When asked which celebrities the nation would most like to see create their own fragrance, over 1 in 10 Brits admit that they would like to smell as sweet as the loveable rogue himself and would support the comedian’s very own perfume venture… if it was ever to be invented.

King and Queen of the sofa, Holly Willoughby and Philip Schofield also came out smelling sweet with almost a quarter (23%) of the nation crowning the golden duo as the couple they would most like to buy his and her scents from.

The Perfume Shop are the largest supplier of celebrity scents (selling approximately 1.5 million bottles in 2013), found that almost a third (29%) of Brits, when asked to rank their celebrity scent sweethearts, put David Beckham at the top of the scentometer awarding him as the Best Smelling Male Celebrity. The gorgeous footballer was swiftly followed by George Clooney who is a close second with a quarter (24%) of the nation stating that they trust the heart-throb’s scent to be pretty good too. Geordie lass Cheryl Fernandez-Versini beat Victoria Beckham to the top of the poll for the ladies by a fraction with a quarter (25%) of the UK admitting that the X Factor lass is likely to smell of all things nice.
