I recently went to the lab to embark on the process of choosing my perfume!
I spent the day in New York City at the lab of Givaudan, a renowned fragrance company, to formulate my perfect scent!
This will be a long process and I will be back many times to make sure it is exactly the way I want it!
I also underwent a complete smell test with every perfume I like to make sure mine is nothing like those.
Without naming specific brands, what types of scents are you most drawn too—vanilla, musk, fruity, floral, other?

barbie says:
kim where did u get the outfit that your wearing in the pictures for your perfume? and how did u curl your hair like that? do u wear extensions?
and where do u buy your jewelery? your my idol kim!
KDJ says:
Kim so glad to hear you in the Big Apple! You need to let me be your tour guide. Actually, you've been here enough that you can probably show me some hot spots. LOL You need to do a post on some of the "fabulous finds" here in NY that would consist of things you purchased while shopping and nice restaurants. Oh I like floral scents.
angela says:
I like musky for sure. Fruity perfumes are just too over the top. I also like fresh scents, especially when they have an undertone of sandalwood or something for my musky fix. Orange blossom is also great.
amber wright says:
i personally like scents that are uniquely sweet...like cotton candy and baked desserts..scents that are fresh and fruity...like citrus and pineapple...and scents that are tropical!! hope this is helpful! good luck and i cant wait to see what you come up with! maybe a sweet and fruity combo? mmmmm, pineapple upside down cake!
paula says:
I dont like too fruity or too sweet. The one Im love with has floral notes, sweet and spicy elements. Do you know which one Im talking about? :)
Betty says:
I Agree with Amber! =]
I love fruity and citrus.
All types Like maybe Pineapple,apple,strawberries?
Those are the best!

kim u are too gorgeous! i LOVE the outfit you're wearing and the lab coat. u can even rock goggles! i prefer floral scents, and scents that are light, but still a little noticeable when someone hugs u. i hope u can find a scent that lasts throughout the day. good luck :)
Alexandra says:
Hiii Kim!!! I saw you on the Wendy Williams Show!! I loved it! You looked great. I personally like fruity and floral scents.
Isabella says:
you look cute in these pics! i like to use different scents for day and night, so for day i am drawn to more fruity light scents and for night i like a musky sexy scent
Anissia says:
U are so beautifuuuul Kim Love Ya ! <3
My types of scents are musk or something exotic.
Can we buy ur parfume in Switzerland ?
I hope that we can...
Kisses
Silks says:
Something fresh and unique!
Too many celeb fragrances are way too OTT... Make yours stand out and different from everyone elses!
You look stunning in the pics btw Kimxx
sara says:
Hi Kim - I personally think you need to go for a more fruity fragrance. I get the most compliments on frangrances like Escada. Good luck! Also, who designed that dress you wore on Jimmy Kimmel? I loved it and want to find it. Thanks!
Anonymous says:
Hi Kim, I think floral or Oriental. It's classic but sexy. Just like you! Can't wait until you launch out ur new perfume. Good luck! xoxoxo
Carla says:
Key Kim, love the show Keeping Up with the Kardashians! Its good to see a real family that's tied together with love. I personally love Vanilla scents, brown sugar kinda scents. To me its soothing and seems very natural. Hope this helps!
KDJ says:
Love the outfit Kim! I wouldn't wear that top to work. It would get me in tooooo much trouble, but the whole outfit looks good on you. That's the beauty of being your own boss - you can wear what you wanna wear when you wanna wear it. Your hair and make-up are flawless also. Don't change. I have to give you credit for helping me to step up my bangle game. I get a lot of my ideas for outfits from you being that we have similar figures. I don't have a "jingling baby" booty, but it aint no where nears flat. LOL And seeing you constantly working encourages me to keep my hustle up. I don't agree with everything you do, but it was never that serious. It's just entertainment!

