Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.The burlesque dancer is still Teese-ing her fans and keeping info scarce on her upcoming scent but she has told Women's Wear Daily in an interview that it will include "a lot of luscious flowers - Bulgarian rose, tiare, peony - and there's a sexy wood."
Earlier this year, Von Teese confirmed rumors of her first signature perfume via Twitter, saying she was "isolated at a chateau in the French countryside w/my perfumers," and that there would be "no fruit, no vanilla, no candy!! Velvet sensuality w/a dash of vulgarity!"
She later explained, also on Twitter: "I want to evoke passion with fragrance....intense love/lust and distaste/fear rather than merely popular acceptance."
Speaking to WWD, she explained: "My signature fragrance that I've been wearing since I was 14 is Quelques Fleurs, and I had to stop wearing it because my boyfriend [Louis Marie de Castelbajac]'s mother wore it...So that was a perfect time to develop my own fragrance."
The fragrance will launch in Australia this fall before being rolled out internationally next year.
