordable, priced at £34.85 for 50ml on sale.
In 2021, Rihanna launched her own Fenty Fragrance, drawing inspiration from her favourite scents. It includes notes of magnolia, musk, Bulgarian rose, and tangerine. The 30ml bottle is currently on sale at Boots for £52, down from £65.
