Agreement Covers Fragrance, Colour Cosmetics and Skincare; First Fragrance Due in Department Stores in Fall 2004
The licensing agreement includes the development, marketing, and distribution of fragrance, skincare, and colour cosmetics with Britney Spears' exclusive endorsement. The first product to be introduced will be a fragrance, to debut in prestige department stores in Fall 2004. Britney is personally involved in all aspects of product development, in order to bring her own style and personality to the fragrance, packaging and marketing. "I love perfume and cosmetics," said Britney, "and am so excited to develop my own line with Elizabeth Arden."
"We are delighted to be working with Britney Spears," said Paul West, president of Elizabeth Arden. "She is a talented, fashionable woman who appeals to a young and international consumer base. Together with our Department Store trade partners, we will introduce a glamorous fragrance concept to the U.S. market in the fall, and we look forward to the launch of
the new brand."

"They have already demonstrated superb creativity and exceptional commitment to building this key category of Britney's licensing program into a huge retail
success."