Johnell says:
Your fit is on point!
Can't wait to see what you come up with.
Ms. T. says:
I hope this comment will post cuz the ones to your other posts didn't work )
I love your outfit - the same one you wore to the Wendy Williams show and at the end of the segment I think you said you were heading out to the fragrance place lol so there you have it. I like more of the musky scents or even a light floral mixed with musk - I tend to stay away from vanilla and flavor type scents - it's like you have food on you and it's kind of gross and not sexy or appealing in my opinion especially when it mixes with persperation it turns nasty! whereas musk only gets sexier and smells more personal and "human".
It's nice to see how much thought and effort you're putting in to come up with a really good scent instead of letting someone else do it and just attaching your name to it. I like the perfume that starts with Tr---- personally and a few others. A fresh talcom like scent is also nice. Good luck!!!
Persian goddess says:
i love anything that smells like vanilla!!!!
mitch says:
u look like a horse when u are not smiling! lol..=)
Val says:
Definitely VANILLA.....guys love it!!
christine says:

Anonymous says:
Kim you are absolutley beautiful!! looks like so much fun. I love perfume and I'm so excited you're coming out with one. I just hope it doesn't smell like mariah careys or J.los because they are just too similar. The scents are almost identical. I love fruity ones like vanilla etc.
Anggie says:
I'm excited about your new perfume!
I personally like fruity and sweet perfumes, but what do YOU like?

Katarina says:
Hi Kim,
I like orangy/lime scent, but in general I prefer elegant smelling fragrance, for example Armani Code for women.
Surprisingly I liked Hillary Duff's fragrance, even though I don't really like her.
Hopefully your fragrance will be sassy, elegant, spicy and exotic.

Sheba says:
Hi:)
That would be so cool to design your own perfume! I would love to do that! I really love perfumes and pretty scents! At home, at work, working out, all the time! I like fresh, floral scents in the daytime. I know you don't want specific names, but I can always find something I like at Victoria Secrets or Bath & Body Works.
In the night or in winter, I like musky scents which are a little more intense. Day or night, I love essential oils; natural scents...aromatherapy. Like Andrie, I get compliments on the way I smell at work:) That's fun! I also like really pretty bottles and sometimes save them even when they are empty.
The cookies in your picture are SO CUTE! I wonder what you will name your perfume?? How about "K?" That would be cool if your perfume is successful, you came out with a perfume line for different moods. That would be cool if you came out with one for men, too in the future!
Well, best wishes!
:) :) :) :)
sonya says:
What will the name be????? Slut-liscious!!!!! You are such a J-Lo wanna-be....The one thing you need to learn from J-Lo is....she doesn't exploit herself & she's very real.
Lydia says:
Heyyy Kim!
I like sweet and fruity scents! But then I also like scents that are soft and sexy. I know that your a big fan of Michael by Michael Kors so0o something similar to that would be perfect! Love ya LOTzZz! xOxO!
brie says:
What will you name it? I like fruity scents and Vanilla Scents. I think you're a great person, very diligent. I'm glad you're branching out, Kim!
How do you think you will design the bottle?
Good Luck!
Jordan says:
HI kim, that's cool your making your perfume! I'll get it if it smells good, since i'm only 13 you should make it so that younger girls can wear it too since i know there's a lot of girls that like you. So ya good luck! (:
GUSS says:
HI KIM, HOPE WE DONT HAVE TO WAIT TOO LONG FOR YOUR PERFUME. WHATEVER YOU CHOOSE I KNOW IT WILL BE JUST AS STUNNING AS YOU ARE!!!!!!

anyway, i got big ass.... but i don't feel secure having a big ass..... how do you pull it off????
Esmee says:
I love fruity parfums!
But why isn't youre parfume going to be availlable in the Netherlands?
Rachel says:
I can't stand when mediocre 'celebrities' make fragrances. Example: paris hilton. Leave that to the top dogs in the industry in movies, fashion and music. Does anyone feel me on that?
Christie says:
I like fragances with a fruity smells and I hate those that give a smell of soap, there's some that do but I dont think yours will! :-)
Brenda says:
Hey Kim,
I'm so happy that you're making your perfume! I would definitely be excited to make my own lol. I like fragrances that smell like cotton candy. Fruity and floral scents are really nice too!
Love,
Brenda.
Master Love says:
It's always a pleasure to gaze upon your loveliness,bless you.

