Fergie's 'Outspoken' Fragrance, makeup, musicians, reviews | (2)
A while back we were debating the name of Fergie's debut fragrance. Turns out it's actually called "Outspoken" and not "Fergalicious", as Brianne suggested. Bummer!

That does sum up Fergie's persona! OK, now on to how the fragrance actually smells. The top notes are frozen blackberry, starfruit and saffron; the mid notes are tuberose, jasmine and passion flower; and the base notes are ...

Tired of the traditional of "luxury" perfumes that retails for $65, but costs $2 to produce, Kilian created his own line of luxury fragrances ...
