Ariana Grande Has Written Love Notes To Her Fans In The Form of Fragrance

Younger me truly believed that she was one of the biggest Arianators and that wearing all of Ari’s perfumes was a badge of honour. In fact, the first bottle of perfume I ever bought was the original ‘Ari,’ and I wore it with pride. I collected every scent up until REM which, when I tried it, wasn’t really my vibe so I left it on the Superdrug shelf rather reluctantly. I remember wanting to adore the fragrance as much as I adored all her others but it wasn’t going to happen, unfortunately. Never mind.

Now, several years later, smelling the original ‘Ari,’ is a whiff of nostalgia that brings me back to the naivety of my teenage self; ‘God is a Woman,’ is still my go-to “every day,” perfume that never gets old; ‘Sweet Like Candy,’ sits proudly on my cabinet awaiting its next wear. 

Ari’s scents never left me and they’ve become a staple. I usually wear at least one of them a week (usually ‘God is a Woman,’) and I always gravitate towards Ariana Grande products when peering over the perfume counter. 

That’s why I am elated to hear that she’s releasing some new scents! 

In an Instagram post six days ago, Ariana unveiled her new multi-fragrance collection ‘LOVENOTES,’ for those around the world to enjoy. The collection is her tenth fragrance-related release and it includes the exclusive scents ‘Vanilla Suede,’ ‘Angel’s Kiss,’ ‘Pink Woods,’ and ‘Pressed Petals.’ 

All four scents are exclusive as they are only available in certain parts of the globe. For example, ‘Vanilla Suede,’ is exclusive to the UK (and available from the 14/08/2024 at Boots), ‘Angel’s Kiss,’ is exclusive to Europe (and available from the 19/08/2024 at Douglas Cosmetics), ‘Pink Woods,’ is exclusive to North America (and available from the 15/09/2024 online & 27/09/2024 in stores at Ulta, Sephora and Kohls) and ‘Pressed Petals,’ is exclusive to Australia (and the date of availability is yet to be released). 

Being that it is now the 14th of August, the UK exclusive fragrance has now been released and Ariana acknowledged this in a recent post. The talented songstress captioned the post “LOVENOTES: VANILLA SUEDE is now exclusively available at bootsuk.” She then described the notes within the fragrance as “creamy sandalwood, rice milk and vanilla bean.” The notes within the other scents are yet to be known and we’re likely to find out on their release dates. If you want to find out more before then, I’d recommend giving Ariana a follow on instagram and keeping your eyes peeled for updates. If you’re lucky enough you can even take a trip to some of the stores stocking the new products and ask for details too. We can’t promise that they’ll tell all but it’s still well worth a try!
