Fragrance Direct has a brand new product arrival to announce, and it’s quite a big one… it’s the first fragrance from the music legend that is Madonna!

Born in Bay City, Michigan in 1958,  Madonna Ciccone won a dance scholarship at the University of Michigan, but eventually dropped out of college and moved to New York in 1978 to work as a backing dancer. She formed a band with her then boyfriend, which led to meetings with record executives, and her debut single was released in 1982. From there, Madonna has gone on to become one of the most important female artists of her generation, known throughout the world as the Queen of Pop.

Aside from her pop success, Madonna has since branched out into many other projects, including fashion and fragrance. The debut fragrance from Madonna is called Truth or Dare, an eau de parfum spray which has been created as an expression of Madonna and her personality, a truly personal fragrance.

The scent is floral and sensual, opening with top notes of gardenia, creamy tuberose and neroli, blending with a heart of jasmine, benzoin and white lily, all of which sits on top of a smooth base of vanilla, caramelised amber and sensual musk accords.

Here at Fragrance Direct we have a selection of products available from the Madonna Truth or Dare range. The signature eau de toilette spray is available in three different sizes; 30ml (£20.99), 50ml (£26.99) and 75ml (£35.99). Furthermore, the 50ml and 75ml bottles come with a Madonna printed t-shirt as a free gift! There are accompanying Truth or Dare body lotions and shower gels also in stock.

Make sure you head on over to the main Fragrance Direct website to check out our full  Madonna Truth or Dare product collection.

Fragrance Direct is pleased to announce a brand new product collection to hit our shelves, from one of our most popular brands, Hugo Boss; the Boss Bottled Sport range of fragrances and toiletries for men.

Boss Bottled Sport eau de toilette spray for men is the newest male scent to be added to the Hugo Boss collection, and has been described as a fresh and energetic fragrance. The scent opens with top notes of grapefruit and aldehydes, which then flow into a heart of lavender and cardamom, all of which is finally rounded off with a smooth base of vetiver accords.

Fragrance Direct has a number of products from the Boss Bottled Sportcollection on offer, including aftershaves, deodorants and shower products, as well as the signature eau de toilette sprays.

Formula 1 driver Jenson Button has been named the ambassador of the Boss Bottled Sport collection. A former World Champion, Button said of his association with the brand: “I am charmed to be the ambassador of Boss Bottled Sport. I was in a hurry really to take part in this very emblematic publicity campaign. This perfume takes as a starting point the mental preparation, a weapon which I use at each season for each of the 19 races.”
