KYLIE Minogue’s new perfume will be known as “Darling” around the world, but in Australia she expects people just to call it “Darl”. The Australian singer held the global launch of her first fragrance tonight at a mansion in Sydney’s exclusive Vaucluse. “Darling, it’s such a warm word. I use it with my friends, my mother uses it with me and it’s a little bit showbiz,” Minogue said. Wearing a black, knee-length, Audrey Hepburn-style dress decorated with Bulgari diamonds, Minogue said she expected Aussies wouldn’t be able to resist shortening the name.

I hope that it not only makes me smell like Kylie, but will endow me with any other adorable attributes she exhibits. If not, I’ll be asking for my money back. Even though that is in no way what the perfume promises to deliver.
