PRECIOUS JEWEL BY ASHANTI
Written by Yvette Coleman

It would be hard not to love her. Beautiful, gifted, driven, and down to earth persona wrapped up into one individual. Ashanti. Her name has traveled amongst the heavy weights of Pop and R&B culture around the globe with chart topping musical hits, movies, and now a fragrance.

Ashanti’s sought after talent has put her in the position to influence young adolescents and women to walk in her shoes. Her humbling appeal and sexy fun attitude makes this new fragrance the perfect next step.

PRECIOUS JEWEL BY ASHANTI is named simply by keeping in mind the people she has kept close to her: family and her fans. Being hands on and descriptive to every detail this project remained all Ashanti from the love of fresh and light fragrances of fruits, like peach, apples, and bergamot; then revealing a middle layer of stronger floral scents like jasmine, ylang-ylang, rose, orchid and lily of the valley; leaving a sensual base note of sandalwood, musk and hints of oak moss…all in which will capture the attention of women of all ages.

While developing her project Ashanti kept all of her fans in mind by allowing the accessibility of her product to be sold in the largest retailer across the country WAL-MART.

The crystal-clear Precious Jewel Eau de Toilette in a charming bottle with a hanging rhinestone has the price range of Price: $15.00 (0.5 oz)

Between making chart-topping music and acting on the big screen, Grammy Award Winning Ashanti gives the inside scoop on her new fragrance PRECIOUS JEWEL BY ASHANTI

From recording artist to fragrance developer – what inspired you to start a perfume line?

The inspiration really stems from my music career. I wanted to pay a tribute to all my fans who have supported me throughout the years by creating a signature scent that would be accessible to everyone.

Did you face any challenges creating your perfume line?

I wanted everything to be perfect! I must’ve driven the fragrance developers nuts by making sure everything was exactly how I envisioned – from the actual scent to the packaging. I’m so pleased with the final product that it made all the attention to detail worth it.

Where did the name “Precious Jewel” come from?

This project was very precious to me. I wanted to choose a name that represented woman and would grab the attention of women of all ages. All women are precious jewels!

Why did you choose to launch your Precious Jewel by Ashanti through Wal-Mart?

Wal-mart is perfect for the fragrance I had in mind. Like I said – it was all about making my scent accessible to all my fans

– and what better way than to sell the fragrance through Wal-mart -- there are stores all over the country, and I love the fact that a consumer can buy my CD and fragrance at the same time. (They can also buy everything else they need at Wal-mart!)
