    5 minutes with... Paris Hilton

    There’s no doubt about it – Paris Hilton is an icon. After finding fame as the reality star and ‘It Girl’ we all wanted to be in the 2000s, Paris parlayed her success into multiple businesses across fashion, books and, most importantly, beauty. Perhaps her most notable beauty venture is her fragrance empire, which has reportedly generated more than US$1.5 billion in sales since its launch in 2004. Say what you want about her, but this is a girl who knows what her audience wants.

    To celebrate the launch of her 23rd (!!) fragrance Rosé Rush, bh’s Kate caught up with Paris on her recent trip to Australia to talk fragrance, summer and the two things she’d need if ever stranded on a desert island.

    bh: You have so many fragrances! How do you come up with the idea for a scent?

    Paris: Ever since I was little girl, I always loved perfumes and I always thought it was one of the best accessories – I’d go in my mum’s closet, smell all the perfumes and try them on with my sister. I always had a dream of one day having my own and now I have 23! I just know good scents and I know what works and I love designing bottles, coming up with really cool photo campaigns and just making something special so my fans have a piece of me.

    bh: There’s a big beauty trend at the moment for combining fragrances – do you ever layer yours?

    Paris: Yeah, well when you have 23 of them it’s fun to mix and match! So yes, I do love to layer them.

    bh: So if you had to pick just one fragrance as your favourite, which one would it be? I know it’s probably like picking a favourite child…

    Paris: Yes, it really is! For now, my favourite is Rosé Rush because it’s my new baby and it’s just perfect for the summer because it’s so fresh and everybody seems to love it.

    bh: Finally – if you were stranded on a desert island, what would you take?

    Paris: My boyfriend! And for a beauty product I would have to take my Unicorn Mist rosewater spray from my new skin care line – it’s amazing!

    I have never tried any of Paris' perfumes but if I come across them I will make sure to have a sniff. Sounds like she knows her stuff.

    Not sure I want to buy Paris Hilton perfume and add even more to her fortune. Sorry but just how I feel atm. Plenty of other great perfumes out there.

    I had no idea about all the perfumes she has released. However one of her older ones Heiress is my fav from her range. A lot of her perfumes can be bought from Chemist Warehouse

    23!! I had no idea! I don't think I've smelt her perfumes. I think there is one my sis used to like

    buyargos 26 Feb 2018 6:58 PM

    Great!! I also have Argos Fragrance that gives a unique and long-lasting smell!

    Isabelbolton 11 Jan 2018 7:33 PM

    I didn't realise she's released so many perfumes! I used to have her original one when I was younger and felt really grown up using it, it's not a perfume I would use anymore though.

    Princess Perfume 11 Jan 2018 9:40 AM

    I actually own her original perfume which is quite nice though it's getting a bit old now

    Unless she is campaigning in taste of a Dynasty resurge or a real wives of Texas or Vegas I think She needs to fire her stylist/ hairdresser. She looks like her mother and much more ‘mature’ than her age. That’s just my opinion.

    Thepinkshoe 23 Dec 2017 7:58 PM

    She has 23 fragrances! :O I haven't tried any of them!

    Jessica712 11 Dec 2017 8:12 PM

    I am curious to try Rose Rush as I love the rose scent.

    Beautybabe140194 11 Dec 2017 12:50 AM

    I have not actually tried any of her fragrances. Maybe I will smell the new one.

    Trish_D 10 Dec 2017 3:45 PM

    Celebrity fragrances - or anything else - aren't in my must look at vocabulary.

    Yohanna 9 Dec 2017 4:47 PM

    No, not a perfume person in general. Do like light natural based scents though =D

    misfortune8 8 Dec 2017 4:48 AM

    I refuse to even sniff it, just in case I like it. There's no way I'd ever buy it, she doesn't need my money!

    freaky 7 Dec 2017 10:32 PM

    Ive smelt her Fairy Dust perfume and its absolutely gorgeous. Like her or not, she really does make some pretty perfumes and not too bad on the purse either

    Chicklet 9 Dec 2017 10:33 PM

    You've got me curious now!

    Elunia 7 Dec 2017 9:48 PM

    Hum, I have never even thought of trying her perfumes. I know that she has a few but not that she had that many.

    Petal 6 Dec 2017 11:21 PM

    I tried one of her fragrances a long time ago but I can't remember which one. It was probably a lovely scent, but obviously it wasn't a memorable one.

    Snailor 6 Dec 2017 10:46 PM

    23 does sound a wee bit excessive!

    BeautifulJusty 6 Dec 2017 3:09 PM

    Nice image with all the champagne glasses. Am now intrigued to look into her unicorn fragrance more.

    Gilded 11 Dec 2017 9:23 AM

    Her style hasn't changed much over the years. Its still glittery, sparkly, blingy blingy bedazzle. But I guess she can afford to bathe in head-to-toe diamonds, all day, any day. :-)

    MelissaFay89 5 Dec 2017 11:44 PM

    It sounds nice

    onlyoni 5 Dec 2017 9:54 PM

    I wonder if she wears other perfumes besides her own.

    Ellelily 5 Dec 2017 8:38 PM

    I would love to be able to to create a perfume. But I couldn’t imagine creating 23.

    Miss19 5 Dec 2017 6:55 PM

    23 fragrances?! Wow that's a lot
