I think it’s more of a nostalgic association that I have with it because a boyfriend had bought it for me when I was, like, 16. Kat Von D
Roberto Cavalli is a great designer. The Just Cavalli brand is very sexy, young and cool.

I always have mini bottles of Unbreakable, the fragrance I did with my husband. I’m Armenian, so I’m oily and always have blotting papers. Khloe Kardashian
I’m definitely of the ‘less is more’ mentality, and what I really appreciate is that fragrance is chemical, and it changes with your body throughout the day. It’s a very deeply personal thing. One smell on one person isn’t the same on another, and I appreciate the uniqueness of that experience. Chris Pine
