Of course we musn’t forget to mention Paris Hilton who won the award for Female Celebrity Fragrance of the Year but then we already knew that.

Vote For Your Favourite Fragrances

Last week I mentioned that Paris Hilton had been nominated for an award (Celebrity of the Year) at this year’s Annual US FiFi Awards ceremony to be held later this month. Her most recent fragrance, Fairy Dust was also nominated in the category Women’s LUXE but didn’t make the final cut it seems.

I personally voted for my current favourite, Estée Lauder’s Sensuous, which incidentally won the Best New Prestige Female Fragrance award at the UK FiFi event in April. You can see all the UK award winners here.
