Alicia Keys is bringing the sweet smell of success to a store near you. The R&B singer has been named the new face of Givenchy perfume.


This is Keys’ first beauty contract ever in her career. The Grammy-winning artist and mom will appear in advertising for the still-untitled perfume in September.


“I’m honored to introduce the world to the newest scent by Givenchy said Keys in a statement (via Women’s Wear Daily). “Givenchy has long been one of the world’s most iconic luxury fashion houses, and a personal favorite of mine.”


She also shared her excitement on Twitter.


The ‘Girl on Fire’ singer joins such music artists as Erykah Badu who posed for Givenchy’s Spring 2014 collection and Justin Timberlake, who promoted Givenchy’s Play Ads back in 2012.


Keys is a very busy woman these days. The piano diva just released ‘It’s On Again‘ featuring Kendrick Lamar, which is featured in ‘The Amazing Spider-Man 2′ movie. In addition, the New York City native is working on her sixth project with Pharrell Williams. “She’s gonna get ready to do something super next level,” he says.


Congratulations to Alicia Keys on her perfume deal with Givenchy.
