In a chat on her official fansite, Rihanna Daily, Rihanna(identified by a special pink admin name) told fans she’s done recording the entire album and promises it won’t disappoint. [...] The pop star also revealed the name of her new fragrance, which will be out by the end of the year, and it’s a familiar name to the Rihanna Navy: Reb’L Fleur. It’s much like the new tattoo she recently got on her neck, “rebelle fleur.” [source]
Guys, it's official now!
Update: According to the Parlux press release the new Rihanna scent is "Daring, sexy and truly memorable, Reb’l Fleur is as much in tune with Barbados-born Rihanna’s roots as it is with the glamour of her present life in New York City." The bottle design is rather quirky: an inverted stiletto heel wrapped with satin ribbon and topped with a gold ring. Reportedly, however, industry professionals weren't wowed and I kinda see why.
The scent will be available for purchase from February 2011. Reb'L Fleur by Rihanna includes fragrant notes of tuberose, violet, hibiscus, and coconut water [source].

Rebelle fleur? Really. There's really no-one in her staff to tell her that it means nothing in french! Fleur rebelle would, but rebelle fleur is just dumb.
ReplyDeleteAnatole,
ReplyDeletehello and thanks!
You know, that would be the least of my worries, having a perfume with an inane name on it. Imagine having such a silliness written up on your neck for all eternity!! This phenomenon alas is all too common, people decide haphazardly and don't double-check things!
good that Rihanna has found a new perfume for her... like the perfumes here too. you can also find more perfumes similar to rihanna's @ maison.
ReplyDeleteWait! I just had a new thought: maybe (just maybe) the whole silly "rebelle fleur" is meant to echo "Rebel Yell" (Billy Idol)? (they sound about the same). A "tough-cookie with a feminine touch" tagline?
