Beyoncé Unveils New Perfume 'Cé Noir', Now Available for Pre-Order
'Cé Noir': Beyoncé's First Fragrance Since 2011 Includes Notes of Clementine and Honey, Costing $160 Per Bottle; Shipping Begins in November
- Beyoncé's new perfume, 'Cé Noir,' was officially announced on her social media, attracting more than 500,000 likes in less than 24 hours. The perfume's name, translating roughly to 'this black' in French, may be a nod to its creation in France.
- The 'Cé Noir' packaging follows a 'Renaissance'-theme with a silver chrome-plated bottle with sharp edges, showing resemblances to the futuristic and otherworldly aesthetics of her recent Renaissance World Tour look.
- The perfume, costing $160 per bottle, includes notes of clementine, golden honey, rose absolute, jasmine sambac, Namibian myrrh, and golden amber. The presence of golden honey may be indicative of a homage to her fan base, known as the BeyHive.
- 'Cé Noir' is Beyoncé's first perfume release since 2011's 'Heat.' Unlike 'Heat's' fire-themed red packaging and different scent notes, 'Cé Noir' embodies Beyoncé's current 'vibe' according to Vogue.
- The fragrance, which has begun shipping in November, was made available for pre-order immediately following the announcement. Special gifts accompanied the initial purchases while supplies lasted.
