Jessica Simpson has become the latest in a long line of female celebrities to launch her own perfume. The star, 27, has signed a deal with Parlux fragrances - the company behind Paris Hilton's scent range - with Simpson joining the likes of Britney Spears, Gwen Stefani, Jennifer Lopez and Sarah Jessica Parker with her new smelly sideline.

The as-yet-unnamed perfume is expected to hit shelves in summer next year.

But it's not Simpson's first foray into the cosmetic world - the star released beauty range Dessert in 2004, which promised to make the wearer "look and feel as good as you taste."
