Billie Eilish perfumes reviewed: Your Turn, No 1 and No 2 notes, price and lasting power
Confession time. When it comes to perfume, I can be a bit of a boujee biotch. My favourite scents of all time include Le Labo The Noir 29, Byredo Bal D'Afrique and Maison Crivelli Safran Secret all clocking in at over £200 for the pleasure of smelling fabulous. I'm great at sniffing out a good dupe but I can't lie, the spenny spritzes get me hook, line and sinker. However, one area I am constantly pleasantly surprised, is celebrity perfumes. Britney did it first with Fantasy and since then a number of stars have been cashing in on the scent-game.
I love Rihanna's Fenty EDP a lot, Ariana Grande Cloud is a big hit and Bella Hadid's Orebella Salty Muse is a newcomer in heavy rotation. But, if I was to award a celebrity perfume with a 'love them as much a some of my most expensive scents' it would be Billie Eilish perfumes, specifically, Your Turn. The star has a trio of scents available in the UK; Eilish, Eilish No. 2 and Your Turn, each with a unique scent profile and I'm so impressed considering they start from just £35. Here's my in-depth reviews on all three.
I tested these scents over the period of three months, rotating them with my normal favourites. I noted how long each lasted on my skin and my clothes compared to my most expensive Eau de Parfums.
Top notes – Sugar, Red Berries and Mandarin OrangeMiddle notes – Vanilla, Cacao, Spicy Notes and RoseBase notes – Tonka Bean, Amber, Musk and Woody Notes
I say: At first sniff this is super sweet for me. Vanilla is the immediate note that pulls through as soon as you spray and is the lingering note as the perfume wears away. For such an affordable scent, it has decent longevity on the skin and even better on clothes – I would say this is the case across all three of the stars' scents.
For me, this scent is a little too sweet, like artificially so, with the likes of vanilla and cacao in the middle and sugar, red berries and orange on the top. If you go crazy for Sol de Janeiro body mists you with likely love the sweetness of this scent.
Reviews say: "This is definitely my favourite perfume. It's a soft and sexy scent that makes me feel so girly. I can't wear a lot of perfumes because they are too strong, but not this one. When someone hugs me, they always say, you smell so good! What are you wearing? I have been wearing this scent for 3 years and will continue to until they stop making it. Love it!!!"
Pssst! Both Eilish and Eilish No 2 are in our Cosmo x Boots Beauty Box! The box costs just £55 and you get over £280 worth of products! Don't miss out before they sell out...

Top notes – Bergamot, Apple Blossom and IncenseMiddle notes – Black Pepper, Papyrus and PoppyBase notes – Palo Santo, Ebony, Vanilla and Musk
I say: Again, this scent definitely has a gorgeous sweetness to it, but this time the musky and woody note pull through and make this a way more unisex and IMO a more grown up scent that Eilish.
At first spritz, it's honestly pretty fresh and floral, thanks to the apple blossom and leans into a perfect spring/summer scent, but the dry down screams warm, woody and creamy (thanks to the ever present vanilla note). The sillage (which is perfume talk for the trail of scent that perfume leaves) is perfect for a sext summer's eve.
Reviews say: "This is the best sent I've ever smelt my daughter is the biggest billie eilish fan she's in love with it! She's very exited to get no.3!!"
Billie Eilish Your Turn Eau De Parfum 30ml
If you like creamy, woody and musky scents a la Santal 33 or Santal Vanille from 7 Virtues, you'll love this. It's light, warming and not at all overpowering. To me, it's a warm cozy cuddle from a person that you find incredibly sexy. The base notes including Iso E Super means it's going to enhance your natural pH scent and read a little differently on everyone.
Top notes – Cardamom, Ginger and BergamotMiddle notes – Coconut Water, Peach and Night Blooming JasmineBase notes –Australian Sandalwood, Musk and Iso E Super
Reviews say: "It strikes me as a much more wearable Santal 33, after owning it for a few months. Well done Billie & your frag partners! I'll probably be buying a second bottle at some point. It has become one of those bottles in my collection that I find myself craving."

