Admit it — even though you’re a smart, no-nonsense, got-it-together (most of the time) mama, sometimes, it’s fun to let yourself get lost in the guilty pleasure of celebrity gossip. Whether it’s perusing the pages of an occasional Us Weekly, catching E! News Daily or simply tuning in to see what they’re wearing at an awards show, occasionally, getting caught up in the lives of Angelina, Jennifer and Reese — if only for a minute — can provide a fun escape from bottles and diapers.

If you’re looking to continue the fantasy just a bit longer, consider taking a whiff of one of the latest celebrity-created fragrances, many of which capture the emotions and attitudes their creators are best known for. Though the thought of a celebrity perfumer may sound a little odd (seriously, what does rapper P. Diddy know about women’s fragrances?), these scents are actually incredibly wearable and anything but flashy. Below, find our favorite celebrity scents for spring and our tips on the perfect occasions in which to wear them. Sadly, the star’s bank account doesn’t come with the bottle, but the good news is that the camera-toting paparazzi won’t either.

L, a L.A.M.B. Fragrance by Gwen Stefani.
Stefani’s debut fragrance is the perfect expression of her iconic, funky style. A fusion of masculine and feminine, it can best be described as a luscious, fresh fruity-floral scent with a distinct wraps sensual musk undertone. A great daytime fragrance, it’s perfect for days at the park or casual family get-togethers. $55 at sephora.com

Covet by Sarah Jessica Parker.
Covet, the new fragrance from Sarah Jessica Parker is an ultrafeminine blend of Sicilian lemon, chocolate, honeysuckle, musk and vetiver. What sounds like a hodge podge of random smells is actually a marriage of lovely scents, rendering the perfect nigh-out fragrance that is subtle, not overpowering. $52 at nordstrom.com.

M By Mariah.
The debut fragrance from recording superstar Mariah Carey is a harmonious mix of velvety, sensual scents. The featured note is Tahitian Tiare flower, and exotic, decidedly feminine flower. This one, much like Mariah herself – isn’t subtle, but it is beautiful if you can pull off a strong scent. Dab a small amount on before a big evening out when you want to make a statement. $53, sephora.com.
Deseo by Jennifer Lopez.
Electrifying, earthy and feminine, this perfume — the latest from new mom Jennifer Lopez — she was inspired by a midnight walk in Jennifer’s flower garden just before a thunderstorm. Fittingly, the fragrance has notes of watery bamboo leaves and floral notes including garden yuzu, freesia, star jasmine, pink geranium flower, orange blossom. This light, airy fragrance is wonderful for daytime, especially one spent at the pool or beach. $46 at amazon.com.
With Love… Hillary Duff

Hillary Duff may appeal more to the younger set, bet her signature fragrance is very adult. Exotic fruits add an intriguing sparkle to rich woods and sultry ambers, making for a warm, sexy fragrance that’s anything but teenybopper. Wear this one on your next date night! $45 at sephora.com.

Unforgivable Woman by Sean Combs.
Even though he’s a male, Sean “Diddy” Combs knows a thing or two about women – or at least how they should smell. His women’s scent is unquestionably sexy, combining bergamot, orange flower, jasmine and coco de mer. The result: a feminine, seductive scent perfect for an evening outdoor party. $64 at amazon.com.
