On Nov. 15, Kim Kardashian officially released her newest fragrance line as part of KKW Beauty. The line includes three limited edition scents: Crystal Gardenia, Crystal Gardenia Citrus, and Crystal Gardenia Oud. But what do Kim Kardashian's perfume crystals mean? Kim Kardashian’s terrifying Paris robbery actually inspired her latest fragrance venture. In a new interview with WWD, the KKW Beauty founder revealed how her robbery helped inspire her new fragrance, Crystal Gardenia. “Honestly, after my Paris situation [when she was held at gunpoint and robbed], a lot of my friends would come over and bring me healing crystals,” she explained to WWD. “It’s very L.A.”
Not only did crystals inspire her newest fragrance collection, but she designed the bottle’s shape as a crystal too. Each purchase comes with crystals in addition to the perfume. Developing the three scents — Crystal Gardenia, Crystal Gardenia Citrus and Crystal Gardenia Oud — was about “being calm and healing,” Kardashian told WWD. Her signature scent has top notes of water lily, timeless gardenia, tiara flower and velvet tuberose. Crystal Gardenia Citrus includes top notes of sparkling citrus, woods and musks, while Crystal Gardenia Oud has top notes of bergamot, lavender, red rose and jasmine.
You can pick your own starting on KKW's fragrance site and in stores for a limited time at Violet Grey in L.A. And if it sells out, don't fret. According to WWD, KKW has more fragrance plans in the works, with another brand-new launch coming by Valentine's Day. Maybe this time, Kim will use an orchid as her inspiration...