Rihanna Wears Sheer Blue Chanel Gown to ‘The Smurfs' World Premiere
THE RUNDOWN On Saturday, Rihanna attended the world premiere of Smurfs in Brussels wearing a custom Chanel ensemble in baby blue. Rihanna voices the character of Smurfette in the new animated movie. Her chiffon top was constructed with layers of sheer fabric that swung lightly over her torso—she and her partner, A$AP Rocky, revealed they were expecting their third child at the Met Gala in May this year. Under the top, which was hung with dangling crystals and feathers, she wore a long silk skirt in the same delicate shade with embroidery along the hem. She had her hair half up and wore several pieces of delicate jewelry around her neck and wrists. By her side, A$AP Rocky was wearing a striped red-and-white button-down shirt and a red and blue tie. He was wearing wide-legged slacks and a pair of dark sunglasses. Both stars have been in Paris the last few days, first making an appearance at a show for the Dior menswear collection. Rihanna wore an embroidered cape-style coat over a mint green vest and button-down, while the rapper wore a brightly striped Dior tie. They then appeared at Rocky's show for AWGE as part of Paris Fashion Week. They were joined by their son, Riot Rose, making his fashion show debut. Rihanna was wearing a loose button-down shirt in a blue and red stripe pattern that opened over her belly, paired it with a pleated black miniskirt. She accessorized with white pointed-toe heels with criss-crossed laces over tall gray socks. She left her long hair down in gentle waves and wore a number of different chains and pendants of different lengths. Riot was also styled for the night, wearing purple pants, Vans, and a cute denim jacket over a white T-shirt.

Rihanna Wears Baby Blue Chanel to the Premiere of Smurfs
For the premiere of Smurfs in Brussels, Rihanna went for custom Chanel. The singer, and her partner A$AP Rocky, attended the Belgian premiere of the children's film on Saturday, June 28. Nodding to the occasion, Rihanna wore an almost Smurf blue look from the French house—choosing a celadon green silk chiffon top and skirt. Its sheer fabric was embroidered with crystals, porcelain sequins, and feathers; overall, it took the atelier 840 hours to make. The look was inspired by Chanel haute couture's spring 2003 collection. At the time, Vogue's review of the collection focused on its daintiness: 'The fondant colors—palest pink, peach and blue—the overlays of black lace and the scatterings of silver sequins made every piece a vision of femininity. This was a triumphant collection for Lagerfeld, as realistically wearable as it was dreamily desirable,' wrote Vogue's Sarah Mower. 'From first to last, the clothes were an exquisite achievement, crafted with such deftness and sweetness of color that even the house tweed evaporated into sparkling nothingness at the edges.' It seems that Rihanna's outfit is a perfect continuation of this sentiment. Recently, Rihanna and A$AP Rocky have been on a style grand tour of Europe. Yesterday in Paris, they attended Jonathan Anderson's debut menswear collection for Dior. Rihanna wore a white button down overlaid with a pistachio green waistcoat, whereas A$AP Rocky wore a striped red-green-and-royal blue Dior tie. Then, the pair headed to the Temple de l'Etoile, where Rocky was debuting his latest collection for AWGE. And today, it was straight to Brussels for Smurfs, a movie in which Rihanna voices the character of Smurfette. Will this be their last stop, or do they have more high-fashion looks to debut on the continent? Only time—and the paparazzi—will tell.

Why is Rihanna in Belgium this weekend? Hint: Smurfs
BRUSSELS (AP) — Belgium rolled out the blue carpet Saturday for Rihanna and other stars who turned out for the world premiere of the new Smurf movie. Rihanna produced ″Smurfs″ and voices Smurfette in the summer family film, a live-action animated reboot that takes the little creatures on a Smurfette-led rescue mission to save Papa Smurf. At Saturday's showing in Brussels, the visibly pregnant Grammy winner chatted with children, linked arms with someone dressed as her cartoon alter-ego, and joined the audience arm in arm with A$AP Rocky. Film director Chris Miller held Smurf toys and other cast members at the premiere included James Corden and Dan Levy. Many of the guests wore a shade of Smurf-ish blue. The movie premieres in the U.S. on July 18. Belgian comics artist Peyo created the Smurfs — known here as ″Schtroumpfs″ — and the Belgian capital embraced the premiere with a weekend of events. It took place in central Brussels, not far from a Smurf museum. The city's famed Mannekin Pis statue was dressed for the occasion as No Name Smurf. The city's Grand-Place held Smurf-themed events all weekend, and tourist buses and train cars were decorated in blue.
