Barbara Orbison has launched a perfume named "Pretty Woman" after Roy Orbison's well-known song. Barbara Orbison, the widow of the late singer, wrote about the perfum on the Pretty Women perfume website.
fter all these years of mixing my own perfume (which I have been dabbling in since finding this scent when I was thirteen years old), perfecting it throughout my life and marriage to Roy - it's finally here and I can't wait for you to try it.
I feel a scent should be mysterious and draw the world into you. I'm always being asked over and over again, “what are you wearing?” Now at last I’m able to share my secret with you!
A press release says the fragrance contains notes of florals, spices and woods.
Barbara was involved in every step of the development of the fragrance from its bottle design in Paris to the formulation of the scent. Like the notes of a song, the fragrance opens to reveal a melody of florals, spices and woods. The top note introduces a crisp bergamot accent and it continues with a vivacious middle note blend of stargazer lily, red rose and carnation, releasing a base note that is a harmonious mixture of fresh amber, patchouli, vanilla, atlas cedar and sacred incense.
The perfume costs $80 and can be purchased at The Cardinal Boutique and a the Pretty Women perfume website. A portion of the proceeds from the perfume sales will be donated to the Renal Cancer Research Department at The University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston.
