Since Ariana Grande shot to fame in 2013, she has yet to leave the spotlight. Besides her chart-topping hits, Grande has a well known and developing sense of style -from the cat ears in her early days to her staple high ponytail- and along with dropping songs, she also consistently drops new fragrances to add to her line of perfumes. These are not throw-away money grabs, either, but rather a set of well-developed scents that rival some designer brands.

They are a tantalizing bit of advertising, designed to both catch your attention and try to convey the tone of the perfume they hold.
