This weekend marked the debut of two more celebrity fragrances to hit the perfume counters this fall. Faith Hill and Queen Latifah both unveiled new products on Friday, joining the ranks of other celebrity scent-makers like Britney Spears, Hilary Duff and Jennifer Lopez.
Faith Hill Parfums is a flowery and fruity eau de toilette containing notes of magnolia, peony and crisp pear. Retailing for $17 for a 1-oz. bottle, the scent will be available come October, according to People.

Queen by Queen Latifah will be a spicy, exotic eau de parfum spray featuring notes of mandarin, jasmine, cognac, Moroccan coriander and Egyptian musk. The product will launch in August and retail for $49 for a 1.7-oz. bottle.
Latifah, who is no stranger to the beauty market as spokesperson for Cover Girl's Queen Collection, will be starring in print advertisements for the scent.
"Beauty really does start on the inside," Latifah said, according to People. "It's like a state of mind, a state of love, if you will. So I see a fragrance as just a natural expression of this state of love: Scent expresses a woman's confidence and sensuality, it's how she embraces her body, her mind and her strength."
