Well, it looks like moving to the States has been a very good decision for Victoria and David Beckham. Sure, David's wonky ankle has been keeping him off the field—but you can't keep a good couple down. Today, WWD reveals the couple's latest endeavor: Intimately Beckham, a his-and-hers fragrance duo that launches Stateside next month.
"Why is this different from any other celebrity fragrance? The fact that [I] have spent a lot of time checking all the details," explains Victoria Beckham. "We are not just saying, 'We are celebrities, put our name on it.' I love to be involved with the whole process."

Intimately Beckham for Him has top notes of bergamot, grapefruit and cardamom; a heart of violet, nutmeg and star anise, and sandalwood, patchouli and amber base notes. It sounds intriguing, particularly the cardamom notes.
Intimately Beckham For Her features Victoria's favorite scent, tuberose. "I like how it's young, fresh, modern, but it still reminds me of my grandmother," she says. "It is a smell that's not going to date." Along with tuberose, the fragrance features top notes of bergamot and rose; middle notes of Casablanca lily and orange blossom; and a musky drydown of vanilla and sandalwood.
Priced at $25 for 0.5 ounces to $55 for 2.5 ounces, both fragrances will be at Kohl's, JC Penney, Ulta and Sears next month. If you can't get enough Beckhams, you're in luck: Victoria hinted at another signature fragrance for 2008, and a makeup line to debut in Japan in October. Now if we could just see Becks score a goal or two, we'll be all set!

I'm not a huge fan of celebrity fragrances...
1Someone said the first one sucked but I don't know how far true that is. Certain celeb fragrances are really good. J.Lo's live always gets me compliments.
2All celebs say "I wanted to be involved in the whole process"!!! It's like they all have the same publicist who tells them to say that.
3The Fembot looks scarier than usual in this pic
4I dislike most celebrity fragrances too, but for me it's different with fashionista Victoria Beckham. It would be really interesting to see what V thinks smells good, good enough to put her name on it.
I know this sounds weird, but it's the part where it's going to be sold at places like Kohls & Sears. It kinda dampers the Beckham experience for me, it's not-so-exclusive. I don't mean to say slap a $100 price tag on it, but... I don't know. Anyone get what I'm saying?
5Oh, girl. You ain't special. It's just another way for you to make money. If it smells awesome, I'll wear it regardless, but I'll lie if someone asks me what it is!
6On sale at Kohl,s and Sears sounds about right.
7i have this and i am not just saying it but i love it-everytime i have it on someone complaments me-its fab x
8LOL Victorias face in that pic

13well since his first one (instinct) was promoted that it would be in kohl's i am glad hers is finally here because it was too expensive for me on ebay! i hope she promotes it in mags. and maybe free samples? hope it smells good and does well.
14great job on the headline!
15Im not knocking it till i tried it...its sold out in stores around Europe so i guess there must be an attraction to the perfume!
Anyway i cant imagine it smelling bad....i bet it smells rich and elegant lol