Nelly.B says:
Hey Kim,
I like Brown Sugar & Fig from Bath & Body! I also like a number of Escada's perfume's...when I spray on a perfume I want to smell "sexy" if that makes sense. Like putting on a tight fitting black dress and some bad pumps...that kinda sexy!!! Afterall, perfume should make you feel sexy! Hope that helps a little!
Love Always,
Nelly.B
Paula says:
I honestly can't stand sweet smells such as cotton candy. I instantly try to avoid those types of scents. For the most part I'll go for something fresh.
Elaine says:
All i can say is Sandlewood is sexy, very alluring and mystirous.
Smells like Euporia Ck
and Midnight Dior make men melt...Hot
Mandee says:
I really like fresh scents. Similar to fresh laundry or soaps. Yeah even as perfumes!
GorJess says:
Gorgeous pics Kim,I think you should call it "Dashing" ;)
mariposa says:
I love clean fresh scents like Turquatic by MAC. They are universally liked b/c they aren't so strong and I ALWAYS get compliments since it is hard to find scents like that. Please do something similar and I will hop right on that!
Foxy says:
Hi Kim you look great as always ;)
Usually i like Floral clean fresh scents but I Love Coco Mademoiselle from Chanel the most.
Can't wait to smell your parfume.
take care kim
caryn cardashian says:

p.s. i DASHed into a dash store in sydney! i went beserk.
Tiffany says:
I like perfumes that are not too strong. I like light fruity or floral scents. But you should try and make yours original and different.
one of kim's fans says:
Kim, have you thought of a name for your first new perfume? I was just reading on gossip girls, Jessica Simpson, is launching her new perfume line she is going to name the perfume FANCY! Do you want any of the fans to give you an idea what you first new perfume should be named? I am reading where some of the fans are already starting to! lol thats very cute!
shawn says:
I think you should put something fruity and warm
---- says:

Tatiana...Kim's biggest fan! says:
Vanilla, Vanilla, Vanilla! In my opinion, that's the ultimate scent so I think your fragrance should definately incorporate vanilla to make it very sexy....and the bottle should be curvy just like you ;) I'll be first in line to get it!

ash says:

Jenn says:
I am excited to hear you are working on a fragrance! I personally like amber and vanilla scents. Nothing too fruity or musky, however I do like blackcurrant. Floral can be nice too, but don't over do it! Whatever you decide, be sure it's something that YOU love! Can't wait!! Good luck!!
Neecie says:
I like light fresh scents. A little floral. But put your heart into your work. It's all you. I can't wait to wear your scent. Please do you. You don't need something like Paris or Jennifer Lopez. DO YOU!!!!

VANILLA
You cannot go wrong with a vanilla base, I mean youve got to do something that has never been done before bc they are all starting to smell similar....but something tropical and warm and sexy seems it would fit your name.......
Renee Chacon says:
Hey Kim,
I am a really big fan of yours, I just wanted to ask you how much do you weigh? I know it is a personal question but i just thought that you are a real person and you would not mind answering that one for me. I love your style and your hair. Mine and your hair are almost identical. I just need to get back into pre-baby shape and we can pass for sisters... Love ya,
Naenae
Sabrina says:
Hey Kim! I am really glad you are choosing to make your own fragrance because I think everyone should have their own signature scent! I am really into Classic scents, nothing too cheap smelling. I love musks, but mostly a fragrance that is both musky and a floral. I love scents like sandalwood, patchouli (only as part of a perfume), geranium (omg.), jasmine, and lilac.
good luck Kim! :]
