This year, it was all about the celeb fragrance — whether it was Paris Hilton flinging her Fairy Dust [1] our way or Anne Hathaway being Magnifique in one comment-provoking ad [2].

Harajuku Lovers by Gwen Stefani.

OK, as long-time readers know, I didn't dig these scents [4], but fragrance is so subjective, eh? For me, I really enjoyed Tom Ford White Patchouli [5], a hauntingly sexy scent. Need more top choices from 2008? Be sure to take a peek at the rest of favorites across the Sugar network [6] right now.
