Madonna's nine year old daughter, Lourdes, went perfume shopping recently:
She was spotted sampling several different fragrances with her nanny in tow at the Miller Harris perfumery in London's trendy Mayfair before finally deciding on one.
No word on which fragrance except that it was one of the "house classics". Read more in Lifestyle Extra.
Carmen Electra and her husband Dave Navarro apparently wear Ebba's Miss Marisa perfume oil.

Today Marlen and I are discussing Terre d’Iris, one of the scents in the Miller Harris Nouvelle Edition line. The notes for Terre d’Iris are bergamot, bitter orange, southern herbs, rosemary, clary sage, orange flowers, rose, patchouli, tree moss, fir balsam and iris.
He says: Being a huge fan of Iris, especially the warmer, more buttery notes, I recently swapped for Terre d’Iris, described to me by the swapper as “Miller Harris Terre de Bois meets Hermès Hiris.” I was surprised by how much I love this scent at first testing, and subsequent wearings have only increased my enthusiasm. What I get is a rich, deep, buttery iris note…
Jasmin Vert is one of the Nouvelle Edition fragrances from Miller Harris, and has notes of boronia flowers, green mandarin, grapefruit, jasmine sambac, rose, jonquil, violet leaves, santal, foin absolute.
Jasmin Vert starts very bright and effervescent, with a touch of citrus and hints of sweet summer fruits. It stays bright and summery as it dries down into a ripe, full jasmine with subtle traces of jonquil and hay. It is perhaps a tad indolic, but not overly so. My nose is probably jaded by all the deep green scents I am wearing this summer (Miller et Bertaux no. 3, Gobin Daude Sous le Buis, and CB I Hate Perfume CB 93), but I find it lightly green at most.
It is a wonderful summer perfume for jasmine fans…
