Katy Perry knows how to look killer when she steps out (we just have to think back to those date-night pictures of the pop singer and Justin Trudeau when they hard-launched their romance). And her latest campaign with Dolce & Gabbana just confirms it.
We talk to the singer, entrepreneur, philanthropist and Dolce & Gabbana Beauty ambassador after her shoot in Capri about her favourite scent memories, her devotion to her daughter, and paying it forward with music.
On working With Dolce &Gabbana
“I admire the work of Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana. I love their creative boldness, unmistakable style and connection with their roots, which is evident in everything they do. They built this brand from the ground up, and it has evolved so magnificently over the decades.”
On Capri
“Its beautiful topography is the perfect setting for the most incredible parties, romances, celebrations. There’s so much life and authentic Italian vibes, it’s like the whole of Italy on one small island. I brought my mum and her friend [as I shot the D&G campaign].
“The scent of ocean and salty crisp air take me back to Santa Barbara, where I was born. And the scent of vanilla, which I’ve been wearing since I was 15.”
On What’s Important
“My daughter, Daisy Dove, love and music. First of all, being a mother. And secondly, music changed my life, and I try to pay that forward through the work of my Firework Foundation, which empowers children from under-served communities by igniting their inner light through the arts.
“Music changed my life, and I try to pay that forward.”
On The New Dolce & Gabbana My Devotion Intense
“It’s very luscious and sweet. I’m very particular about my scent, and I’ve never really strayed far from certain ingredients. Devotion is my new elevated version of that cocktail. It felt so authentically me. I felt cosy and sweet and young and delicious. It felt like flirting and falling in love for the first time.”
Dolce & Gabbana My Devotion eau de parfum Intense, 100ml, $285 is available now at David Jones.
