#MYNewYork – Rita Ora
The world was introduced to Rita Ora back in 2012 with her first hit single Hot Right Now, which went straight to number 1 on charts. Rita was announced as DKNY My New York perfume ambassador. She tells us more about scents and New York.
What is it about New York that makes it your “MYNY”?
MYNY is special to me because as an artist I am always looking for inspiration, and I often find that among the people and places in New York.
What is your first memory of scent?
My mother’s perfume! She got it made by my father at a perfumery in Paris and every time I smell it, there is a distinct romantic memory that I will never forget.
Where do you like to spritz your perfume?
In my hair, because the fragrance holds well there. I also spray behind my ear and on my wrists. I spritz everywhere before a photo shoot!
How do you think music and fragrance are similar?
They are both developed by artists and are sensorial experiences. The final product consists of a series of notes and makes an emotional and memorable connection with its audience.
Available at Red square and leading retailers from 22 September.
